Cbc Reports

My daughter's (2 yrs) cbc came back. It seemed fine but I was wondering what would cause white blood count to drop from 13.0 (sick, on gluten and 10 months ago) to 7.4 today (off gluten 4 months) Both results fit within the normal range but just wondering if a drop is normal. And her platelet count went from 338 to 297. all in normal range but just wondering again if the drop is normal or needs to be watched. Her eosinophil number went from above normal to the low end of the range.

Her Igg level is below as well. Her Igg Subclass 1 is LOW. So that is something to watch over time.

Just wondering if anyone knew??

Thanks

Can't speak specifically to these things but I noticed that several of my blood markers adjusted within the normal range by large levels from the time I was diagnosed with celiac until my next checkup.

I would not be the least bit worried about her results. Her numbers are within range - they are perfectly fine. Numbers change constantly. A CBC, especially, changes all the time - i.e., numbers change depending on how hydrated you are, for example. The fact is, if someone is not symptomatic, even results that are mildly out of range are not something to be worried about. I would not be at all concerned. (By the way, I'm a registered nurse).

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
