Congratulations. I know you must feel awesome with that great news. My toddler was dx'd in early march. Her test just read greater than 100 then, and when we retested last week, it was still greater than 100. So I am hoping to have some good news in a few more months. I was wondering the same thing about how long it takes for healing.

Okay, mouth. Sorry. I am an idiot. You are the one who started this thread and you've already told us your daughter's numbers! Sorry! This gives me comfort.

So did your daugther get checked at 3 months after diagnosis? Cause that's how long it's been for us and it seems a little too early for numbers to drop for me...Do you mind telling me what her level was at 6 months after diagnosis?

I have no idea how long the healing takes, but have u seen any difference since you have gone gluten-free?? That is important in istself.. It does take a while for the numbers to start to go down.. I wouldn't worry unless its a while and they dont go down at all.. then more testing maybe required. That is what happened with my friend. Then they found out her daughter could not even break down processed gluten-free foods. Her GI sent her to another top notch specialist-- another special diet was needed for like years and now she is on the regular gluten-free diet and her numbers have gone down..

So have patience.. As long as you trust your GI, and trust your instincts, and read your labels, you should be ok.. Be glad that your child was Dx'd as an infant and not a 13 year old.. It is much harder.. Now your child will no no other way... That is sort of good..

Any way, God Bless and Stay well

I guess that it depends on the Dr. My daughter it was we think 3 months also and there was no difference at 6 months, she was down to 68, then 6 months later she was up to 72. 3 months after that which is now she is at 42..

But I don't know if this has anything to do with it at all, but when she finally got a gray area biopsy and the pathologist said "base it on the blood wk" she was well over 100 and had gone thru a tremendous growth spurt.

She went from a 7 slim jeans in June 2006 to a size 10 regular by December 2006. Then In Jan 2007 she had t go into a size 12.. The 12's she has been wearing since- but mind you she had no choice the 10's were too small and the 12's too long and she needed a belt.. 12 slim didnt quite make it.. So now (or till now) she has grown enough that they are starting to get short, and she filled them out and is out growing them again. And Is in the Midst of antoher growth spurt. Also in her first growth spurt her bone age jumped 2 years in 6 months.. That is how small she was.. Right now I only have an inch on her (im 4-9) but she weighs in at 5 lbs less than i did when i graduated HS..

Any way enuf of the babbling here

      After waisted time of new care team, yet again EXHAUSTED saw new gi today in Modesto, though all my ailments im not getting any kind of concern of me being celiac and sentive to just about everything since menopause. Dr daid why don't I go see you guys because my blood shows zero for celiac. I told him im glutenfree since 1994 by colonoscopy with biopsy positive celiac sprue by GI.Its RIDICULOUS when im bringing in material from this site of knowledge as well as the autoimmune institute,and  there's zero interest on their part.Medical IS causing me depression.Im view as a disability chaser, IM STILL RECOVERING from being a bus driver that im still healing and having more issues, now I may have multiple sclerosis or meningioma. Ive reached out, wrote letters, NOT feeling well. This is inhumane.

      I was taking medicine for sibo but it was not agreeing with my stomach at all.Was on gabapentin but it amps me up.I was taking in morning because it wasn't allowing me to sleep.This has always been an issue with medicine and me.Even going to dentist, the good shot that numbs you once, I can't take because it makes my heart beat fast and I  get the shakes.I have to take the crappy stuff and get injected always more than 4 times always.Its infuriating

      I showed one doctor I went to once because completely clueless of celiac disease and yes that one was connected to a well known hospital and she said oh thats just a bunch of people that think they are celiac coming together. I said um no they have doctors and knowledge behind what is being written. So bay area is Downplaying this site! SADLY

      If you successfully digest gluten with enzyme supplements so it won’t give you side effects, your challenge won’t be worthwhile because the digested fragments of gluten also won’t stimulate antibody production or cause intestinal damage.
