OK we are 2 weeks away from the scope and V is getting sick again. We have decided to keep him home from preschool for the next 2 weeks to make sure he gets better and does not catch anything else. But what I am getting frustrated with is that fact he is complaining his tummy hurts all the time. I called his norm doc and they said try the over the counter tummy stuff. That was doing nothing so I called the GI doc they told us back off the miralax if we want (cant do that cause he clogs right back up) or that we could try zantac for kids, I said lets try that well its been a week at 2 1/2 teaspoons twice a day and his is still complaining. They told me no matter what keep him on the gluten. But what

You can beg to move up the endoscope. Tell them he is in pain and you really can't stand to see him in so much pain. If that doesn't work, just give him lots of love and cuddles and remember that it will be over soon. If your house is not gluten-free, you can use this time to convert over (if your entire house is going gluten-free.) It took us about a week or 2 to get the majority of the gluten-free stuff out of our diets.

You could also call every day checking to see if there has been a cancellation.

thanks for the thoughts, we are moving this week., we have been living with my parents so starting clean will be nice. I will call and see if they will move it up i am thinking they wont because he has been sick with a cold and other things. They keep telling me that they want him 100% and i keep telling them that it will not happen bc this is his time of year that he gets sick easy. I just cant wait to get him off of all the gluten.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50. US 2024 - Increased Risk of Herpes Zoster Infection in Patients with Celiac Disease 50 Years Old and Older Sweden 2018 - Increased risk of herpes zoster in patients with coeliac disease - nationwide cohort study

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
