Im having my daughter tested, although she has no symptoms. She is 15yrs old. I was diagnosed just over a year ago and for peace of mind, i want to make sure she is ok. has anyone had their children tested positive without any symptoms ? My 17yr old son went on the diet on his own, because of bad stomach pain and is now on the gluten free diet. Hopefully my daughter will test neg.

I think it is great you are having her tested! My 13 month old daughter is getting tested tomorrow, and seems pretty obviously celiac. If she tests positive we will be having EVERY member of our family tested just to be sure. We have a history of digestive problems, and this may be the key to it all.

I would not be surprised if your daughter tests positive. It seems that I read somewhere that a father has a higher percentage chance of passing it on to his daughter than to his son. I hope it comes out neg, good luck to you!

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      I have been diagnosed with Refractory Celiac disease Type 2. Which is quite a shock because my Gastroenterologist has been performing gastroscopy & colonoscopy's - 4 in 2025 & a gastroscopy on the 20/3/26 and they didnot tell me how bad my Celiacs disease is and has been. It was my haematologist that checked more of my symptoms and came up with the...

      Diagnosed Marsh stage 3C in January 2026

      Pardon me, I stand corrected. I did find yet another blood test for thyroid function. TSH W/REFLEX TO FT4: 2.91 mIU/L (Range: 0.40 - 4.50) As you can see, I was within the acceptable range when the test was performed.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I am curious: What was your initial level at? How many daily IUs were you taking via supplements and for how long? What did your level drop to? How many daily IUs are you taking now via supplements? Regards, Known1

      I have been diagnosed with Refractory Celiac disease Type 2. Which is quite a shock because my Gastroenterologist has been performing gastroscopy & colonoscopy's - 4 in 2025 & a gastroscopy on the 20/3/26 and they didnot tell me how bad my Celiacs disease is and has been. It was my haematologist that checked more of my symptoms and came up with the result. So I am trying hard to get some nutrition into my body. All of this info on supplements and nutritional diets is very helpful.  Regards Margaret.

Has anyone else heard of this?Ive been battling sibo so wondering if any connection though haven't been religious on my vitamins these last several months because of testing ect.Sibo medications im allergic,the last few prescribed. Gi  dr dropped me but took me back.Im frustrated too but its the autoimmune part .
