My tummy was doing fine and then I ate and apple today and now I am feeling ill. My tummy is not happy with me at all it fills like it is alive and bloated. In the past when I would eat apples the would make me burp but never would I feel like this. Has this happen to anybody else, what could it be. I didnt eat it with anything else. I think I probable had a handful of choc. cover rasians about and hour before which I had some last night and didn't have a problem with. I am sure my stomach started after the apple.

Yes, happens to me when I eat apples. I can get away with eating a slice or 2, but if I eat the whole thing, I get very bloated & crampy. Happens with bananas too. I have recently been having trouble with other fruits (peaches, cantaloupe & pears), but it may just be that I was eating too many (can't help it in the summer time). I have cut back to 1 serving max. of fruit per day and make up for it with fresh veggies instead.

Could it be a fructose intolerance? A friend of mine recently told me about this. Apparently it is common in people with IBS. A small number of people with fructose and lactose intolerance also have celiac disease.

I have no trouble with apples, I only eat yellow delicious and gala's. Now banana's do cause problems for me.

Deb I know what you mean bananas make my stomach burn something awful. I am sorry I put this in the wrong place I was reading in here and just posted a new topic and forgot where I was. Sorry :o If I knew how to move to Coping I would but I don't know how.

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Russ H · Posted

      The anti-endomysial antibody test is an old test that is generally reported as positive or negative - a lab technician looks down a microscope to check for fluorescence of the sample. It is less sensitive but more specific for coeliac disease than IgA tTG2. Hence, it is not "barely positive" - it is positive. People diagnosed in childhood recover much more quickly than adults.  I would look at testing all 1st degree relatives - parents, siblings.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      What about digestive enzymes that I hear help? I take align 5x probiotics daily.

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.
