Help With Biopies Results

My daughter had an endoscopy on 1/12 and I recieved her results today. I spoke to the doctor which he said everthing looked fine and I should stop her prevacid becuase he didnt see any signs of acid reflux or any problems for that matter. The only results on the final report I dont understand is this one:

Esophagus at 15cm:

Spuamous epithelium with dilated congested lymphatic channel.

Operative Findings

LES at 23 cm. EGD Grossly nl.

I dont know what that means now it could be completely normal but I would jsut like some other input. I really thought daughter had celiac but her blood and biopies say otherwise. I am debating on wheter or not tojust try to GFD like I orignally was untill I got these results. Also on the 4 biopies they took all it says is withinin normal limits nothing else. Could there be more to it and the pathioglist just didnt write it down?

Thanks

Janelle

How old is your daughter? I think I would try the gluten-free diet. What have you got to lose? Even is she is gluten intolerant and not full blown celiac you may still really notice a difference.

She is 21 months.

Thanks, I want to try but everyone thinks I am crazy since everything points to her not having it.

My understanding is that the blood work is grossly inaccurate in small children. At 21 months I'd certainly give it a go while she is still small and its easier. Have you thought about enterolab?

If it makes her feel better, then what else do you need?

      Although it is true that FDA regulations don't require gluten to be included in allergy info, it does require wheat and ingredients made from wheat to be listed. Of course, that doesn't preclude gluten from barley being found in a product.

      I had a lot of weird/random symptoms for a few months after going gluten free. But eventually they evened out and I felt SO MUCH BETTER. The person above wrote a very detailed message that looks helpful. I'd add don't forget to check for gluten in places like medicine. Advil liquigels, for example, have gluten. It's very frustrating trying to figure out if things are gluten free as us law doesn't require it to be declared. The only labeling rule is that if the product says gluten free, it must have less than 20ppm gluten.

      You had the wrong link to the menu, so I fixed that for you 😉. Trying to eat gluten-free at Chili's is risky due to cross-contamination, even if you go with items marked gluten-free on their menu. Every person with celiac disease has a different level of sensitivity, and you've not mentioned anything about your situation in that regard. Whenever I eat out I take GliadinX (a sponsor here), but of course, the best option would be to avoid eating out.

      She has had problems with constipation, they actually prescribed miralax for her but I have changed some other things about her diet that seemed to have helped, so I never gave it to her..but she still doesn’t always go daily

      @Nicbent35, are there any other symptoms besides altered mood when your daughter gets "glutened"? Behavior like that in children often belies physical discomfort of some kind. Does she complain of stomach aches? Is she constipated?
