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?

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
