My Sons Celiac Test Results


zack

Recommended Posts

My son was tested by a top childrens hospital. His Symptoms are small stature bone age 2 years behind his age. He is 10. He has a vitamin d difiencey, His teeth are discolored, He can not put weight on. Weight has been 49-51lbs for past 3 years. His pediatrician told me its just constitutional growth delay and he is fine that he is in the 5th percentile and its normal for him. He is allergic to all grasses, trees, weeds. The Childrens hospital did a TTG-IGA, EMA-IGA both were negative and a Iga which his result was 78 normal range was 70-335. I went to see gi yesterday and she said she was gonna do a rast test for wheat and other foods and that i should try a boost drink for kids before bed for extra calories. I have to go back in three months and she said then we can see were he is as far as growth and talk about a endoscopy. So we get home and i decided to pull my husbands old ttg test FROM 2007 and he tested a 6 on his ttg-weak positive and his doctor had told us he was negative. With discovering my husband was positive do you think it would be unreasonable to demand a endoscopy on my son. Any suggestions. Has anyone had there kid test negative on ema, igg and still have celiac?

My oldest son was the same way. Some boys grow very little between 7 and 11. Mine was pretty much the same size at 12 he was at 8. In the last 9 months, he's grown close to 4" and gained a good 15 lbs.

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.

      Another great fiber option is dried apricots. Four of them give you 3g of fiber and I find they don't produce all the gas that some other high fiber options do. They taste good too. Costco sells a large bag of them that are labeled gluten-free so you don't have to worry about cross contamination issues like you might in bulk grocery settings.

      Wow, that's alot of info, Thanks!!!! I had my intake with Nutrionist where we went over basics and then will have follow up where we will talk about all the questions I've come up with (including the fiber question and so many more). I'll talk to her about the info you provided as well.  Thanks again (newbie here 😀)
