What Test To Get For Toddler?

I have Celiac as does my older daughter. I was glutened a few times in the weeks following my toddlers birth and she reacted just like a celiac as well like my older daughter did. Due to the lack of gluten exposure we opted for genetic testing. She did not get DQ2 or 8 so we kinda figured we were home free with her. She's 3.5 and we finally introduced gluten in January and stupidly introduced dairy about the same time. Since then she's been complaining of stomach aches while eating, the foods she's eating when complaining contain both gluten and dairy. Obviously I need to pull them and figure out which one is the problem but are there any tests I can do that will pin point it faster/better then elimination and challenge? I'm thinking either regular gluten intolerance or dairy allergy. Would it be worth it to repeat a celiac panel if she didn't get DQ2/8? I know they haven't identified all the genes and its possible I passed on a different one.

      Why Celiac Diagnosis Still Takes Years—and How to Change That

      Our understanding of that is very incomplete at this time. There are theories and it seems to involve multiple factors. We know there is a genetic component but that is far from the total answer since 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only 1% actually does. Other suspects are the indiscriminate use of antibiotics...

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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/
