My Son's Bisopy Results Are In.

Well the GI doc called to day with my sons results, and the biospy "showed evidence of a food allergy". When I told him about how we swtiched my son to the gluten-free diet and the results we are getting he asked if we could rush my son in first thing tommorow for a celiac disease blood test. He siad that while being gluten-free free for almost a week would effect the test, the sooner we tested the less impact it would have. He also said no matter what the blood test shows keep him on the gluten-free diet for now, and if the blood test shows negaitve to do a test exposure to gluton in a year or so. If the blood test shows postive then to keep him of gluton, for life.

That sound typical to y'all?

As for me... I gave my blood this AM, and wiating to hear back, prbly be a week they siad. Since I have had a endoscopy and now given blood, I think I am going try going gluten-free too, theres no more tests they can run so I will not be hindering anything. Frankly Im sick of being in pain and tired.

Go on the gluten-free diet and go by how you feel. If you start feeling a little better then don't stop the diet. Once you start becoming more aware of what your body is telling you (symptoms) after you've been exposed to gluten and you feel funny or needle pains or heartburn then you'll know its some sort of intestinal issue. In my family my grandmother had it, my father and a couple of his sisters had it and in my immediate family my sister has IBS and I have a brother who gets sick when he eats bread but refuses to find out why.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
