Gluten Free Kids And Seizures

Can someone please tell me if anyone has a child who has some kind of seizures as part of being gluten free. My daughter gets very upset about things and I thought she was just passing out but now she also loses control of her bladder when this happens - just wondering any advice anyone can give....

My girl does not have seizures. But, since going gluten free 3 wks ago she is more prone to crying or angry outbursts. She also has a large amount of stool in her colon due to celiac disease that we are treating with M.O.M. that causes her to have slips of # 1 and 2.

good luck

I can just offer compassion. I have a sister with celiac disease(unofficial DX) and seizures. She doesn't have clear ans. either. I have a lifelong history of fainting-can remember doing so as young as first grade, esp. in certain stressful situations and didn't actually but felt as if I would lose bladder control while I was out, when I was at my sickest, before gluten-free. No clear reasons why I faint. I've had some tests. BP gets very low and is slow to get back up. Clean bill of health from cardologist. Vasovagal DX. Have diabetes DX now so low BG may be a factor as well but not confirmed to be one.

      Celiac symptoms but negative endoscopy and antibody test + family history of gastro problems

      By NoriTori · Posted

      @Scott Adams  Sure, Any and all information is welcome. Also the only was to convince my family to get tested is to get tested myself and conclusive answers. Very stubborn lot.

      Blood results

      Understood. It's very anxiety-provoking when you don't know what you are dealing with and don't know if you are attacking it correctly.

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      I have heard of NCGS, but everything is just so confusing!!! Just unsure of things as her EMA test was negative but TTG was positive @19u/ml(lab range 0.0-7.0).Apparently she also has occasional bubble like blisters in between her fingers, don’t know if that’s significant. She is triallling gluten free as suggested by the gastroenterologist after her endoscopy. Keep getting different answers when typing in her symptoms etc. Some sites say it can be possible to have coeliac, even with a negative EMA . It’s so frustrating and her anxiety levels are through the roof. I know she’s hoping it’s coeliac which is weird I know!!! But if it’s not it just means more tests. Sorry to ramble on!!!

      Rice Flakes

      By sillyac58 · Posted

      I ame looking for rice flakes that aren't cross contaminated to use in making oat free granola. Does anyone know of a brand? Also I see that some people just used puffed rice cereal, but it seems like that wouldn't be sturdy enough to withstand the mixing without crumbling. Any ideas out there? Thanks!

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      There isn't because there is currently no gluten-free labeling requirement for prescription medications. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
