Something Terrible Happened

My future brother in laws twin brother and his wife went for their eight month check up and found out the baby had passed away. She is supposed to be delivering the baby today.

What would cause something like that to happen? I heard that she has had many miscarriages in the past. It is just so sad.

Oh! How awful! A pregnant woman's worst nightmare!

Sometimes, after they deliver, the doctors can tell what happened.

This is especially scary for you right now.

That is terrible news. I'm so sorry. The doctors should be able to tell after she delivers. How sad. :(

I am so sorry!

They may be able to tell after delivery, but they may not. Sometimes, babies that have too much genetic damage (not from anything anyone did, just the set of genes they started with) to survive do gestate for a while, but cannot make it to their first day.

I am so sorry to hear that. This is a parent's worse nightmare. I didn't think I could conceive and that's why my future husband and I didn't use birth control. I had a high risk pregnancy and thank God my son was born full term but I had bed rest for 4 months. After we had him we tried to have another chid and I miscarried 5 times. I'm just grateful for the one I have. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

P.S. I have read that Celiac causes miscarriages and infertility. Is there any chance that either of them have Celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
