14 Month Old Vomiting


familyof4

Recommended Posts

familyof4 Newbie

My daughter has been throwing up after eating and has a very decreased appetite. My husband has celiac disease and was diagnosed at an early age. So I'm worried she might have it as well.

Nearly every night for the past 3 weeks she's thrown up all her dinner in her crib and occasionally she'll throw up after eating lunch. She was a very healthy baby before and was very healthy for her age (right weight and height). Just recently she's had a decreased appetite (which is very unusual for her, she was a very healthy, fat baby). I took her to the doctor and they didn't run any tests and just told me to keep a food diary since she doesn't really have any other symptoms. Our family was on a gluten free diet from October-April and have been really slacking since then. My husband has gone back to gluten free recently but the rest of our family has been eating a regular diet. I'm wondering if anyone has had similar symptoms in their children that have celiac disease or if anyone has any advice? Thanks!

Yes. My daughter threw up after eating, and also had "D" before she was diagnosed with "probable" Celiac at 17 months.

She also threw up and had "D" again after eating and up to 5-8 times a day. She was then diagnosed with Eosionophilic Esophagitus when she was 6.

Demand to se a ped. gastro. and get the testing done. Vomitting does cause damage to the esophagus and I'm sure you want you child haelthy and happy as soon as possible.

I'm remember when we nailed the gluten reaction for my daughter. We gave her a Hershey's kiss (gluten free) waited the time past the time of her usual vomit after, NOTHING. Gave her a kit kat (gluten) and she puked it right back.

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗
