1 in 22 chance. You might like to check these Open Original Shared Link from the U of Chicago Celiac Disease Center. Interesting info.

I'm afraid I don't trust stats. So few people with celiac have been diagnosed, I don't know how they could project the correct stats. The 1-in-22 stat has always made me laugh--my mother, grandmother, one uncle, one aunt, son, daughter, nephew, niece, and numerous cousins all have celiac. No way could this represent a 1-in-22 stat. In my family, it's closer to 1 in 4. My guess is that if one parent has celiac, each child has a 50/50 chance of developing it.

I agree - my grandfather, my mother, me and my son (so far) I did read that if a sibling has it you then have a 30% chance of it but if a parent has it you have a 10% chance.....

My boys (ages 10, 7, and 2) are having blood drawn today. I'm so anxious about the results. They are having the genetic portion as well.

We heard from an alergist that son, age 7 doesn't have it. Now just have to hear on daughter, 6. So thanks for listening.

      Wow Im a tea drinker and didn't know, perhaps this is why im having issues with my ghost disease.

      She used to take supplements, but her abdominal pain is so debilitating that she hasn't been able to continue.  Her primary care team has been suggesting liquid supplements rather than pill form to help.  They just drew a lot of blood Friday and we are slowly getting all that work back.  I will definitely check into thiamine!  Thanks!

      They have not done that yet.   We are looking at some other treatments to help. And you are correct.  The tickborne illness has been a wild ride.  Our whole family has been battling different tickborne illnesses.  Its expensive and exhausting.

      I cannot tolerate it at all - triggers burning and nausea, ditto aspirin.  Here in the UK I take Paracetamol.

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.
