Son Does Have Celiac

Previous thread here

We had the biopsy on Monday, it went well. the surgeon saw "patchy moderate erythematous mucosa without active bleeding in the duodenal bulb" He said it was highly suggestive of celiac, or as the report said "high likelihood of duodenitis."

He gave us a copy of the endoscopy report to take home, it had photos on it (which I will post if I can figure out how to do upload them) of the duodenal bulb, you could see the red patchy spots in that area, the duodenum beyond that looked normal, he biopsied that also.

Just had a phone call from the clinic and he has celiac, it was Marsh 3a.I have asked her to fax me the report so that I can see the details. They are also going to fax me an order for his brother to have celiac bloods checked, that will save me a trip to the pediatrician at least.

Very pleased with the care we received, thankfully very different to the debacle I had to endure.

      Lymph nodes

      By Smith-Ronald · Posted

      Enlarged lymph nodes in neck and groin with celiac are not uncommon. They can take time to reduce even after going gluten-free. Monitoring is key.

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Bayb · Posted

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      By trents · Posted

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?
