I took the kids trick or treating tonight. I stole a snickers, and my 4 year old looks at me and says "mommy, is that gluten free?!?" LOL.

My other son throws up every single time he has twizzlers. One house tried to give him a twizzlers and he said " my mommy says they make me sick. Do you have anything else?". LOL.

My kids were so excited to sort through their candy. We went through and took out everyting that we knew they couldn't have. I had told them I would give them .25 cents for every piece they couldn't eat. Let's just say I'm out almost $15.00. :o Ugg, I'm regretting that one...they were excited though. :P

My 5 year old son is always asking me if stuff I'm eating is "fluten gree." It's so cute that he cares, even if he can't pronounce it right.

I made sure that the candies we gave out were gluten free and nut free.

Too bad they don't make sugar free candy for Halloween, I'd give that out.

One house I went to gave out temporary tattoos instead of candy. I thought that was a cute idea.

When we told the boys (my boys are Celiac, so far girls are not) that it looks like Mommy is Celiac as well, the first question: "does this mean WE get the big toaster now??"

So cute.

My 9 year-old daughter got a full sized Kit Kat bar. So she waited on the porch for the next "little kid" to come beg and gave it to a little 4 year old boy. I told the mom she had an "allergy" thing and couldn't eat it. The little boy has a nut allergy and could eat the kit kat so it worked out well that she could pass it on to someone else who misses out on a lot of treats too.

PS My kids were with friends that have allergies and siblings that turned into a trading match. Some kids choose to take advantage of the kids that have to trade. I.E. "I'll give you one smartie for your stack of Twix" So I was really proud of my kids asking which candy the nut, egg, and casein free kid liked and could eat and just gave him half if not all of those candy types from thier stuff.

Big pat on the back to you for that as well! Kids do not generally come by that kind of compassion without being taught to be empathetic. They sound like wonderful adults in the making! Kudos!

That's cute. My 5-year old son is so protective of his 3-year old sister. They were going through their candy and DD kept trying to stuff things in her mouth. He would grab her hand and say "wait", then she'd look at him all concerned and ask "does dis have glootnin in it?". They both understand the importance of it so there was no upset over having to forfeit a bunch of candy. B)

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By trents · Posted

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By jenniber · Posted

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Samanthaeileen1 · Posted

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      Am I nuts?

      By GlorietaKaro · Posted

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—
