Boy With Possible Celiac Desease - Growth

Dear friends, my boy ended a period of 3 months with gluten free diet, and during the first two months, we were happy, because he gained 1,5cm in height... but this last month, he stopped, and lost 400g...

i now it is so early to be sad, but he improved a little to eat, but we need almost always to give food to him, because he is difficult to eat.

and - exactly this last month, he went back to school, we think that the problem is with the snack time at 3pm, he is not eating it... beause nor me nor his father are there to say to him that he must eat...

i dont know what to do, in fact, im very worried, because my fear is that he is not celiac and we are loosing something more than this...

i always give confidence here in this forum, but now i need your help...

i dont know what to do for him to eat more food... he needs calories to gain weight... the nutricionist sad to us...

any idea? vitamins? prays? any kind of magic, witchcrafts?

anything else?

First, I am so sorry to hear your little guy is having problems.

Did you have any tests that diagnosed Celiac? If you can explain any of his symptoms that are causing him not to eat? Any areas of pain? Give a full description of anything that makes him feel off.

Hang in there! The peeps here are more than willing to help. Keep a food journal to see if there is any type of pattern that can be a symptom.

Please make sure that you keep a food journal - write down everything that he eats and make certain that everything is gluten free.

Take him off of all dairy products for four weeks. Make sure what he eats at school is not causing him problems.

You have made progress, but something is holding him back.

Has your doctor said that your son has Celiac?

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
