I have no idea why this picture is coming through so big!! I tried several ways and times to make it smaller but I couldn't so I apologize, LOL!!

The good news is, she has an appt with the dermatologist on Tues. I'm afraid it won't result in anything yet again. We've been to the pediatrician, the allergist, the rheumotologist, the GI and no one seems to know anything. All her blood work is normal (except for low on Vit D). Even all of the JRA blood work was normal. The Arthritis was finally discovered through an MRI. She doesn't have the swelling, redness, or fever that I guess most JRA patients have?

If one more person tells me they don't know what's wrong with my daughter I am going to scream. It's not "normal" to have an intensely itchy, bumpy rash on your face along with ALL her other issues--the arthritis, the stomach, etc!

Thanks for the vent.

Megan, my daughter, has had bumps on her face (usually her cheeks) on her upper arms and thighs. My doctor had never been worried, but now I am drawing even more connections. Thanks for posting. Hope you get some answers soon!

If the derm does a biopsy ensure it is done properly.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      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 t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      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?

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

      @GlorietaKaro, your respiratory reactions to gluten make me wonder if there might also be an allergic (anaphylaxis) component at work here.

      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
