  1. Thanks Mari for all the information. It is very confusing but I have to study it over a few times and I should be able to get it. Mkmom
  2. Thank you all for the encouraging words. I know I really need to do a long term trial and be very strict. I had met a mother of a celiac daughter and she said after 2 1/2 years of a VERY strick NO gluten at all diet that her daughters learning disabilites went away. My problem is I feel so lousy myself I really don't have the energy to do it all. I went...
  3. Thank you for your comments. We have done alot of testing for the autism. He is high functioning but still has several "traits" of the condition. We did have him tested for the gluten and casein proteins and he did have a slightly elevated gluten protein but not with the casein. He is mostly gluten free but he does have the occaisional gluten item,...
  4. Can anyone tell me what my sons results mean? He is 12, type 1 diabetic but doesn't complain about typical celiac symptoms. He is high functioning austic.

I read the latest issue of Living Without with Elizabeth Hasselbeck where she says this was the case with...
  7. Hi everyone. I am new here but not so new to the celiac issue. My 11 yr old son was dx'd with PDD-NOS (autisum spec) in 04. Through detox and treatment for that we had genetic testing done (in 06). I've lost the test results but it was done by Prometheus and said he had one half of the celiac gene and they could not rule it out or in. I've read on...
  8. Hi. My family was tested for the celiac antibodies which all came back negative. Having learned about false negatives I had my younger son who is 8 gene tested as he is on the autistic spectrum. His gene test came back and the dr. said that although the gene test was negative for celiac there was an abnormality which could indicate that he still had the...
