  1. I decided against a biopsy for my daughter. The blood tests were positive. The gastro dr just dismissed us when I told him no. I figure if the biopsy cames back positive, the gastro dr will just say he was right, continue to follow a gluten-free diet. If it comes back negative, the dr will explain why it could be negative when the blood work is positive...
  2. OK, I'm feeling a bit better about this now. Nothing good has happened since I last posted to make me feel better, I'm just reaching a state of acceptance. She still needs the probiotics to avoid having accidents. We ran out about a week ago and she had 2 accidents within 24 hours before we made it back to the health food store for another bottle. ...
  3. I want to thank all of you for responding. I'll have to check on the french fries cooking method. Charlotte has lost weight. She was 102 lbs before she got sick, went down to 91, went up to 96, then down 2 lbs to 94 I hope she can eat the fries, cuz she likes them & needs to gain weight. Fortunately Charlotte does not put her hands in her...

  7. Hi, Charlotte is 19. But she has cerebral palsy and a rare kidney disorder and is retarded, physically she looks like a 12 year old. Um, no, I'm not sure she's 100% gluten-free. I'm really trying & I think she has been gluten-free since just before Thanksgiving when they let her eat forbidden things at the school Thanksgiving celebration. We were...
  8. My daughter has been diagnosed with Celiac. She had an intestinal e-coli infection in June, & has had trouble with diarrea since. We took her to a gastro Dr & he did blood work, & wanted to do an endoscopy. We said no, for a couple of reasons. Partly because after reading on forums like this I see that not everyone gets it done. And because my...
