Yes we did that test last February and it was negative. Thanks for the tip!

I wanted to thank everyone for their concerns and comments. We saw the GI doctor today and received good news. After reviewing her lab results he said that he is absolutely positive she does not have Celiac. He said that the antigliadin levels were a little elevated at 49, but that is an old test they don't rely on anymore because it can test wrong 50% of...

Thanks for everyones opinion. After I called our ped doctor back last night and demanded I get an appointment with a GI doctor, I got a call today with an appointment for Thursday at 1:30. Even if they can't give me any other answers, I think I will just start the diet and see what happens. Another good thing is my sister-in-laws dad is a GI Specialist (for...

I called the doctor this morning about my 3 year old daughter - She had some testing done a few weeks ago and the doctor told me that the blood levels indicated celiac and she needed to start the diet, plus she wanted her to see a pediatric Endocrinologist and a Pediatric GI specialist. I called her back today because I haven't had any luck getting quick...

Thank you for the info with her knees. It is just really hard to tell with her. She is a happy child who plays normally, eats normally and giggles constantly. She doesn't seem like she is sick at all, except for the constipation. I don't know what is up with her knees, but I guess it is possible they really do hurt. The only other thing I have noticed recently...

Thank you all for the great information. My doctors office is not too great on communication and since I was completely worried I didn't ask what tests were being run, so I don't have the exact names. 3 months ago she had her 3 year well child visit. The doctor noted that she had not grown or gained weight in 6 months, she has been a small child since birth...

Thank you all for the great information. Thanks for letting me know about the corn pops and the cereals she can have, also the shopping tips. I am going to call the doctor on Monday an ask her why she thinks I need to start the diet with her before she sees the specialist. They are suppose to be working on getting the appointments expedited, but I don't know...

Thank you for the information. I never even thought of a different toaster or colander. Truthfully, I had never heard of this disease until a month ago. I had always heard of a gluten-free diet, but I was getting it confused with a Kosher diet. I feel lost and don't know where to start. Elizabeth always complains that her belly hurts, but sometimes I don...

I am new here, my 3 year old daughter had positive blood tests last week and the doctor told us to start the Gluten-Free diet ASAP while we are waiting to see the Ped GI. Since I had never heard of Celiac Disease until a month ago, I don't really know much about eating gluten free. I went to Whole Foods and bought her a ton of stuff that was gluten free,...

I am new to this, but I have some questions regarding my 3 year old Elizabeth. Since she was born she has been under weight and short. Our doctor has always kept an eye on her weight and even made special appointments just to monitor her weight gain. She have never moved from the 3rd percentile in her 3 years of life. Since she 9 months old she has been battling...
