Thank You

I was not aware that she needed to stay off the diet for the biopsy thank you again I actually called a GI on call at our local childrens hosp and he confirmed what you said. I am hoping she wont have to wait to long for the biopsy she is in alot of pain and discomfort. her belly pain has been getting worse over the last 2 months she is vomiting quite a bit and it wakes her up at night. I found her laying on the bathroom floor crying her belly hurt so bad. I am a upset that the dr's did not catch this sooner. She has had stomach trouble since birth and i kept pushing that dr's to find out what was going on. They thought she had Diabetes last year her sugar was out of control up around 270-300 2 hrs after eating and then it would drop into 60's so they put her through so much and now I wonder if her crazy sugar readings were from celiac disease. I also just started to take her to see a therpist because she seems foggy alot tends to forget simple things I noticed this alot at home I thought it was just a personality trait but her kindergarten teacher mentioned it as well. Now I wonder if it is also related.

Hi I just joined this board and i am happy to have found one !!

My 5 yr old daughter has been having trouble for years finally her belly pain got so bad over the christmas holiday that my pedi. sent her for x-rays and blood work she called this morning and said she tested positive for celiac. We have not contacted a GI yet she can get me in appt. at the end of january so i will call around on Monday to see someone sooner. Is she going to need a biopsy? is that how they confirm the blood results? Where Do i begin I went to Trader Joes and got a bunch of gluten free foods hoping she will like the. any suggestions on good books especially cook books? Any help would be wonderful
