Hi Ravenwoodglass, You make a good point. There is another family out there. I'm feeling calmer now. Going to keep up the Gluten-free Casein-free for awhile and see what happens.

Thanks, all! I guess what I really want is some sort of clarity. While it's in the realm of possibility that my whole family has celiac disease, I think it's unlikely. I haven't heard of DQ 1, 1 celiac family. Given our genotype I think it's much more likely that we have some sort of non-celiac gluten sensitivity. But I feel confused because what exactly...

I am in the mood for a rant here because I'm feeling frustrated and confused and I'm questioning the meaning of our EnteroLab stool test results, which we just received. A little background: I found my way to this forum because my three-year-old daughter started having GI issues (diarrhea, white stools, constipation) in December. We got an initial...

Oops! This posted before I was finished. I'm going to finish writing and then repost.

I'm hoping for some opinions here. I'm wondering how you tell the difference between glutening and the stomach flu. Are there different symptoms? I'm not sure what to think about my three-year-old daughter today. She had diarrhea at about 10:00 in the morning, and she was crying and feeling awful, so we went upstairs to cuddle in bed. Well, I was...

AN UPDATE FROM THE OP: Well, we got our test results back from EnteroLab and DD's test results said she sensitive to gluten AND casein. We didn't do the whole panel of tests, just the very basic $99 gluten test and $99 casein, so I don't know more than that. I expect we will do further tests and test the whole family soon. Regardless, we're going to...

Hi Fiddle Faddle, Thank you for reaffirming that I should keep looking for what lies beneath this toddler's diarrhea diagnosis. There is a local gluten-free support group, and I've applied to join their Google Group, but I haven't been accepted yet. I'm hoping to ask around there before I find a new physician. Their website says that there is a local...

Thank you all for your support -- I feel so much better having heard from all of you to trust my intuition. I feel like people in my real life think I'm overreacting -- especially since we have a diagnosis or sorts (yes, toddler's diarhea is just IBS in a toddler). The way I got to celiac.com was I started typing my daughter's symptoms into Google, and...

Thanks for all of the reassurance! I wish I had been more assertive yesterday in the doctor's office, and maybe we would already have had some blood tests. I just hadn't heard the term "toddler's diarrhea", and I wasn't really sure what it was. I thought maybe it could encompass more of those symptoms. But then when I got home and read about toddler...

My three-year-old daughter has been having intestinal symptoms since for about 6 weeks. After looking around this website and others, it seems like her symptoms could match up with celiac. It started out when she got a stomach bug and started having diarrhea. The diarrhea lasted for a long time (maybe 11 days) and then she started having white, floating...
