Hello- I am new to this site so thank you for your patience with me-I wil try to keep it brief.
I need help for my son. He is 14, has autism and has been Gluten-free Casein-free for 9 yrs and off soy and corn as well for 6 yrs. He has ongoing battles with candida. Until now, he has not been diagnosed celiac . . .
the new issue is this: he began vomitting in Oct and it is still happening. it started as once a week, has been as frequent as 2-3 times a week and as "infrequent" as every 3 weeks.
He had an upper endoscopy when it started that showed acid inflammation in stomach and s.i. and "blunt villi"--indicative of celiac but he's been gluten fre for 9 years !
I have kept a food, behavior, etc log and cannot find a pattern.
the dr wanted to do Prevacid and rescope but I feel like that isn't addressing the root problem-
I've heard of other celiacs needing to be off other grains-not just gluten
Any suggestions or direction would be appreciated.
