It could just take time for him to get better...don't give up yet!...Now 10 year old boys tend to be picky eaters by nature (trust me had a 10 year old brother 5 years ago). So..Have you thought about making some home made chicken and rice soup? Now I don't know if your son is a big veggie baby but one of mine is...You could cook up some fresh veggies....

My son started showing symptoms when he was 18 months old (he basically stopped growing and stopped weight gain). At his 3 year well baby check up is when the doctor first mentioned Celiac's and wrote up the order to get his labs drawn. 2 out of 3 were positive (IGG were positive, TTGAB was negative). Ended up getting a bone age done at 3 years and 5 months...

Well Gluten Free it is to be. My youngest son has a biopsy scheduled for tomorrow morning (trying to figure out why his Reflux is soooo bad. As for my oldest the GI doc can discharge him from his care, and I think I'll just let his Pediatricians deal with what they can for him. I'll try to keep you all posted but sometimes I can be rather forgetful. Thanks...

Sweetneet, Unfortunately for most of the tests for Celiac's you must be eating Gluten containting products. The only one I can think of is the HLA-DQ2 which checks for a certain gene. But for the IGG, IGA, TTGAB and the biopsy you have to be eating Gluten. There is always Enterolab, though I must admit that I am not sure on the reliability as I...

His previous GI ordered the HLADQ2 but the results hadn't come back when he saw the New GI (must admit laziness on my part- forgot that he had to have them done and so they didn't get done until the week before his appt). But I am going to make sure that his pediatrician keeps a eye out for it (just want to know what the results were as my son doesn't take...

My sons both suffer from Gastroparesis. My 4 year old has had the IGG, IGA, TTGAB, Endoscopy with Biopsy: IGG 118, IGA 48, TTGAB Neg., EGD w/biopsy: Long and intact villi, patchy inflammation present. Now I had emailed a dr (sorry can't remember who) re: my 4 year old and he replied with this "Celiac Disease can cause Gastroparesis"..I almost fell out of...

Okay...well I just took my sons to see the New GI doc (old GI doc is retiring) and I must say that I am not impressed..Just looking for opinions here..and it's been a while since I posted (last time I posted was on the "old" board). My oldest son, Daniel, is 4 years old. First noticed that we were having problems when he was 18 months old (he basically...

My youngest son had problems with Rice Cereal too. Made his gas and colick worse and even broke him out in a rash (all over) and the most horrible diaper rash I have ever seen. He also had problems with formula. He ended up on Alimentum. Don't know if my youngest son has Celiac's but my Oldest son does, so both my sons are Gluten Free.
