My 15 year old daughter went on a gluten free diet about 5 months ago. She had never had any intestinal issues. Her ONLY symptom was insomnia. The insomnia hadn't improved at all after being gluten free for 5 months. This past week we went to two different doctors (sleep specialist and gastroenterologist) Both of them strongly feel that my daughter is...

She was tested for milk allergy and that was negative. The thing is that she has absolutely no reaction to any food. She feels fine eating foods with gluten in it.

Yes, she already had a sleep study done last May but we are actually going to another sleep specialist tomorrow. This will be about the 10th specialist or doctor that we have seen in the past year. She is on numerous supplements: B12, Vitamin D and several other things. I'm actually hoping that they do another sleep study. I'm just really starting...

She will be 15 next month. She has had severe insomnia for 2 years. We have gone to several specialists and no one can figure out the cause. Our current doctor is wonderful but so far my daughter hasn't had an improvement on the gluten free diet. She seems to tire easy, has trouble concentrating and is sometimes sensitive to light. She also sometimes...

My daughter was tested through Enterolab and got a low positive result of 11. A previous saliva test was negative. She has never had any intestinal symptoms. She has had severe insomnia for two years and the doctor that we are currently seeing thought it could be related to gluten intolerance. She has been gluten free since October and has seen no improvement...

My daughter tested positive with an 11 through Enterolab but she has not had any improvement in the 4 months that she has been off of gluten. Her only symptom has been severe insomnia. She has never had GI symptoms I'm really starting to question whether or not she is truly sensitive to gluten. Is there another way that we can find out?

My daughter was diagnosed with gluten intolerance a few months ago. She has had severe insomnia for a year and a half. The doctor thought that there was a good possibility that she was gluten intolerant. We did testing through Enterolab and she came back positive but her score was only an 11. Prior blood tests came back negative. The gene workup also...

I wonder why so many people who can't have gluten have insomnia. My daughter has had severe debilitating insomnia for about 20 months. We have gone to so many specialists and no one has been able to help her. She went gluten free in October after finding out that she tested positive through Enterolab. We still haven't seen any improvement. She is on...

My daughter has had severe chronic insomnia for the past year and a half. We found out that she is gluten intolerant (through Enterolab) in October and she has been gluten-free ever since. Her insomnia is still severe and nothing seems to help. How long until the insomnia should get better?

Now people (doctors and others) are questioning whether or not the stool test is sufficient proof.

My 14 year old was recently diagnosed as gluten intolerant by Enterolab. I'm a bit confused because her blood test came up negative. She has been several different doctors due to health problems and some say that she isn't gluten intolerant unless the blood test is positive. Several people have told me that if you don't have Celiac then you aren't gluten...
