I think I am going to make an appointment to find out for sure. The doc was in a big rush to get me out of there last week so maybe if I ask specifically what they were, they might take a minute to explain. I dont know why docs in Canada are so hesitant to discuss any results. It's almost like it's a big secret or something.

it was a "Celiac Panel". That was all it was listed as. I am in Canada...are they different here?

I took a Biocard Celiac test a couple weeks ago and it was positive. Went to my doctor and told him the results so he sent me for blood work and it came back "normal". So I called Biocard and they sent me another test to try and sure enough... same positive result. What gives? My doctor only told me my results were normal & never gave...

Thanks for the answers... I just thought I'd ask because you never know lol.

Oh, I do now. That hospital thing was about 8-10 years ago. Stevia, honey, Agave & sucanat are my staples if I ever need anything sweet.

As long as I can remember I had a bad reaction to artificial sweeteners. When Splenda came out (Sucralose) they advertised it to be just like sugar - just without the calories. Well I went and gave it a try and ended up in the hospital with SEVERE vomitting etc. If it wasn't coming out one end - it was coming out the other! lol TMI, sorry I dont...

Hi there. I was first on here about 2 years ago for my daughter but now I'm on here because of myself. I've always thought I had Celiac. From a very early age I've had symptoms and now I'm 32 and I can't keep living like this, so it's time to find out once & for all. I've had asthma since I was about 8 years old. Lactose intolerance since I can...

She has a milk/soy protein and Corn allergy She tested negative for Celiac but I was trying her gluten-free just to test it out.

Does your daycare provider understand the nutritional needs of your child? Mine doesn't!! For some reason she just can't seem to get it through her head. Today she gave her hotdogs & said "well they are all beef, so whats the problem?". Now my daughter is going through a diaper every 30 mins. I am so upset...

Wow, this could have been my post!! Everything you describe is happening to my 16 month old. I know what you mean about the 30 day wait for bloodwork through a naturopath. Anyhow, sorry I'm not much help... just thought I'd mention I'm in the same boat so you're not alone! Good luck & I hope you find some answers. My daughter's celiac test came...

Wow, this is interesting! My 16 month old just tested negative & I could have sworn up & down Celiac is what she has. Maybe I'll try a gluten-free diet anyway and see what happens. I guess it can't hurt!

UPDATE: The results of the Celiac panel were negative. As were the IgE's for milk, soy, corn and eggs. She tested positive in an IgG for corn & eggs about a month before (?) & hasn't been on milk or soy products in a long time and no corn & eggs for a month..... so maybe thats why they were neg? Who knows... Anyhow, I am out of options...

Wow, that's interesting! I use both Advair & Symbicort.

My 16 month old is 20.5 lbs

Success! I went to the appointment this morning and she ordered tests for Celiac, glucose, CBC, iron and also a RAST for milk, soy, corn and eggs. I will have to wait a few days to get the results but atleast I got her the Celiac test!! It sure was hard hearing her scream when they were taking blood though!
