    She has never had any allergy testing but that is good idea.. I just automatically go to celiac when I think diarrhea just because I was that way.. It is frustrating because the pediatricain didn't seem concerned at all since she is completely healthy just has diarrhea.. She usually will bend over in pain and say my tummy hurts over and over.. Then she runs...

    Yeah I was thinking the same thing it is just a hard call because she is completely healthy looking. she just gets diarrhea.. I guess we will be going to the gi doc and get all of this figured out. Thanks for the advice

    My 4 yearold daughter has had problems complaining of stomachs and diarrhea for the last 6 months or so on and off. I tested positive for celiac bloodwork but had a negative biopsy and my cousin is celiac with positive biopsy. Since my cousin had a positive biopsy and my blood work was so positive my GI doc said to go gluten free so I have been for 8 months...

    I nursed my daughter until she was 13 months and at the same time was undiagnosed (we think it was triggered by pregnancy). Anyway just make sure you drink tons of water. Water helps you produce milk and you definitely need it I you are also having diarehea. Since you obviously shouldn't lose any more weight you might want to consider drinking a gluten free...

    We eat there all the time! I have never had a problem.. I just ask they change gloves an use a new spatula.. Usually I get the cheeseburger and add grilled mushrooms, peppers and onions and fries.. They even put it in a separate bag from my husband's and daughter's since they get buns. You can actually stand there and watch them prepare it if you want if...

    Hi, my test results were very similar to your sons. I had very positive blood work and a negative biopsy... What my gi doc said is that he calls it latent celiac disease. I had a family member also diagnosed celiac but with a positive biopsy so the blood work combined with genetics are not a good mix. I have been gluten free for around 6 months and feel ...

    I had this same thing happen.. Actually the first month I went gluten free I lost 13lbs from just not wanting to eat anything.. I figured out that I pretty much craved things that had gluten in them.. I could count on the fact that if I wanted it it probably contained gluten and sure enough I would read the label and yep sure did.. I read a lot about detox...

    Just wanted to let you all know that the biopsies came back and were normal.. He just said that because of my family history of celiac disease and my positive bloodwork that I should remain gluten free or I could develop damage later on in life. I have been gluten free almost two weeks and feel so much better already!!! He said if I wanted I could have my...

    I take between 3000iu and 5000iu depending on how I am feeling.. My doctor also told me to take magnesium with it to help with absorption and to take it at night after dinner because it is better absorbed with fat.. He also said don't take it in the am because I am on thyroid med and he said I shouldn't take them together.. Good luck hope you feel great soon...

    Thanks for all the advice I really appreciate it!!! I will definitely update when the biopsy results come back... I thought it was funny that he said I didn't have celiacs disease just by looking... Because the are microscopic! I actually asked for more biopsies but he would do it.. I sure wish that they listened more to their patients! Oh well he told me...

    I am really confused because I had my endoscopy this morning and the gi doctor said my small intestines looked normal. He took 4 biopsies but told me He could tell by looking I didn't have celiac disease and the biopsies are not going to be back for up to 10 days.. He basically just said to eat gluten free or it will turn into celiacs disease.. Why is my...

    I got my celiac panel done after my cousin was diagnosed with celiac disease a couple months ago.. I have had a ton of the symptoms for a long time.. here are my results what does this mean?.. all the GI doctor said is that I need a biopsy so I will be having that in a couple weeks. I got confused since I was positive on 2 and negative on 2.. immunoglobulin...
