    My 5 yo celiac son has been gluten free almost forever, but he is anemic. September 2011 his ferritin was 13 and his TIBC 437. We got even stricter about gluten free, new toaster, new utensils, more careful eating out. But he still does get glutened almost every time we eat out and sometimes in school. Anyway, November 2012 and his ferritin is now down...

    That is so awesome. My 4 yo son has been on a GFD since about 1 month old due to chronic diarrhea. Has has failed every gluten challenge. He fit the genetic profile for highest risk for celiac. He has never eaten enough gluten for antibody testing or biopsy. My husband told me he thinks I am making it all up and doesn't believe our son is Celiac. So...
