As far as I know it is her stomach, but transient small bowel intussusception showed up on the ultrasound. I was told not to worry about it, but if it is what is causing her pain I need to know that. She turned up positive only on DGP IgG and none of the others, so she has a biopsy scheduled for next week. She is on Prevacid and started eating once we put her on that but says her stomach hurts every time she starts eating. It is really sad. She keeps telling me she is hungry but she is limited from the pain. She will not eat fruits or sweets. Everything seems to make her hurt, it does not matter what food I give her. I also give her Tylenol, and Malox if she does not quit complaining as she begs me to do something. What does the gluten do to the stomach? I am aware of the small intestine damage, but what about the stomach? Thanks, Jennifer

So what did they do for it? Is it a weak spot from damage from celiac? Since it is transient, do they fix it or does it get better on diet? Thanks. Jennifer

Has anyone ever had transient small bowel intussusception show up on an ultrasound? Was it determined to be from celiac? Did it resolve with diet change? Thanks, Jennifer

Is pain once you start eating a symptom of celiac? If so, what is it that is hurting? Thanks, Jennifer

I have a 5 year old that is having a lot of problems. The lab results are as followed:

DGP IgG 14 EU/mL (ref <4.9 EU/mL)

DGP IgA .7 EU/mL (ref <6.1 EU/ML)

Anti Human Tissue TTG IgA Elisa 0.3 U/mL (ref <10.3 U/mL)

Anti-Endomysial IgA IFA (EMA IgA) Negative

Total Serum IgA by Nephelometry Total IgA 89 mg/dl (ref 41-395 mg/dl)

How likely is it that she would have celiac if only the IgG DGP is positive and the others negative?

Also, is it more likely to be allergy rather than autoimmune if only IgG is positive?

Any advice/ideas are appreciated

Also, biopsy is scheduled for late next week.

Thanks
