My son (4 yrs) has had abdominal pain, stomach issues and behavioral problems for a long time. Celiac disease has been suspected, but so far tests have generally been negative (no tTG antibodies, negative biopsy, but DQ2 positive). He has been on a gluten free diet for a month. Friday he went to ultrasound check of inner organs, and everything looked fine...

My son is 4 yrs old and started on a gluten free diet (probably not a 100% yet, still learning and adjusting) 6 days ago. He has had bad behavioral issues particularly right after his stomach has been problemtic. I am know wondering what to expect with regards to how soon one can see changes in his behavior.

My son (4 yrs) had biopsies taken on Wednesday, His blood samples have shown no antibodies but he is DQ2 positive, and has several GI issues which also affects his behavior.

As soon as the biopsy is taken, we will switch to a gluten free diet, and hopefully things will get better for him soon...

My son (4 yrs) is having gastroscopy on Wednesday. I was told that the analyses of the biopsies will take about two weeks. Is it so that they cannot give any indications about the results right away, or can they sometimes see signs of celiac disease immediately? I am so impatient and want some answers soon...

Thanks for the support!

I am new here. My son (4 years) is waiting to get a biopsy, and the wait is almost killing me as he is several times a day complaining about stomach ache and he is also being very aggressive in kindergarten when his stomach is bad. Today another mom asked me if I could talk to my son and get him to stop hurting her daughter. It is just devastating and extremely...
