Hello, I was wondering for celiac parents with gene positive kids (DQ2 or DQ8) but celiac negative so far, how often do you get your kids tested for the antibodies ? and at what age did you start? I have a family history of celiac in my mom and maternal aunt, and planning on getting my younger one 2.5year old who carries the DQ2 (in trans...

Thank you for your response. Were your other non-celiac children screened via blood test ?

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. You are absolutely right, i need to start looking at the glass half full as opposed to half empty. Thank you for this wonderful advise. It makes me feel better knowing about the experiences of others and looking at things from a different perspective. I appreciate it.

My mother and aunt were both diagnosed with celiac 5 years ago and both healed (follow-up biopsy done). They follow a strict gluten free diet in spite of its difficulty where we live. I got tested for antibodies (twice) and gene test and both were negative. However i carry DQ2.2, and my youngest son got DQ2.2 from me and DQ7.5 from his father, so he...

Both my mom and aunt were diagnosed with celiac around 5 years ago and are following the gluten free diet strictly in spite of living in a country with very little gluten free options and almost no awareness. i was assisting my mom with her diet and insisted she pays attention to cross contamination among other things. In fact, after learning of my aunt...

She has been having...

ARCHIVED Help With Biopsy Results
PersianCeliac posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
My mom had her second biopsy after over 2 years gluten free. The biopsy says the villi is long on the periphery and there is no intraepithelial infiltrate. I guess this means her villi is normal now ? However, it says there is mild inflammation in lamina propria/duodenum. Is it normal to still have this sign of celiac on spite of norm villi now and over...
