    Hrm, that's interesting, I wasn't aware of that. I need to find her old labs...

    That is our issue...our old GI was not yet willing to say celiac for sure, yet she also didn't want to do the challenge. Her labs didn't indicate celiac since she was already gluten-free, but they were mildly poditive for wheat intolerance. We were in an awkward spot in that the GI said her symptoms were far more severe than she would expect for a "low level...

    Hi all, My daughter will be starting kindergarten in the fall, and I'm wondering if we should attempt to get a firm diagnosis before then. I have heard that schools are less willing to make accommodations without it, but I don't really know what that means in practical terms. Right now her diagnosis is 'presumed celiac' due to the fact that we were gluten...

    Can anyone recommend a great doc in the Madison, WI area? We've just moved to the area...looking for both pediatric and adult celiac docs. Thanks!

    The risks for a healthy postdates baby in a healthy postdates mom with a healthy placenta are about on par with any other catastrophic problem at term (ie cord prolapse, placental abruption, etc)....in other words, real, but low, and induction before mom and baby are ready to birth introduces other risks that, sadly, are rarely given their proper due these...

    Hi all, I'm curious to know if any of you suspect a connection between celiac disease and prolonged pregnancy, or if there is any data on the subject. I'm currently expecting our 4th in another month or so. My 3 other children were all born (healthy) at 43+ weeks. In the time since #3's birth, I've been diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and my...

    Hi everyone, My 4 year old daughter is in diagnostic limbo-land, still mildly symptomatic, and I could use some help in figuring out what I should do next. The (long) back story: About a hear and a half ago, the whole family had a very bad gastroenteritis bug. The rest of us got better, but my then-3yo really did not. She was having middle of the...

    Hi guys, I apologize for the delayed reply, life got busy! Your answers to my question were just what I was looking for, thank you! My daughter's GI doc called today with her gene testing and other lab results. I probably won't get a hard copy with the whole scoop until her next appointment in October, but we did discuss quite a lot on the phone...

    Hi all, Is an official diagnosis truly necessary for adults? Aside from knowing with certainty, are there situations or reasons it would need to be official? Here's why I'm asking. My 4yo daughter is currently dx "presumed celiac", and we are waiting genetic testing results to offer us another good clue one way or other. (Our family doc told us...

    Hi all...just thought I should update here. We saw a great pedi GI specialist who said it really sounded like celiac by our description. She ordered quite a lot of blood and stool labs looking for that and everything else under the sun just in case. They're finally all back...zero indicators for celiac, which was a surprise to the doc. She does have a moderate...

    Thanks so much for the great info. My plan at this point is to call some pedi GI docs for an appt, or ask our family doc for the blood tests if I can't get her into the gi soon.

    Hello, I'm new here. My 3yo daughter has had some minor digestive issues for quite some time that have recently exacerbated. Our family doc suggested cutting gluten and dairy for a month, then reintroducing to test it out. I've long suspected that grains may be an issue, so we were all for it. We've been very consistent with the gluten and have done fairly...
