  1. Great info! Thanks so much.
  2. Hello, Two of my children have been diagnosed with coeliac disease. I was tested as well and my TT IgA and deamidated gliadin were both normal but the IgA was deficient. My dr said that doesn't mean much. But then my sister was tested and her result was the same as mine! Her dr told her to cut out gluten as she obviously has a reaction to it....
  3. I have a packet of Icing mixture here and the ingredients state sugar (sucrose) and tapioca starch. If I read those ingredients only I would assume it is gluten free. However underneath it says it contains gluten. How does it contain gluten?? Or is it like on lollies where the only ingredient is glucose syrup from wheat and it still says contains...
  4. Thank you so much for all your replies I really appreciate it. My daughter has been on a gluten free diet for quite awhile now so I know an endoscopy won't work for her. The gi was going to trial her again when she turned 2, but with everything else that has happened I think I'll just keep her on the diet. My son is back on a gluten-free diet and he...
  5. My son recently had blood work done and at the end of November his pediatrician gave him a celiac diagnosis just off his results. Tissue Transglutamise IgA Abs 35 with results between 7-10 borderline <7 negative Gliadin deamidated IgG Abs 15 with 7-10 borderline and <7 negative. I just don't feel comfortable having a lifetime diagnosis...
  6. I recently saw a product, chocolate coated marshmallows, that in the ingredients list stated Glucose Syrup (Wheat). Every other ingredient was safe, to the best of my knowledge. I understand glucose syrup to be gluten free. However, at the end of the ingredients list, it stated in the allergens list that gluten was present. Would they write this in regard...
  7. All the research I have done tells me that even if glucose syrup is derived from wheat it is so highly processed that there is no detectable gluten. My daughter who was fairly recently diagnosed, she's 12 months old, yesterday ate some dried fruit that said it had wheat derived glucose syrup in it. And today she did one of her big, loose bowel movements...
  8. Yes the diet does seem to be helping. She has started to put on weight, quite rapidly actually. She was really tiny, below that curve they have in the books, and is now back up on that curve. Her bowel movements have become a lot more regular and are more solid now. So, I guess that's my answer then right? The positive gliadin test and the improvement...
  9. I got the results not long after testing, but I'm headed back to the paed in a couple of weeks so have been looking into the results a bit more in depth. At the time the paed gave a 99% sure this is celiacs. My daughter had been on a gluten-free diet since that day. I guess it's kid of hard to come to terms with. I have five older children with no obvious...
  10. Oh really? I didn't know that (about being the most reliable test), thank you. I've been tested and was negative. I'm about to make appointments for my other children to get the blood tests done too.
  11. Hi, I'm new to all this, my daughter who has just turned one has been given a celiac diagnosis from our paed. I just wanted your thoughts on her test results Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Abs <1 (<7) Gliadin (deamidated) IgG Abs H16 (<7) Immunoglobulin A (Total IgA) 0.18 (0.08-0.53) So only...
