I understand that the Anti Gliadin Antibody test is considered antiquated, but that is the only test I have ever had, and it was positive for both IgG and IgA reaction to gliadin. I have learned a great deal about Celiac diagnosis from this site and forum that I wish I had known before going on a GFD, but I had the AGA test run by a naturopath who I had...

Thank you for the replies, stories, and ideas. I appreciate the input very much. We should receive some lab work results this week. We tested for Celiac, food/environmental allergies, vit. D, and a couple other things that I decided to make myself NOT google, because I need a stress break! We've already done a full CBC, Lyme, Sed rate, ANA, and other...

So my son, who is nearly 4, has been having migratory joint pains for about a year and half. He also gets headaches and aches in his chest area, and of all places, his boy parts. He has unexplained rashes that look sort of like very small hives to me (not itchy). He is very irritable, has disturbed sleep when his symptoms are "flaring", and from time to...
