    my girls eat oats without a problem---we buy gluten free oats from montana. azure standard also sells gluten free oats.

    allergy testing can be pretty unreliable in children that young-----so can celiac testing. have you considered that she might have acid reflux?

    gliadin IGA/IGG can be raised by other things than celiac. TTG is a better test for celiac. it is specific for celiac.

    since you know what your normal reaction to gluten is, and this is totally different, i'd guess it is not a gluten reaction.

    we've just been discussing this on another thread. it seems that just about EVERYONE who tests with enterolab is going to test positive for 2 gluten intolerant genes. that only guarantees that your son will have at least one gene(based on your test alone)---which does not gurantee that he will have a problem with gluten----unless you have complete faith...

    some celiacs are lactose intolerant until their intestines heal---that could cause bloating.

    isn't pumpkin chiffon a no-bake recipe?

    i don't trust the school lunchroom. i think even if they tried, it would be really difficult to prevent cross-contamination----especially with so many kids eating there.

    I hope we don't manipulate all our food so that our bodies are incapable of using it!! now there's a scary thought!!!!!

    that sounds familiar to me!!! i first had hip problems with my second pregnancy----i would sometimes limp because of the pain. during my 5th pregnancy both hips hurt when i walked for about 2 months. it carried on for some time (years) after my pregnancies. i think it is probably not celiac related (i don't have celiac). it is probably just your...

    i'd do the blood test if it were me. it is just a simple blood draw and the results come back pretty quick. i tested my whole family after we suspected one of the girls might have celiac---and we discovered that 3 of them actually have it. my oldest son has more symptoms than all 3 of the girls combined-----and he does not have celiac. there are other...

    andrea----i am sorry you are having to deal with this. my step-father of 35 years passed away 4 days ago---we are in the process of funeral preparations and trying not to get any feelings hurt----blended families, you know. my mother explained to my youngest (3 yrs) that they were waiting for the angels to take grandpa. he became somewhat incoherent and...

    i have a nutrimill. i had some trouble with it at first and the company was WONDERFUL to work with. they ended up sending me a new mill-----and the problem may have just been my own lack of understanding as to how the mill should have been working. they called me and said they wanted to test the new one before they sent it out, so they wanted to know what...

    only one of my 3 girls was sick when they positive for celiac.

    i am eagerly awaiting the results of our family's testing----in case you don't remember, my family is taking part in the celiac study being done through the university of california, irvine. it will be really interesting to see our results----there are 11 of us that are being tested, my 2 children from my first marriage, kevin and i, and all 7 children that...

    i wonder if he might have an allergy to gluten, besides the celiac disease.

    azmom, by chance is the other condition they are looking for FPIES----food protein induced enterocolitis syndrome?

    i recently read an article about malabsorption that said there are numerous causes. it also stated that it is important to know the cause because different causes are treated differently.

    in a nutshell, dr. fine seems to think that almost the entire world is genetically susceptible to gluten intolerance??? i have a hard time buying that one. it seems like alot of people are spending alot of money to get an answer they can almost count on 100% if they do enterolab tests. why bother testing?

    my three girls tolerate oats without a problem----we have the gluten free oats.

    carolyn---i think i may have already told you this---but just in case......my husband also had an inconclusive biopsy on a thyroid nodule. he had surgery to remove half of his thyroid and do a frozen sample test---if positive the whole thyroid was going to come out. it was negative, so they left half his thyroid, but he takes thyroid meds to suppress his...
