    I was diagnosed with FMS years ago. I've changed to a gluten free diet just 3 weeks and almost all FMS symptoms are gone. Of course I have other celiac problems, but I thank you so much, this has helped so much, I have had celiac spue - for years now. It has been horrible. I figured it out by experimenting for food allergies. I am also allergic to beef. My health is so much better that my life is dramatically changed. Your website is wonderful. Thank you.

    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center
    The University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center (UCCDC) was established to develop and coordinate patient services, research activities, medical education and public awareness initiatives in order to increase the rate of celiac diagnoses and improve the lives of patients in the Midwest. Our efforts are focused on the Chicago area, but every UCCDC program is created with the intention of making it portable so that other medical centers can implement similar programs with proven results.

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      And yes, of course it's better to know and we will adjust. It's just, he's 7 and in our house we can control what he gets. But he plays soccer 3 times a week and in the changing room the boys share candies. I can and will tell him not to accept them any more, but "mistakes" will be made. I'm really burdened by the potential social impact...

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      Thank you for your reaction. The reference values are both "<10", although I found a medical paper from Netherlands (I'm Belgian) who use the same values and there the see a positive daignosis as twice more then 200 and a positive biopsie. I didn't see how to change this in my original message, sorry...

      Hi Kathleen Welcome to the forum. I am based in the UK so I am just picking this post up before our US based moderators appear. I think they will want to know the lab values of both of the figures you have provided us with (min/max reading) as they tend to vary - could you post those for us, please? We see a lot of coeliacs who also have helicobacter...

      Hi all, I'm very new at this and 'this' has been quite a rollercoaster ride. Last august my 7 year old son suddenly had these colic like pain attacks that would come a few times per day/night during 10 days. Because they were that bad and because our older daughter had her appendix taken out at 7, we ended up at ER twice to have him checked...
