That is not normal for Celiac.  She should see a doctor and consider that she might have something in addition to Celiac wrong.

I would consider something else, many with this disease develop other food intolerance issues. In these cases if we eat said trigger foods our bodies puke it up. Best thing to do if this is the case is a food diary, you keep track of everything you eat. You also need to go on a food elimination diet (please google) and remove all processed foods going to whole foods only eating only 2-4 ingredients a meal including spices, sauces, oils, etc. This way you can very quickly track down triggers.
In some cases it can be something else like the way the food is fixed, or something consumed or drank with a meal causing digesting issues like extra tannin preventing proteins from breaking down, high histamine foods triggering a histamine response, high lectin foods triggering the vomiting via lectin intolerance.
Heck I still can not eat high fatty foods, animal fats, animal meats, and some tough foods without digestive enzymes which could be another issue she could consider. If you lack the enzymes to break down proteins, fats, carbs, etc. Your going to vomit them up hours after the meal since you can not break them down.
There is also a various causes for gastric emptying, where say you eat a meal high in protein, fats, or tough solid foods, or a trigger food (for me garlic, onions, and certain spices) in certain amounts might cause your stomach not to dump to the small intestines, Depending no the issues dietary changes, supplements, surgery can fix this but you need to talk to a doctor about these issues.
Do you need post on intolerance, allergies, and enzyme issues?  I posted in the past and can dig them up for you for relevance sake.

One last thought, many celiacs do not quite get the whole 100% gluten free thing and think eating out, the occasional gluten, or shared environment with gluten eaters is safe. Trace amounts of gluten still getting into the system can trigger reactions also.

PS one other thought, constipation, is very common with this disease, if your low on magnesium and do not go daily with a BM you can get backed up....with no where else to go meals can be puked up as they can not go down. I used to have this issue with extreme issues. And found drinking a hot beverage with magnesium citrate, (Natural Vitality Calm) a hour or two before a meal will get my system moving. This fixed my morning vomiting issues I started having years ago where it seemed my tract bogged down at night and could not handle breakfast in the mornings.

has to make sure  she is really 100% gluten free and NO CHEATING.

I threw up every day for 6 months  until they  figured out it was  celiac. Three days  after that I was ok again.

you mentioned the environment thing.. she’s with family members in the house and they still all eat gluten. but when making her food hands are washed, and all foods are kept seperately. she doesn’t FEEL glutened, just always pukey and sometimes even puking. more like dry heaving? i guess

She should rule out active celiac disease (gluten in her diet) with a follow-up antibodies test.  This should be done a few months after the initial diagnosis and then yearly with her GI.

If her antibodies tests have returned to the normal range, her doctor can look for something else as the cause if her current vomiting.

Some can live in a shared environment if proper steps are taken, like having dedicated gluten free cookware, dedicated area for fixing gluten free foods, avoiding using fresh flour like etc. Others like me and some others here, had to move out as relatives could not comprehend sensitivity and constant mistakes made us constantly sick til we had to move to a dedicated gluten-free home/kitchen.  Shared condiment jars with double dipped spoons/knife used on gluten foods, touching gluten foods with hands or utensils then touching gluten free food, scratched pots/pans, shared toasters, crumbs on prep counters, air borne flour. are all common issues with CC.

You mention no symptoms...puking is one...there are over 300 symptoms to this disease and it manifest differently in everyone. Level of exposure, sensitivity, etc. also effects our reactions and it constantly changes. Funny thing is, one crumb can set off a antibody reaction for weeks, up to months. Initial reactions normally last a day to a few weeks, but damage and others symptoms can take longer as the antibody reactions go down. This disease, your body mistakes the gluten protein (smaller then a germ) for something dangerous to the body and produces antibodies and goes on a rampage, It will normally attack our intestines, but can and will attack other areas. This causes the internal damage and leads to many other possibilities for complications. And your body will keep producing antibodies even after the gluten is gone to make sure it is. Gluten being a protein, not a germ is not destroyed by soap, antibacterial soap, or bleach. Think of it like trying to destroy blood where a CSI tech can not find it with their lab kit -_-. On the same note you can decontaminate something with a 500F oven self cleaning cycle.

I ended up with gastroparesis which causes delayed gastric emptying. Look into this as well. I ended up severely sick with this , not sure if celiac caused this but I have both. Chronic nausea and vomiting. Can not take any medications/supplements bc they do not leave my stomach quickly enough and build up toxicity very quickly.  There is a test that can be done for this done by GI. You have to eat something while being x-rayed/scanned, takes about 4 hours.

Excellent suggestion!  ?

      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8! There are two main genes that have been identified as creating potential for developing celiac disease, HLDQ2 and HLDQ8. Your daughter has one of them. So, she possesses genetic the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population carries one or both of these genes but only about 1% of the general population develops celiac disease. It takes both the genetic potential and some kind of triggering stress factor (e.g., a viral infection or another prolonged health problem or an environmental factor) to "turn on" the gene or genes. Unfortunately, your daughter's doctor ordered a very minimal celiac antibody panel, the tTG-IGA and total IGA. Total IGA is not eve a test per celiac disease per se but is a check for IGA deficiency. If the person being checked for celiac disease is IGA deficient, then the scores for individual IGA tests (such as the tTG-IGA) will be abnormally low and false negatives can often be the result. However, your daughter's total IGA score shows she is not IGA deficient. You should consider asking our physician for a more complete celiac panel including DGP-IGA, TTG_IGG and DGP-IGG. If she had been avoiding gluten that can also create false negative test results as valid antibody testing requires having been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks leading up to the blood draw. Do you know if the GI doc who did the upper GI took biopsies of the duodenum and the duodenum bulb to check for the damage to the small bowel lining caused by celiac disease? Having said all that, her standard blood work shows evidence of possible celiac disease because of an elevated liver enzyme (Alkaline Phosphatase) and low values for hemoglobin.

      Hi everyone  After years of stomach issues being ignored by doctors, my 9 y/o daughter finally had an upper endoscopy which showed a ton of stomach inflammation. The GI doctor ordered some bloodwork and I’m attaching the results here. Part will be from the CBC and the other is celiac specific. I’m not sure what’s relevant so I’m just including extra information just in case.   The results are confusing because they say “No serological evidence of celiac disease. tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet. Consider HLA DQ2 and DQ8 testing to rule out celiac disease.” But just a few lines down, it says DQ2 positive. Can someone help make sense of this? Thanks so much.  result images here: https://ibb.co/WFkF0fm https://ibb.co/kHvX7pC https://ibb.co/crhYp2h https://ibb.co/fGYFygQ

      Those are great points and some follow up thoughts and ideas. I think you're both stating the same thing in two different ways, but I appreciate the "accuracy" of what you're getting to.   1. Are you both stating that the "too salty of a taste" could be triggered by a histamine reaction, and the flavor is coming from the electrolytes? If that is the case, wouldn't the individuals mouth always be salty during a "Glutening" situation, or are we saying that the person could get "use to the flavor" until introducing food or beverage and that could be enough to "stir the pot" and notice the salty flavor? 2. To push back on "#1": If that were true anyone with issues of histamine releasing foods/treatments would experience the same thing. Also, I did not experience a situation where most beverages were "too salty". Thoughts?

      The only vegetable sources of B12 are some fermented bean products using a certain microbiotic culture. It is next to impossible to get adequate B12 from vegetable sources without supplementation. Same with D3. Some mushrooms can make D3 when exposed to UV light. Are you vegetarian or vegan? Do you do dairy and eggs or no animal products at all? Low B12 and D3 could definitely cause or contribute to many of the symptoms you have been experiencing but would not cause celiac disease. It is more likely the other way around, especially if you are a vegetarian eating no animal products. Many of your symptoms seem neurological in nature. It is well known that the B vitamin complex is vital to neurological health but so is D3. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9820561/

      Russ, can you link an article supporting your assertion that small amounts of gliadin are detectable in human breast milk? Not doubting you but it would be nice to have the whole text for reference.
