It has been 2 months tomorrow since nicole has had a fever. Tonite she started one again. She has been gluten free since july 22,2006. Why would she have another fever? I posted this already but my post never showed up.

She is seeing the GI nurse tomorrow for her visit anyway,So I guess it is good timing for it.

we'll see.

Don't panick yet. As parents of children with Celiac we are always looking to see how the Celiac has caused the present symptom. Maybe she is just sick with a virus or something. My son had D this afternoon, I spent the day stressing over why he has it. Maybe he has a stomach thing. See what the GI says. Good Luck.

This is confusing me. Because when she started with the fever it came on tuesday night,Then was gone by 10am wednesday am. Didn't get higher than 101.6. Then got it back thursday night but again no higher than 101 then went away by friday am. Now starting this am it is back.But only this time her face is broken out slightly and her chest and back. She is about 101 now. What does this on and on? She usually has fevers but not that go off and on for 3-4 days.

Any ideas?

Thanks again

Maybe completely off, but my sons and my sisters kids have been swaping viruses all summer. Whatever virus they had last, the fever was coming and going as well. And then one day it would be down to 99 and we thought, great it is over, and the next morning 103 again. They all went to the doc, told it was just viral and to ride it out. But with 3 of the five kids they ended up with an ear infection at the tail end of being sick.

It is weird because it looks like the viral rash but all over her cheeks on her ears down her front and back and even on her but cheeks (not a diaper rash).

Any sores in her mouth or throat? There are over 20 strands of the Coxsacki (sp ?) virus. My oldest son had it once and had a rash all over. Not just on the hands and feet as is most commonly identified with coxsacki. High lingering fever is very common with it also. I believe sometimes it is just rash and fever with no sores. Very contagious too, as easy as the kid who was in the shopping cart before you got some saliva on the handle who happened to be getting sick, and your kid has it too. Just another idea. Sorry if I am of no help.

No sores in her mouth. Her cheeks are still broken out. And get more red and broken out looking in the sun. Got the fever back again yesterday 102.3. This am 99.7

Lost more weight also. It has been 6 days since this on off fever started. It it goes back up again then I will call her ped and see what he thinks.

Thanks for the help,She has had coxsackie before but only had blisters in her throat and no where else.

But her appetite hasn't changed.

We'll see.

Thanks

      Hey all!

      Thank you! I’m currently the breadwinner as my husband is pursuing a finance degree so the nights that I am at work they can eat whatever my husband makes but when I am home we have gluten free meals and no complaints so far! I definitely don’t have a choice but to switch but I think slowly transitioning my family is good!😀

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      I don't react the same way to all of them but do react badly to many of them where others may not. I also have a touch of hypochondria so when the labs come back too high or makes me anxious.

      What do you mean when you say, "blood thinners are all the same to me"? Do you mean you react negatively in the same way to all of them? Otherwise, they are not all the same. They work in different ways. Aspirin causes the platelets to be less sticky. Warfarin and related meds work by reducing the production of platelets. You might talk to your doctor about...

      Welcome aboard, @Savannah Wert! There usually is a learning curve involved in arriving at a consistently gluten free diet since gluten is found in so many food products where you would never expect it to be. This article may be helpful:  It is good that you have identified some other foods that you cannot tolerate at this point as this is so common in the celiac population and it often goes unaddressed for years. You may find that the lactose intolerance disappears as your gut heals. No guarantee, though. Keep an eye out for the development of celiac symptoms in your children as the likelihood of first degree relatives developing active celiac disease is somewhere between 10% and almost 50%. Yes, the studies on this are all over the map. Is your home gluten free or will you be attempting to avoid CC (Cross Contamination) while fixing gluten-containing foods for your family members? It is always best for everyone in the home to commit to gluten free eating in the home environment when one member has celiac disease.

I was diagnosed with celiac disease beginning of October along with microscopic colitis, lactose intolerance, and sucrose intolerance. I got sick the day before my 5th wedding anniversary and thought it was just the flu, which lasted over 3 months. I finally had a colonoscopy and endoscopy and was diagnosed. This has been such a hard transition and any tips are greatly appreciated!

      I don't react the same way to all of them but do react badly to many of them where others may not. I also have a touch of hypochondria so when the labs come back too high or makes me anxious. I am dismayed but not really surprised that I may be in the small group of people to suffer a particular side effect. I was originally on warfirin. I think that was the one where I had trouble with vitamin k numbers and or was anemic with low hemoglobin, red blood cells etc.  My blood pressure drops to very low numbers after taking something as simple as turmeric for a few weeks. My diastolic had touched 50 one day before I finally figured out that the herb was the problem. No intention to go for 40 so never looked back. I wanted to try benfothiamine but one of the listed side effects is bradycardia and other stuff that I am not going to challenge esp since I have had and still have to a lesser degree heart rhythm problems.
