Is She Sick Or Was She Glutened?

DD has has some seriously runny BM's today and now she has a painful diaper rash. She's had a bit of a cold for about a week now and I think she is teething, plus we ate at a restraunt this weekend and went to a birthday party. So basically she could have been glutened or not!

Any tips on telling the difference between being sick and being glutened?

Not really ... if she has a runny nose and fever, it can be from the teething -- if it's a cold, her snot will be clear (sorry if this is saying something you already knew).

Restaurants are very iffy, which would make me suspect gluten. It would be hard to tell in a teething baby as a fever can be from being sick or from teething, and d can be from gluten or illness.

it could be either or both... eating out is always a risk, but when we are sick our bodies can do some really weird things. Hope she gets feeling better soon.

      Very helpful. Oh yes, I am quite fastidious about not falling off the diet. It's just that the list of things I must add to the restrictions seems to grow.

      I know this post is old but was wondering if you ever resolved this. My son is in the same situation. Villi healed but gastritis / duodenitis remain and calprotectin elevated. Now testing for crohns which I am freaking out about.

      I did a little research and one kind of aphthous ulcer (aka, canker sore) is the Herpetiform canker sore. It is well-known that celiac disease can cause a skin rash known as herpetiformis dermatitis. I can't help but wonder if there is a connection. Celiac disease is also listed in this article as a cause for canker sores: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/canker-sore/symptoms-causes/syc-20370615 Are you observing a strict gluten free diet? You might also look into reducing iodine consumption as that is known to help with herpetiformis dermatitis. Perhaps it will help with your canker sores as well.

      Coping with celiac

      Do you wear an M-95 mask left over from the pandemic when you handle flour? Do you eat out in restaurants? Do you take vitamins?
