It wasn’t a fasting glucose test, they told me he could eat before his blood work. And he hasn’t had any other fasting blood sugar tests so I don’t have anything to compare it too.

My son is 5 years old and was diagnosed almost 2 years ago. He has gluten free tooth paste, shampoo and bubble bath. Since we kiss our son do we need to worry about what we use, especially what we put on our face? Chapstick? Make-up? Shaving Cream? Face lotion? Thank you!!!

Thank you so much cycling lady!! All that information and articles are very helpful. He does not have a 504 because he is at a Catholic school and his school doesn't do them. He does wash his hands before eating snack but they are all at a shared table and sharing toys. We provide his own play dough. We have temporarily pulled him out of school for a couple...

Thank you!! Yes we are having him see a counselor. His thyroid was normal and is blood glucose was 96 with normal being (35-99). So I don’t think it’s diabetes. We have also had other random symptoms in addition to the depression /behavior issues. It’s just so hard to know what is a gluten reaction and what is something else. What I don’t understand is if h...

My son is 5 and was diagnosed 1.5 ago. We just had his panel re-run because we have been suspecting gluten contamination. His Gliadin Deaminated IGA went from 3 to 5 in a year and his C reactive went from 0.2-1.5 in a year. I know those values are all still in the normal range and his GI doctor said is blood work isn't showing any intestinal damage because...

Thank you!! I am very anxious to get his results. It’s so hard to know if we are being diligent enough with his diet and all the ways he can get CC.

We are waiting for my sons annual celiac panel to come back. Can even the smallest trace of cross contamination to show up on his blood work? Just curious as we are very new to this. Thank you!!

I would love to hear others responses to this! Our 5 year old was diagnosed a little over a year ago. The only restaurant we go to is a dedicated gluten free restaurant.

Thank you all so much for your replies! We are having his blood drawn and all his celiac panels rerun today.

Our son was diagnosed almost a year an a half ago. He is 5 now. His blood work at 6 months post diagnosis was great. Since then he started a preK program three half days a week but he has snack there. He sometimes eats the classroom snack if it’s labeled gluten free. We also keep regular bread in our house for my husband. There are definitely times he c...
