    I have to sheepishly admit, I was aware that some celiac's can't handle oats. Since my daughter and husband (not formally diagnosed with celiac, but highly suspected) haven't had immediate reactions to oats, I assumed they were okay. That's what I get for making assumptions! I'll eliminate oats, Cheerios, and anything containing oat flour. Thanks for bringing...

    In the five years since diagnosis, her TTG has NEVER budged. At diagnosis her TTG & IGG results both came back >100, meaning her levels measured greater then what the test measured. It took three years on the GFD for IGG to get below 100 and has been decreasing steadily since then...IGG is currently at a 29. Her TTG, however, is still >100. If it...

    Let me ask you all this: If she's basically symptom free, how concerned should I be about extremely high TTG levels after five years? Are there any long-term risks?

    Yes, she eats oats on occasion...maybe 1-2 times a month (Bob's Red Mill gluten-free Oats and sometimes Cheerios). Since she is pretty in-tune with her body and knows when she's feeling 'off', I asked if she has stomach aches after eating oats (her celiac symptoms come on very quickly after she is 'crossed'). She said she never gets sick after eating Cheerios...

    Thank you all for your input! I only have a few minutes to write, so I might not get to all of your comments right now. The first couple years on the gluten-free diet, my daughter still had regular symptoms (GI distress, extreme fatigue, pounding headaches, muscle/joint aches, and much more). Two years into the diet, we made our home gluten-free, and all...

    Good afternoon wise celiac experts! Please help me, I need sound advice! My ten-year-old daughter was diagnosed with celiac (positive bloodwork & endoscopy results) nearly five years ago. During that time, I have been vigilant to eliminate gluten: we don't allow other people to cook for her (with one/two exceptions), we don't allow gluten in our home...

    If you are willing to drive, pediatric GI, Dr. Daryl Fish, is the best. He is at Marshfield Clinic in Marshfield, but also travels to Wausau and Eau Claire. Besides being a wealth of information, he is very caring, an exceptional listener and great with kids. Whenever my daughter has an appointment, I am impressed by the amount of time he spends with us...

    Thanks for the advise. I, too, was a surprised that her teachers were asking her stop. I always viewed it as something she couldn't control. Now that I have (hopefully) found the source to her throat clearing, she'll be able to stop before kids mock her for it. She is a really sensitive kid, and getting made fun of for something she may not be able to...

    Hi All, My seven year old daughter was diagnosed with celiac 1.5 years ago. Although we have taken the gluten free diet very seriously, her IgG levels remain extremely high-->250. Her iron levels have normalized and she is basically symptom free, so her Doctor isn't too concerned, yet. Well recently I started to suspect that she has an intolerance...
