Hello @A Wilson, Glad you found us. There is your answer. The results from the tests are just more data to the puzzle. -
Is it gluten?
Wheatwacked replied to Woodster991's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi @Woodster991, You do need to see a health professional to make sure it is not appendicitis. Rebound tenderness, fever. Is it gluten? Yes. It is also serious vitamin and mineral deficiency. Either by Celiac Disease malabsortion, food avoidance or just not getting enough. Consider significantly increasing your intake of vitamin... -

Yes. My son was diagnosed at weaning in 1973 His treatment was Nutramigen until he healed and was weaned to a gluten free diet. Nutramigen with Enflora LGG Toddler: Designed for older infants and toddlers aged 9 to 36 months While your medical system is causing delay, I think you should start GFD and document improvement and do gluten challenge... -

Research indicates that a significant portion of people with dermatitis herpetiformis (dermatitis herpetiformis) can experience worsened symptoms when exposed to high levels of iodine; however, not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis will react to iodine, and the exact percentage depends on individual sensitivity and dietary factors.

Test result insight
Wheatwacked replied to disneyfamilyfive's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Given your symptoms and family history and your low gluten consumption before the blood test, eventually you will be diagnosed, but it may take years. Ask your doctor about nutrition deficiencies due to malabsorption. Vitamin D deficiency is almost ubiquitous. Unless your doctor has an answer to your health issues, once you've pursued a diagnosis to... -
In what way? Skinese: You paid for it, might as well try. They are the usual mix and is gluten free. "Free of milk/casein, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, gluten, and soybeans. Contains no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives." Are you using whole milk yogurt or the no fat yogurt. The no fat has varius ingrediEnts...

Welcome @Ems10, Isn't is wonderful how a simple change helps. Gluten free eating is not a punishment. It does take attention to details when buying processed foods.

The short answer is if it hurts, don't do it. Yogurt may help sooth your gut and repopulate it with benificial bacteria. I prefer whole milk yogurt because it is not processed and the no fat yogurt is processed dehydrated milk powder with guar gums and water added to make it mouth feel like fat. Especially in early healing there may be other foods...

In the US you don't need a referal to see a specialist if you are self pay. PPO you can go directly to any specialist or doctor you prefer. HMO you’ll choose a primary doctor to manage all your care. Pricing of the insurance will vary, as will prescriptions coverage.

Toddler Diagnosis?
Wheatwacked replied to CatLady15's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
After 3 months without gluten he will have healed and his blood tests will be negative. That does not mean "not celiac, ok to eat wheat, rye and barley again. It does mean the diet is working. Many of those recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease are often deficient in vitamin D and other vitamins and minerals. It's a side effect called Malabsorption. ... -
Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

Yeah, but that's probably not where you want to eat, anyway. -
Gluten free vitamins
Wheatwacked replied to llisa's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
@llisa, I am curious to know how much vitamin D you are taking and what is your plasma level in nmol/L or ng/ml what the doctor's target 25(OH)D is. Hopefully with the gluten free diet you'll be able to feel better. -

Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

In that case if you answer "no" does that mean the chef doesn't have to be as diligent? If you ask for "pork free" do they ask if it is an allergy too? How's this for an answer: "I get violently sick if I eat wheat, barley or rye"? -
Gluten free vitamins
Wheatwacked replied to llisa's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I order my vitamins from Pipingrock.com. They also make Cream of Rice. Clearly marked gluten free. Right next to the Cream of Wheat. Stoneyfield Whole Milk Yogurt will help repoputate your gut bacteria. It has lactase so is ok for lactose intolerance. 6 ounces has 210 mg calcium. For magnesium I get the 10 ounce bottle of liquid Magnesium...
