The Big Question  

Posted by: Charity Gordon





The Big question right now is, does my 2yr old have celiac disease? He has T1 D and this has been my question for quit some time. First lab results did not show the possibilities. Just a few months ago when my DS went to endo appointment the doc said she wanted to do a newer and better test to see if there were chances he had celiac. Blood work does not diagnose just helps with on seeing the chances. Lab results came back and shows him to be at high risk. So he has an appointment to see a GI doctor.

My sons symptoms have been having lots of BM's some pasty or runny. Very strong odor some yellowish color some green and or dark. He has sick bouts wear he is very irritable and has fatigue. During this time he has little to no BM's and acts like he has discomfort and says his tummy hurts. As I right he is sleeping and has not felt well on and off. Also during this time he usually does not know what he wants to eat. Everything does not sound good to him. I am anxious to see if it is celiac that is causing all of this.

Some of you maybe asking, what is celiac disease?

Celiac disease is an inherited, autoimmune disease in which the lining of the small intestine is damaged from eating gluten and other proteins found in wheat, barley, rye, and possibly oats.
