My son is 3 1/2 years old.  For various reasons (slow growth, frequent
diarrhea, and other problems), we decided to investigate
gluten-intolerance.  Last week we received the results from some blood
tests for gluten antibodies (gliadin, reticulin, endomysial
something-or-other).

The results were "normal".  I did not ask for the numbers; should I?

Does this mean that Andy for sure does not have gluten intolerance?  We
tried a gluten-free diet for about 2 days before having to go back to
gluten for the blood tests.  Should we try the diet again?

What about casein intolerance?  Is there a specific blood test for this?
Or is this a matter of "if it helps to go dairy-free then go dairy-free"?

Doctors seem to think I am looking for "Lorenzo's oil" by asking to check
for these dietary intolerances.  Sheesh.

Thanks,
Beth Jones
