Hi again.
I need input from parents of celiac kids. 
Taking our 1 year old off wheat improved her almost overnight. She has gained 
back a pound faster than she lost it. Her stools look more "normal." She is 
sleeping the night thru. Her dark eyes have brightened and her energy levels 
have improved DRASTICALLY.
We tested her sisters.  On all three of the older girls the quantitative IgA 
came back positive, but the trans-gluten cam back negative. Because the two 
middle girls have been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome, lactose and 
fructose intolerance, the physician's assistant has diagnosed them as celiac. They 
are now on a gluten free diet.
My oldest daughter however presents no symptoms other than severe 
constipation. My ex-husband refuses to attempt a gluten-free diet. Why I have no clue.  
Doesn't a positive IgA indicate SOMETHING wrong, even if not celiac disease?
I really need input.   I feel that this diet needs to be undertaken if only 
for a trial period of time to see if there are any changes that could be seen 
as positive. Thank you
