I got a lot of encouragement to take my 2 yr. old to see a pediatric
gastroenterologist for further blood work for CD.  A couple suggested Dr.
Fine's stool testing.  I took him to the ped. G.I. yesterday & already got a
call back saying my son has an IGA deficiency, so we're going to have a
biopsy done, as bloodwork will come back negative.

I was also instructed to limit his juice intake to just 8-12 oz. a day, as
that can fill him up(he's a poor eater, a bit underwt.).  I'm also to try to
encourage him to drink some Pediasure(this is a challenge, as he just wants
juice, but I'm standing firm despite the pouty lip).

Thanks for all your encouragement!!  Will keep you updated.
