I am asking this question on behalf of a member of our local support
group.  She has a daughter that was diagnosed with CD at 15 months of
age.  The daughter is now 6 years old and has been on a very strict GF
diet all that time.
 
Last May she had an elevated IgG antibody reading of 55.  Six months
later she was checked again, and the reading was 104, nearly double.
The mother believes the diet is strictly GF, and that the daughter has
not been cheating on the diet when her parents were unaware.
 
The question is, could some non-celiac type of problem be causing the
elevated reading, or should they look even closer at the diet and try to
discover if somehow they are mistaken about the GF status of the foods
they feed her?  If you have any insights or ideas about this problem,
please send them to privately; I'll summarize them for the list if they
seem of general interest.
