Guest guest Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 he is 5. He was speech delayed and always above average IQ from what I see and his testing. You need to look up the sensory thing cause hard to describe except like aspbergers but not. I see Friedman Next wed and will ask abiout the genetic marker for celiac. I have never heard of that and it is suprising Re: BJ Celliac Jamy,WOW! That is amazing! I'm glad eating gluten-free helped so much. I'll have to do some research to refresh myself on what exactly sensory integration disorder is. I know Sensory Integration is the ability to take in information through the senses. I have been through the ringer with doctors and their beliefs on Celiac vs. non-Celiac gluten sensitivity. This has went on and off for years, mostly on in the past seven since I was finally diagnosed with Hashi's. I've had all sorts of tests including a biopsy. Everything was negative. I don't know anyone in my family for at least three generations that was suspected of or had Celiac. I really don't know what "the genetic marker" would be either. Maybe the dr told your daughter/DIL. The only thing I can think of is that the antibodies weren't positive. No matter, the only true way that I know of is via a biopsy. Anyone with Celiac would need to be 100% diet free of gluten to protect the intestines while us non-Celiac could cheat and only compromise our absorption of nutrients along with various symptoms.I continually read that the genes for Celiac Disease may be transmitted to some family members and not to others. Usually 10% of the time close family members have it. Sometimes it's triggered, or becomes apparent for the first time, after surgery, pregnancy, childbirth, viral infection, or severe emotional stress. (Celiac is rare in people with an African American, Caribbean, or Asian background.) Females seem to have it more than males. Although Celiac can manifest at any age, the greatest times are around a year old and people in their thirties to forty.I remember reading that a person can have neurological symptoms that include weakness, problems with balance, touch and pain. I imagine if you read a good article on Celiac you may notice many symptoms that your grandson has/had. I thought my many miscarriages were Hashi related, but now wonder if they happened because of the gluten sensitivity.The literature is pretty clear that actual Celiac affects a very small portion of the population - one half of one percent- something like one in every 300 people. It's an AI disease and will damage the intestines and has even been linked to intestinal lymphoma, a form of cancer. While non-Celiac gluten intolerance affects over 15% (1 in 7) of the population, yet have the same effects of malnutrition as Celiac, but not the intestinal damage. The treatment is the same - eating non-gluten foods.I would be interested to hear how things progress for your grandson as well. BTW, how old is he?Take care,Bj>> BJ, my grandsone was dxed with sensory integration disorder. That is kind of like add or a mild autisim, but not on the autism spectrum. I have a glutin issue and was finally dxed with celiac. I mentioned to my daughter and she did a test and took my grandson off glutin for 4 weeks. The change in his behavior was amazing! Even his chronic runny nose ended. He just went to a Dr that says he has no genetic marker for celiac.
