Re: - Celiac Panel Results for

[Guest guest]

It probabably is NOT celiac, but you need to see a GI doc. There is

a 3-5 % chance that it is celiac. I suspect it falls into a catogory

of " gluten-sensitivity " like so many apraxic kids are falling into.

I wouldn't be surprised if you had HLA testing if it turned out to

be DQ1...just my guess...a " gluten-sensitivity " gene associated with

neurological complications with gluten exposure.

I suggest you go gluten-free regarless of what the GI doc says. Too

many of our kids have a wheat allergy. This has got to be a piece of

the puzzle.

Thanks ,

Yes I did and a lot of other tests, I will email them to you along with the

answer to the questions you mentioned on a previous email, but here are the

results for Carnitine:

Serum Carnitine Result Reference

Free 23.0 30-60 nmole/ml

Esterified 3.0 6-25 nmole/ml

Total 26.0 40-80 nmole/ml

We are already supplementing with Carnitor 3 X per day 330 mg tablets. And I

have scheduled a GI for 12/05 (next week). I will keep you posted.
