Guest guest Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 Hi Antoinette, I think we can we can " agree to disagree " about Dr Fine & genetic testing and drop the subject there since it is really off topic for the list. I do appreciate what you wrote about your hubby's experience. It is quite possible my hubby is asymptomatic. I know I had trouble as a kid, got better at puberty, got worse again with pregnancies. Maybe he just hasn't had a " trigger " yet? My hubby is 29 yrs old, excellent health and shape. Had his blood analyzed and it was beautiful- even the ND had no suggestions for him except to try enzymes when he ate a lot of meat. He pretty much eats whatever I cook and then while he's working will pick up fast food now and then for a change. He'll even drink a little carrot juice for me occasionally SCD hasn't been too much of a change for us since we were down to only 2 grains my son could have anyway and then they caused problems. If anything we've added back in more variety for him (nut flours and eggs and bananas and pumpkin) so that is good! Janet, mom to Cody- SCD one week- multi food allergies > My husband has celiac...his intestines where a mess (biopsy confirmed)....you see he was " asymptomatic " honestly.....no symptoms...NOT ONE symptom of classical celiac disease! The Celiac Sprue Association call this type of person a " silent sufferer " ...so don't be so certain you have no signs...especially if you have a kid with a damaged gut. GF diet didn't work for him either. Go to Celiac Web sites and look into asymptomatic celiac disease. It is very concerning. > > Thanks, Antoinette (2 mo entire family SCD/celiac asd and not just because of gluten!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
