? react to wheat but not oats

[Guest guest]

I have a GF diet question. My son definitely reacts to wheat, but I

am not sure about oats. Bloodwork we did showed only high antibody

levels against wheat and dairy, but none against oats. I know the

oats issue is controversial in celiac disease and have read the

Finnish study, and also know that oats in Europe are less likely to

have cross contamination with wheat than over here.

But, he loved cheerios and in Canada I can get a toddler cereal that

looks like cheerios and has oats and no wheat. I gave him a box of

the stuff (Nutrios) spread over a few weeks as special toileting

treats and saw absolutely no negative reaction.

I know I can't get any absolute reaction, but has anybody has a

similar experience or are there others out there who can get away

with oat products?
