My youngest son was positively diagnosed with Celiac Disease six months ago. He had an ED done then and blood tests. The blood tests came back negative but the biiopsies clearly showed evidence of the disease and so began the treatment.
My question is has anyone heard of complications with the small intestine closing off due to Celiac Disease? My son has had follow-up ED's done every three months - the last one on Nov. 15th. His doctor had to dilate the opening to the small intestine again - that makes the third time that had to be done.
He is scheduled to see a lower GI specialist December 8th for consult and schedule a colonscopy.
Any suggestions, ideas, opinions, on what I should be asking and expecting are appreciated. Thank you.
