Life update
Jan. 20th, 2015 06:17 pmFingers crossed that Ruby is now OK.
What I think happened – accidental gluten exposure on 13 December, followed by classic diarrhoea symptoms that lasted until 30 December.
Then gastro.
She had blood tests and her vitamin D, vitamin B and iron levels are OK. Also her gluten antigen levels are fine. This is good because I was unable to find another source of gluten in her diet when I thought she was being re-exposed. I was at the point of considering whether she had a dairy allergy as well, which would be a real pain.
For instance, at the moment, when we got to Karrinyup shops we can eat 1, undressed salad or 2, ice cream in a cup. Removing dairy would leave not much in the way of treats (gluten free sorbet in a cup).
I am pleased that her iron etc are OK, though it would have been easier if there had been something I could do there. She gets tired very easily and I cannot imagine how she is going to handle kindy. For instance, she did one and a half hours of practice kindy last year, followed by two hours of lying on a couch resting.
