Still Confused!

My son Will went to Sick Kids for his endoscopy and it came back negative as well. He does not have Celiac Disease, but he is still under weight and very short. I have a follow up appointment with his family doctor next Friday to figure out what our next steps are. In the meantime I am keeping him on a gluten free diet. Since he has been eating gluten free his appetite is so much better! He would only eat a bit at a time but often and now he will eat two servings in one sitting! From what I have read the only difference between Celiac disease and gluten intolerance is a negative Celiac test. Lactose intolerance also runs in my family so dairy may be the next to go to try and get his tummy back to normal. He has one big belly! Although he looks so cute, I know it doesn’t look right at the same time! I guess we’ll see what his doctor says and I may also take him to a Naturopath. I just want my son to grow!
