Advice on child's bloods

[scater]

Ive posted this in children's health but its quiet over there.

Background is that 9 year old had positive and negative celiac blood tests in 2020 and an endoscopy that showed some gastritis but no diagnosis of celiacs.

Last few weeks,She started losing weight, went off food and then started losing hair. Took her to the docs who ordered loads of blood tests.I got a phone call to say iron was very low and supplement prescribed. Everything else was considered fine.

Just got a print out of bloods and yes, ferritin v low 3ng/ml

However, there are other things raised -
Serum creatin 55 umol 48 is top of reference limit
Serum total protein level 75 g/l

Also plasma glucose is 3.1 with 3 being lowest end of reference and IGA 0.36 when lowest ref is 0.3 so pretty borderline.

Are all these things linked to anaemia? Is she pre celiac (dad is celiac) am I just a stress head?

Thoughts and knowledge really appreciated.

Bump, just in case anyone has any thoughts, she's been on iron 3 weeks now and Im seeing no difference, she continues to lose hair. Im not sure how long we leave it before going back to docs.

Hi @scater just wondering if you found out the problem in the end, was it coeliac disease?

Still on the journey I'm afraid.
Iron supplement has had a positive impact on her appetite. Hair loss stopped and now returned and the dr agrees it looks auto immune so now waiting on paediatric appointment.
Hope if you have stuff going on with your child you've got good docs.

Sorry to hear you are no further forward. We are in a very similar position. The specialist at the hospital is suppprtive but everything takes such a long time. I'm going to see if an iron supplement helps, bloods show low iron but on the edges of the normal range. Doctor didn't think a supplement was needed but we could try Floradix or similar.

If they wont take it you can get iron gummies on amazon which we used for a while when she didn't need prescription strength stuff.
