I finally got my blood test results. I'm thrilled to say that the Celiac test came back negative, and other results indicate that we're no longer worried about eosinophilic esophagitis. I will remain gluten-free however, with the controversial diagnosis of gluten sensitive/intolerant. I am also confirmed now to have an allergy to peanuts, soy, and papaya. The other fruits are just oral allergies and not something my bloodstream is going address.
I can manage a gluten-free diet, but it would be very difficult to prevent cross-contamination in my house. I still shouldn't share food, but I'm thrilled that I don't have to worry to the extent of banning Playdoh from the house. My levels for the peanut allergy are in a range that I don't have to worry when making peanut butter sandwiches for my son, and for both peanuts and soy I don't have to exclude it all, but I should avoid them when I can. Papaya, by my experience, is not very common ingredient. I have only come across it in the form of facial peels and digestive enzyme supplements.
