Pediatrician 's  Response
There are two considerations here. Lyme disease can recur or become more advanced so she should be checked for that possibility. Celiac disease is diagnosed when antibodies to gluten have formed and active disease is in place. Another test, there HLADQ antigen test, can be done to determine if she is at risk and if so she could consider electively going gluten free until older. The diarrhea, bed wetting and abdominal pain could be something as simple as a bladder infection. Please take her to the doctor for an exam.
