She maybe eating some wheat/gluten without realising it.
It is hidden in so many foods even glucose syrup which can made with corn or wheat ie ribena is out, most children's squash drinks are out. Many ice-lollies have wheat in! Many sweets have modified starch made from wheat not corn starch. Play dough is usually wheat flour. Even some glue, medicines, stamp gum.
Or there may be contamination in the preparation/cooking process ie shared toaster, contamination of work surfaces etc.
coeliac or celiac
Hope this helps.
Or she may be intolerant to dairy food as the damaged gut wall lets the food through undigested.
Hope she improves very soon.

Do you mean she has celiacs disease? If so, and if she's just been diagnosed, it will take a while for her digestive system to recover. Is she sticking to the diet? My nephew has the disease and the list of food containing wheat flour is endless. Certain chocolates, stock cubes, etc, as well as the obvious stuff. My nephew finally got diagnosed at age 15, after years of being tested for every thing apart from celiacs. After that, he put on about 40lbs and grew 5 inches in the next couple of years.

Do you mean coeliac? If so, it sounds as though she is still having some gluten in her diet which her body can't absorb. You should take her to the doctor to be be checked and get proper gluten-free diet advice from a dietician, as there is gluten in the most unexpected of foods.

you have to cut out all gluten meaning baked beans, bread and so many oher things you should be able to get a list of foods that have gluten in them from the internet or you doc, you can get gluten free bread or flour to bake your own and lots of other gluten free foods though they are more expensive, my cousin lost 6 stone before he was diagnosed with celiacs now he has cut out the gluten he has put weight back on

Did you mean celiac ? If so, that is a condition that causes severe problems with foods and eating. I will not go into it more since I am not sure what you are speaking off.
Please check the spelling and then someone can help..
Celiac disease is the closest condtion to the spelling you had..
Good luck

I'm not being rude, but what do you mean by celerac? I think you have the wrong word.
Could you double-check the spelling and amend your question?
