Any Ellicott City, MD Moms of children with Celiac's?

Hi,

My 9 year old son was just diagnosed with Celiac's Disease this past weekend. They found it looking for something else, and since he was asymptomatic the diagnosis blindsided us. I was wondering if there are any other Ellicott City, MD moms I could connect with. It's been pretty overwhelming and anxiety-producing so I was hoping I might connect with someone who has been down this road already.

Hi there, I'm not in Ellicott City but I do live in Maryland. My daughters were both diagnosed last April. My oldest is four and a half and was asymptomatic, my youngest is almost 3 and was very, very sick prior to diagnosis.  I'm in a Maryland ROCK (raising our celiac kids) support group that's pretty awesome. We meet up about every three months. I'd love to chat if you need anything. I know it's all overwhelming at first.

I'm not sure, I'm new to this forum too. Search for ROCK'n Maryland on Facebook, that's the one I'm a member of. But it's a closed group so I don't know if you'll be able to find it.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
