I am looking for a pen pal to communicate with somebody that has celiac. Hopefully from the ages of 11-14. 

I am looking for a family to host a foreign exchange student with celiac disease. Her prospective host family just dropped out. She is a 15 year old student from Italy and will come to the United States from August 2024 to June 2025.

Can you be more specific? Where in the USA or is that open at this point? Are you look for an urban environment or small town/rural?

I live in Greensboro, NC and would like to keep her within 125 miles of here so I can monitor during here stay. She has been given this opportunity to come to the US by Greenheart Exchange and I would hate for her to loose this chance. I have found not too many people are willing to work with a student like this. The student comes with their own money and health insurance. The host family provides a bed and three meals a day.

The student can live anywhere in the country with a host family that has been properly vetted.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By cristiana · Posted

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By jessysgems · Posted

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
