I know you all said gummy vites, which I found but his Dr. wants a vitamin with iron since he is a little anemic. I bought Curious George made by Health Science Labs. They say they are not made with Gluten but are proccesed on equiptment that may contain traces of it. I called the company and didn have much luck comunicating with the guy. He was going to pass the note on but I never got a return call. Any ideas?

Also, has anyone checked out moon sand? It looks really neat ( kind of a playdoh ish but its sand, wont dry etc. ) I also called that company and they were supposed to call me back but I never heard from then either. There are no ingredients listed on the package... Ugh I havent had much luck calling companies... Thanx for any help you all can give..

Can't your doctor give you a perscription for a vitamin with iron? I was actually questioning this myself. I noticed through alot of posts here that a lot of the kids are on an over the counter vitamin. My kids have always been given perscriptions as well as all the other young kids that have been in my life. Could it be because where I live they do not put flouride in the water? My kids vitamins have flouride in it.

What vitamin was prescribed? I actually called her today to write a script. I figure any money I can save the better! I think she was looking into what one is safe.. Thanx for your help.

Hi, they are on Poly Viamin with flouride. I actually am going to call again tomorrow to double check they are safe. I haven't checked in a while. They were one of the safe ones listed by American celiac association.

check GNC's website. They will tell you if any product they sell is gluten-free.

I actually dont take vitamins orally, just get vitamin shots, cause those are the only that don't make me sick cause of the corn and i get iron infusions at the hospital

Oh my gosh! I saw the Moon Sand commercial today too! Disney Channel I think?

I looked it up, and the company's website still says "Coming Soon". There is a space on their website for FAQs, but it's also "coming soon". Here's the site - Open Original Shared Link

I hope it's gluten-free. It looks SO neat.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.
