So I Checked The Pebbles Boxes...

Just to help clear up any confusion...

I was at the grocery store this morning and I checked the boxes of both Fruity and Cocoa pebbles...

They are both STILL GLUTEN-FREE!!!

I didn't check the date on the boxes, but it's a busy store so I'm sure they restock often. The ingredients haven't changed on the website either. Be advised, however, that the Marshmallow Mania Pebbles ARE NOT gluten-free.

I love both of them and I make gluten-free Rice Krispie treats out of them!

YUM!

Rice Krispie treats are my favorite, but I don't make them anymore. I just don't have the strength to stir them so that they are mixed up properly. I remember my MIL making me a batch in place of my birthday cake. That was so awesome. She did two pans and I got my own.

There have been many nights that a big bowl of cocoa pebbles with ice cold milk has been my dinner! (I am talking pre-celiac diagnosis too!)

Okay, tomorrow I have to go and get some! Maybe some marshmallows too. Which make better treats- the Cocoa Pebbles or the Fruity ones? :D

In my opinion, it's the cocoa ones all the way. The fruity ones are just too sweet. And the cocoa "rice crispy" treats are FABULOUS if you add a 1/2 c. of coconut to the marshmallows after they've melted (at the same time you add the cereal). It tastes a lot like the Girl Scout Samoas cookies. Yum!

      Are Gluten-Free Processed Foods Making You Sick? (+Video)

      Thank you! It’s very easy to make seedy crackers. They are much more nutritious than commercial gluten free bread,

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve. thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poo...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies. Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree. Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant. That may happen even with endoscopy. Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end...

      here are the lab ranges. Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      Just diagnosed today

      By JoJo0611 · Posted

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
