I'm sorry. but once the autoimune reactions kicks in there is nothing much you can do. Immodium can help with the bathroom issues and water can help flush out the system. I have found that it just needs to run it's course.

Please don't fee bad. It's a long learning process and it is inevitable that things will happen, especially with children who are not in your care all day. Things are going to happen as careful as we intend to be. Chalk it up to experience and move on, because that's the only things that you can do.

You sound like a very good parent.

GIve them lots and lots of water, warm baths and back rubs, and be there for them, even if they are whining and carrying on! They are young they will rebound quickly!

Hi

I agree lots of water. Thats exactly what I do. Please don't feel bad these things happens learn and move on. I have three childrens. The middle one is showing lots of the same symptoms I had at her age (5.5 years old). My self and my wife are trying to bring gluten-free diet to the house is not easy especially with the 10 years old.

We are all making the best under the stressfull times.

Good luck to you.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
