I don't know if there is a support group in your area, but I found out recently that there is one in mine. If I'd known 7 months ago, I would have contacted them in a heartbeat! There might be someone close to you who has gone through this who would be more than glad to help you. There is a section here about support groups, you could ask there. Good luck! :)

:D marie--you can email me with questions if you want--you dont need to buy all new pants, but teflon should not be used for a celiac if it has been used otherwise--otay--you dont need to buy new dishes--just wash them very well--be very careful--some people say they fix the celiacs food first and then the others and clean the cupboards very good--u dont need to change the microwave and beleive me, it will become 2nd nature--my email addy is attached--feel free--deb ;)

Give yourself more than a week, though start the process now. It's a learning process, and you'll need time for it. Stick with the basics - no processed foods, just natural whole foods (they taste just fine and are healthy!). As for hardware - non non-stick pots and pans and other materials that won't absorb things don't need to be replaced, but I would replace plastic collanders (strainers) and wooden spoons. (And tupperware items that have pitted over time.)

My son, 3, was diagnosed in June and I know exactly where you are. First, and most importantly, know that in just about a month you'll feel like an old pro!

Second, admit now that you will make mistakes. It's not a big deal. It's just like any other "diet", you realize you made a mistake and just get right back on track.

How old is your son?

Feel free to email me if you need to. I will try very hard to get back to you ASAP.

Thanks everyone!! I am just now trying to buy up some of the things I will need to start off..My problem is what about lunches for school?? I am just so lost right now but am sure in time I will be ok with all this.I am changing the whole family so I know it will be hard but think it would be easier on James too.He is 8 and finds all this very unsettling..

      They both do.  The peanuts add nutrients to the treat. Tootsie Roll: Sugar, Corn Syrup, Palm Oil, Condensed Skim Milk, Cocoa, Whey, Soy Lecithin, Artificial and Natural Flavors. M&M Peanut: milk chocolate (sugar, chocolate, skim milk, cocoa butter, lactose, milkfat, peanuts, soy lecithin, salt, natural flavor), peanuts, sugar, cornstarch; less than 1% of: palm oil, corn syrup, dextrin, colors (includes blue 2 lake, blue 1 lake, red 40, yellow 6 lake, yellow 5, yellow 6, blue 1, yelskim milk contains caseinlow 5 lake, blue 2, red 40 lake), carnauba wax, gum acacia. glycemic index of Tootsie Rolls ~83 gycemic index of M&M Peanuts ~33   The composition of non-fat solids of skim milk is: 52.15% lactose, 38.71% protein (31.18% casein, 7.53% whey protein), 1.08% fat, and 8.06% ash.   https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/9781118810279.ch04  Milkfat carries the fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. The solids-not-fat portion [of milk] consists of protein (primarily casein and lactalbumin), carbohydrates (primarily lactose), and minerals (including calcium and phosphorus). https://ansc.umd.edu/sites/ansc.umd.edu/files/files/documents/Extension/Milk-Definitions.pdf

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets for disability because I show no signs of celiac BECAUSE IM GLUTENFREE! Actively dealing with sibo and skin issues.Depression is the key because thats all they know, im depressed because medical has caused it because of my celiac and related issues. I should have never ever been employed as a bus driver.After 3 years still healing and ZERO income desperately trying to get better but no careteam for celiac other than stay away frim wheat! Now im having care because my head is affected either ms or meningioma in go in tomorrow again for more scans.I know im slowly dying and im looking like a disability chaser

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values.  Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.  I use them as a gluten free substitute for a peanut butter sandwich.  Try her on grass fed, pasture fed milk. While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

      I see it everyday on my feeds.  They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts.  I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
