Question About Symptoms & Behavior

I'm trying to figure out what is 4 year old behavior & what might be caused by gluten. I have two questions:

1. Last summer, pre diagnosis, my daughter would sometimes complain that her legs hurt when we were biking around the block. It's not a big block and she previously had biked around it without a problem. She's a pretty active kid so I was always confused by this. Could the gluten play a part in her legs actually hurting?

2. Lately my daughter has been bursting into tears when things don't go her way. I'm wondering if the gluten is causing some kind oftrouble or if she's just spoiled.

I can definitely say that my daughter complains of aches and pains and has meltdowns at the drop of a hat when she's been glutened (and pre diagnosis) but never has these problems when she's gluten-free.

      @rjane, yes, it often feels overwhelming in the beginning. But let me encourage you by saying that it will get easier. You and your husband will develop, over time, a sixth sense of how gluten is typically hidden in the food supply and where it is found and you will develop an inventory of foods that you can trust and to stock your pantry with. The largest risk involves eating out at restaurants. Even if you order things that are naturally gluten free, you have no control over cross contamination happening back in the kitchen in how things are prepared and handled. Another trap is eating at other people's homes who are trying to accommodate your husband's need to eat gluten free but...
