Hi everyone - I have a couple of questions.

Help! I have an important meeting with the staff at my child's school -- originally scheduled for a week from now, and they've moved it up to tomorrow --, and thought I would download the celiac disease informational sheets for her school to bring along w/me. Unfortunately, the link is not working at our local children's hospital website which contains all of the necessary info. and requirements for a celiac child in the classroom. Can anyone pls. refer me to another site that will have the necessary forms and info. for teacher/nurse/guidance counselor, etc?

Secondly, where she was recently diagnosed, I'm still in the learning process myself and find it overwhelming to be "teaching" these educators on keeping my child safe in the classroom. I'm trying to gather info on paint and glue that are safe. Anyone know if watercolor and or tempura paints are a risk? How about Elmer's glue? Can't find any ingredients on the labels and don't know where to begin. I don't even know how to advise the educators and I'm frustrated that I don't have some kind of book/guide to work with as of yet, it would have saved me a ton of time. Any info is appreciated, or if you know of a website that has the general safety tips on glue, playdoh, classroom materials info that will help the teachers and I. Thank you! Emily

Google "Gluten Free School Supplies"...you will find several links, but I was hoping for a 2010 listing. Perhaps some of the moms here have a current listing.

I'm in the same boat..my son is starting kindergarten next week. The teacher is very open and is actually changing products and cleaning all the play-doh toys. She gets high school students in her room before school starts to help her.

This is what I have found...

ok..I can't add the link I guess I need to figure that out. But go to Discount School supply and they have a list of allergy friendly school supplies.

Good luck to everyone working on school education!! :) I certainly have my exhausted and overwhelming moments. It is hard to advocate when the subject feels so emotional sometimes. I am still trying to learn and understand more about effective advocacy.

Here is one of my favorite links that I used last year:

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
