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 disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
