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 getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
