ARCHIVED Overaeacting
Nikki2003 replied to Nikki2003's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs

But she went to the ped the other day and she was 49.6 lbs from 54 in nov. he wants her to eat a boost or protein bar a day or 2 a day and he wants to see her in 6 weeks to see if... -
ARCHIVED Overaeacting
Nikki2003 replied to Nikki2003's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
thanks everyone. She and nicole have a follow up with the gi dr on the 19th to redo blood work. And they have another appt on the 21st for food allergy testing. Alivia's should be interesting because not always but often after she eats anything she breaks out in a rash. celina -
My mother inlaw was talking with my husband and he is also convinced from her that alivia who is 7 years old may have a tapeworm. I think they are way over reacting. She eats ALOT cannot usually satisfy her she is still losing weight. She takes food at night up to her room and hides the evidence under her bed. She does this everynight and she is on a sleep...

Nikki2003 replied to ptkds's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I am very happy to hear that although she is startin another cold now since this morning. Hopefully it will just stay a cold and just involve a runny nose and not go to her chest. But if it does her asthma dr gave me prednisone to use just incase it comes back. But I would call her fist before giving it to her. This is her now 4th cold hopefully this one... -

I hope she isn't getting another bug. but is he on miralax? I haven't had to use it in a while but had to today. She was really straining. I hope he goes soon for you have you tried a stool softener?

When she woke up they just offered her a popsicle because they dont really want them to eat alot or heavy for a while. Maybe they figure since you don't know yet what does it matter. But it does matter especially if it hurts... -

ARCHIVED Celiac Disease Or Cystic Fibrosis?
Nikki2003 replied to ptkds's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Her gastro emailed me back and said I should speak with her pediatrician about the work up for this. But her ped didn't even know much about celiac I doubt he has kids with cf or even know the testing for it. He is a small practice not a chain. How would I ask something like this to him and do I ask a nurse,what do I say to get an appt or ask on the phone... -
