    I have had a recent problem with rice. So I have no rice now. I just put extra cashews on my stir fry...

    Maybe you could let someone else keep your little girl during the day whole you pamper the animals

    I would cut out all dairy - & do not add in soy because it could also become a problem. The top problems after gluten are dairy, soy, eggs & the nightshade family tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, egg plant... Some people have problems with legumes they are a high lectin food. I have cut them out of my diet, now that I am eating more Paleo. remember...

    Your doctor is an idiot. all those problems with the gastritis etc. is just celiac - you have a diagnosis the idiot doctor just has no clue what he is looking at... yes backaches & headaches are common gluten problems. your child WILL eat if you take away the gluten - the stuff is lethal. your child is addicted to gluten and is not eating anything...

    Sheesh, yes that is so & yes probably because you have not been sick for years & years before you got smart & went off gluten - now that gluten is on people's radar - that will be happening more & more

    I would guess that you have at least one DQ1 gene - that comes with the neurological problems, including addictions - to spending, alcohol, food - what ever your favorite addiction is...ADD, ADHD, dyslexia, depression, OCD... When you get your gluten problem under control that should get better & if you by chance have that gene, another huge thing is...

    Well she also mentioned her google degree... AND - she did say how you heal the gut - you heal the brain & that it is all connected !!!! & she did mention the complete yeast overgrowth from the whole body to the head...

    sorry, I think your husband should support you in your decision. I do not think that you should have to gather evidence to validate something that you want to do. Does he golf or fish or hunt? do you spend an equal amount of money on your hobbies as he does? If not I think that it is time that you have your own discretionary spending money. If that is...

    Just test thru Enterolab.com & get the gene test - because they test for all the gluten problem genes not just DQ2 & DQ8 & a lot of kids do not outgrow those allergies or food problems - they just keep getting worse, at least mine did. & if it is a gluten problem that will never go away...

    The circles under the eyes are from the gluten. get the kid off gluten immediately, before you get some real problems. I would make a list of allowed foods & go from there. I am not up on candida but I think you should read about that - maybe someone else on here will post about that... or you could do a search.

    There is a huge learning curve. You will need to read a lot of posts on this board. You will need to read a couple of books, like Gluten Free for Dummies, Dangerous Grains & Kids with Celiac Disease by Danna Korn. You will need to clean out your kitchen & decide if you are going to have a gluten free house. At the very least you cannot cook...

    Wow, Gluten Free & Dairy Free made the Oprah show today in the discussion with two Hollywood moms re their oys that have autism. Not many details but they were very enthusiastic on how much it has helped their children. they also mentioned how the pediatriations are clueless and actually insulting to moms. Guess we already knew that. did anyone...

    & then again there are some doctors and a lot of people that use Enterolab & like them very much. You have two gluten intolerant genes. Which means that it comes with all the celiac problems in addition to possible neurological problems and other food problems. You are probably not going to be able to eat dairy - ever - is my experience with...

    Crohn's is nothing more than a compliation of celiac that will clear up on the gluten free diet. A lady that I know thought she had Crohn's & then went gluten-free & the Crohn's is gone. She is a vetinarian & was already in the gluten-free cake business because she worked with a vet that had celiac disease & made gluten-free cakes for the...

    Always, ask for the manager at those places - they are the only ones that care to do it right. & they are the only ones that have been trained. The workers are going to nod & agree with you no matter what you say, even when they do not understand a word of it...
  17. gfpaperdoll
    Yes, you really need to see a good Gastro doc, not the run of the mill too busy military doc. In the meantime, I would stop eating ALL grains, and dairy and no sodas & no soy or artificial sugar. Just cooked meats, cooked veggies, applesauce - whatever your system can handle in the whole food category of meats, seafood, veggies, fruits, nuts - try...
  18. gfpaperdoll
    I would only use the rice cereal - the dry stuff mixed with formula or breast milk. maybe applesauce also. I would start out only feeding it for breakfast, or lunch. I know cereal at night is supposed to make babies sleep longer/better - but that is not working for your child. when you feed a questionable food at night, the child or adult gets a worse...
  19. gfpaperdoll
    I would not feed your child oats, gluten-free or otherwise. actually the less grains the better... If you do not test thru Enterolab.com for the gene test, other places only test for DQ2 & DQ8. Enterolab tests for those in addition to DQ3, DQ1 & I think a couple of others... Enterolab gene test is $169.00, easy, no doctors orders required, they...
  20. gfpaperdoll
    I would advise against giving your child oats even the "safe" ones. Some people are addicted to gluten & other foods make their tummy hurt but not gluten. For some strange reason this does happen to some. You have gotten some excellent advice, I will give you a couple of things to think about - cannot say that it will work in your situation. Enlist...

    Have fun & enjoy your gluten while you can. Please keep us posted periodically on how you are doing!!!!!
  22. gfpaperdoll
    no it is not a given - I have a granddaughter that is 9 that I know has a gluten problem & has now lost all the enamel on her teeth - but hey, Enterolab, whom I love, diagnosed her with no gluten problems or dairy problems what so ever. She is just double DQ1 like the rest of us old ones in the family that have a load of health problems too numerous...

    Only in the USA is maltodextrin safe in foods that are MADE in the USA. For medicines in the USA you have to check the source of the maltodextrin. I have not been to Europe since I have been gluten-free, but it is my understanding that there is a high percentage of gluten allowed in a food that is stated to be "safe for celiacs" my advice would be...
  24. gfpaperdoll
    oh I so agree with this...

    Smousie, new blood work could also tell if you have really been successful on the gluten-free diet. Some think they are gluten-free but really are not. Also, if the diet makes you unhappy then that in itself is a risk factor. I do not advise this for very many people but if you really are unhappy gluten-free then just eat gluten & be happy. The gluten...
