We live near Portland, Maine. My son (10 years old) was diagnosed the beginning of this year. Found any good places to get gluten-free baked goods around Portland? His birthdays coming up and I am so scared about trying to bake a cake.

ARCHIVED I Cannot Do This Gluten Challenge Anymore!
jmoody74 replied to jmoody74's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Thanks for all the replies. They are very helpful, moreso than you'll ever know. I have given my son gluten for the last time I have never heard of Enterolab before. Is this company legit/reliable/worth the money? It sounds almost too good to be true, gluten sensitivity testing without needles/biopsies or having to torture him with gluten. Have... -

I also wanted to add a few points I don't think I mentioned before. My primary physician put my son on gluten-free diet before we saw the pediatric GI. He ended up being on that gluten-free diet for 5 months. Then the pediatric GI did celiac blood work. The plan was that if it came pack positive we would do a biopsy right away. If it came back negative... -

I am going crazy! My 10 year old was gluten free for 5 months. Then we were FINALLY able to get him an appt with the pediatric GI doctor. He scheduled him for biopsies but said we have to put him back on gluten for 8 weeks and then do the biopsy. Well, it has only been two weeks. The first week was ok, not too much trouble. This past week has been a... -
ARCHIVED Giveing Emmah Gluten
jmoody74 replied to vampella's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Seems like I may be having to make this decision soon also. My 10 yo son was told right off to start gluten free diet without having any celiac specific blood tests, now I have to wait 7 weeks for him to see a ped GI doctor. He is going so well on the gluten free foods that I do not want to have to make that choice between making him sick or finding out... -
ARCHIVED Very Confused About 10 Year Old Son's Diagnosis
jmoody74 replied to jmoody74's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Thanks Laura, Your response was extremely helpful. I am not sure about putting him back on gluten for the blood tests. I figured that might be what needs to happen but I really don't know how I feel about putting him through all that pain again. I guess we'll just see how he feels. I look forward to communicating in this forum and will probably have... -
ARCHIVED Very Confused About 10 Year Old Son's Diagnosis
jmoody74 posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Hi, This is my first post but I've been coming on for a while and reading posts and it has been very helpful. My situation is this. My 10 year old son has been sick for over a year with stomach problems. My primary care provider originally diagnosed him with reflux, then a slew of other things, until just recently, 3 weeks ago, saying "maybe it could be...
