  1. I just joined last week with a million questions. Everyone has been so helpful!! Today is my daughter's 2nd day gluten free. It has been okay. I cried when she asked for pizza yesterday. She is 21 mo. old has Neg. blood work and biopsy. But has a positive HLA-DQ8. She has also had chronic diarrhea. I say all this because, now nothing. She is not having...
  2. I am knew to all of this too. Do you buy all of these foods at your local health food store?? Or off the internet? Are there any foods that I should not waste my money on because they are nasty??
  3. What is the difference between gluten sensitivity and celiac disease??
  4. Nancy you are a life saver. That has given me so many ideas!!! Can my daughter really get sick from pots and pans used for gluten products?? I didn't even know that was possible. Do I need to buy new pans for here at home for only gluten-free foods?? I have heard of people on the forum talking about soaps too. Do I need to switch her bath products too...
  5. You know you guys have helped me out so much. I am soooo glad I found this sight. As per our travel. We will be traveling straight to Texas which is 21+ hrs.

Then generally the rest of the time we stay with relatives...
  6. Hi, We have two major children's hospitals in Indianapolis, we are about 1 1/2 to 2 hrs north of Indianapolis. There is Riley children's hosp. and St Vincent's, which is where the ped GI we saw. This may sound really selfish, but I don't mean it that way, I just want to know how you travel with a child on this diet. We are planning a trip to South...

She has several red flags, being the...
  8. I think I am just in denial that this could be happening?? I was like that when she was diagnosed with Duarte Galactosemia. I also have a son who is severe asthmatic and PDD. I honestly feel like I can't handle one more thing right now!! I would so much appreciate that book. I will do anything to learn more for my baby. I have to admit that this is my first...

  10. Hello, I am not a person with celiac disease ( I found this site looking for some answers for my daughter) I just wanted to say that I am a mom of two children. I have endo also and haven't had a lap for 9 years which shocks the heck out of my doctor. I take a natural progesterone cream by Lame Advertisement it is called Prolief. It is amazing. I was...
