    So thanks for everyone's thoughts on the lab issue. I am still trying to get my insurance to pay for the testing....I have submitted a "medical necessity" letter in hopes that they will pay. My doctor had no real opinion re Enterolab, but actually uses Prometheus regularly. I think my plan will be to see what my insurance will pay for and go from there...

    Thanks for the info...I think I am going to try to go with Prometheus if I can get my insurance to cover

    My one year old is allergic to rice....it is a very rare thing in this country our allergist says. Of course it is the first thing I gave him for solids and he would projectile vomit it every time. We had him tested (RAST) and sure enough. Also when I found out he was allergic, I gave it up too as I was nursing and his rash cleared up...he had had this...

    Just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts about testing....My friend who is a dietician recommends Promethius lab for testing. I asked her what she thought about Enterolab and she just said she was not familiar with it. I see that Prometheus is more expensive, but has anyone had any experience with one or the other being recommended? Any differences...

    Hi there, I am very new to all this too. We don't even have a diagnosis for my 1 year old, but I have learned SO much from everyone here on this board. I wish I could remember all the good postings I have read that sound similar to yours, but I guess I would just say keep reading and reading here on this board -especially the "parents with kids" section...

    thanks! Do you use that baking mix alot? I mean is it a good substitute for any flour in a recipe? And yes, eggs and chocolate ok so far....My littlest one just turned 1 yesterday and I hav a 2 1/2 year old that I am considering going gluten-free for as well. and i find looking for stuff like bread and just basics like that is a real pain. Especially...

    I would be VERY INTERESTED in your baking choices in terms of the rice allergy. That has been a tough combo for us. I have not tried the sorghum?? But wow alot of gluten free alternatives contain rice. Any favorites for you? I have a picky almost one year old and a two year old! Also, does anyone have a favorite "Banned food list"? I am really still...

    Update: So of course our bloodwork came back negative...I never really had high hopes for that confirmation though. soooooooooooo I am going to continue to keep my little man gluten-free for now and see what happens. still considering the enterolab option, but not sure - maybe if i see no improvement after being gluten-free for a while i'll go more that...

    My almost 12 month old was diagnosed with peanut and rice allergy (rice allergy of all things!) who the heck ever heard of a rice allergy anyway! He was diagnosed at about 5 months. We have been gluten-free for 5 days now- yeeeeha! Most gluten-free food is full of rice. I pull my hair out daily. His rice allergy so far has been just vomitting, but...

    My 11 month old had a horrendous rash starting about 5 months. (he also has periodic fevers that cannot be explained) First it looked like an amoxicillin allergy, determined it wasn't...kept coming....at one point his poor body looked like someone dipped him in hot water and then painted dots all over him. Saw allergiest and rheumatologist and they tested...

    I have to get in on this poop discussion. My oldest son is now 2 1/2 and poops at least 3-4 times each day. Always mushy and foul smelling. He has never had any other symptoms, but the potty training thing is really becoming impossible. My youngest 11 months is the one I am suspecting celiac in and we have been gluten free for three days....to my knowledge...
