    I've been waiting for them to do a house episode where the patient has some of the more bizzarre celiac symptoms!! that would be amazing, and good public ed

    Yesterday I went to visit Hamilton College and Colgate University in New York. I went to Colgate first and I was talking to the chef who was making my (delicious!) omelette and asked how they accomadate special diets. He said he had other students on the diet, and pulled out Gillian's gluten-free pizza dough!! I knew I would be fine there. Then that afternoon...

    Just a little aside...with many baking mixes, like pamela's, you have to add a but more mix than flour if you are substituting on a non gluten-free recipe to stop the running. I learned this the hard way too! But if this whole foods one works, I want some!! I've heard great things about that brand! I've had their prepared cookies and they tasted normal!!...

    mmmmm, sounds amazing..chocolate and pistachios together? I'm happy! One question though..what is it talking about with the baking it in a water bath thing? I've never made cheesecake before!
  5. HAK1031
    No, sadly it's not dairy free...and I'm now casein free as well. Wait, what's this chreese stuff? They make soy AND dairy free cheese? *goes to wikipedia in excitement*

    Thanks, these are awesome ideas!! I never thought of cornering these "niche markets" but I can only imagine the nightmare that parents of kids with allergies must go through to find sitters. I am epi-pen trained as well (I carry one for a sqaush allergy...I know, who's allergic to squash? lol and latex) so the allergist is a great idea. THANK YOU!! This is...

    off topic a little, but annie's makes gluten-free mac and cheese!

    he left...nice kid, but I didn't think his voice was all that great to be honest

    The forum vegiac.com has some good info for vegetarian or even vegan (yes, they exist!) celiacs

    But the credit card was maxed out from $500 trips to whole foods to buy gluten-free food!

    Thanks, these are great ideas. Although we don't have a support group around here, I would bet that there is an autism support group. And my brother and cousin have asperger's, so I have experience in that regard. Plus I'm a lifeguard which parents like

    hahaha that's hysterical; I'm allergic to latex too, my friends love to make fun of me for it lol

    I know I enjoy baking and cooking more now. I am forced to be creative, and the challenge is fun for me. I love cooking, and if I see a dish at restaurant that I like, but can't have, I'll go home and try to replicate it. I enjoy that.

    I get that rib pain, exactly as you described! I think it's where the beginning of the intestine is.

    Hey everyone, I'm 16 and need money. However I don't have time to get a job until school gets out. My parents suggested babysitting, but I worry a lot about CC. The last time I babysat (for my own nephew, so they were aware of my celiac) I got really sick. He was eating a sandwich and putting his hands everywhere, and even though I washed my hands and...

    Oh I'm jealous!! I love disney. I haven't been since going gluten-free, but I went with my cousins who have multiple anaphylactic allergies including nuts (peanuts and tree nuts), eggs, milk, and soy. The chefs are sooo well-versed in everything! They even made a special dessert for my egg-allergic cousin- it was like smores but with dairy-free dark chocolate...

    The pills are most likely your problem, especially if they are chewable. The Lactaid brand caplets (not chewable) are gluten-free, but the tablets (chewable) aren't. The not ok ingredient on there is "starch"...which with drugs, can be corn OR wheat without them labeling it.
  18. HAK1031
    I've seen them on gluten-free lists...I was on it for a while. I've been on several different pills (for endometriosis) and all of them were gluten-free..no worries
  19. HAK1031
    As for the friends, have them over for a gluten-free (and ok for other allergens) dinner and, of course, dessert. This will help to take away some of the strangeness of the diet if they realize that, with a few modifications, your daughter can eat real food. I'm 16, and another girl in my group of friends has celiac, and they have a pretty good grasp on what...

    That's why a restaurants I tell them I have a very severe allergy to WBRO..not the best for public ed, but when they hear food allergy, they perk up.

    I think different types of gluten can affect people differently. Surprisingly wheat is not so bad for me. If I have that accidentally, I might be in the bathroom for a little while but I'll be better in less than 24 hours. If I have barley, however, I'll be out of sorts for a week. The sickest I ever remember being involved a lunch of soup with barley and...

    While I can't help you on a specific drink, I can give you Gluten-free Casein-free vegetarian protein sources. I would also recommend not going too heavy on the soy because that can cause intolerances as well. Some ideas: -black beans, I pack these in lunches and bring corn chips to dip. They are good with different spices. -hummus/chick peas -nuts/nut...

    First of all, the blood test has a crazy high number of false negatives, with me, my brother, and several of my friends on that list. Secondly, many believe there is a link between endo and celiac. I have both, as do quite a few others on here...there was a thread a while ago. My endo symptoms are definitely better off gluten, and my celiac symptoms ...

    There are definitely members on this board with those symptoms. There are also members w/o genes that the US recognizes as celiac genes, but they do have celiac. Genetic research is very preliminary. It is still definitely possible for your son to have celiac. Hvaing him retested may not be the answer- they tests were likely right. Also prometheus is a much...

    I'm already about 75% dairy free from my lactose problems, but now I'm going completely CF for a week or two to see if I feel better. I am starting to feel sick again- headaches, and I still have that stomach bug (but I can keep fluids down OK now and I'm not dehydrated, but I will be seeing the doc tomorrow). I'm starting to feel a bit like I did pre...
