    i was close to tears when i posted on this forum...reality is that even beofre the diagnosis i have always,and i mean always set out with a plan..whether its a meal or an outing...i would be prepared..whether it was extra t shirts..inhalers..snacks(beofre celiac)....that drives my hubby nuts......my hubby is the spontaneous sort...so i guess he just wanted...

    i am lookin at my daughters results as i am typing....the doc u mentioned is plain nuts...it takes a while for the numbers to fall...case in point..my daughter, had 200 plus in her first result dated march 2008...and it came down to 35.8 dated jan 2009.....after a whole year..and we r vigilant too...the school is invovlved...we maintain a gluten free home...
  17. A&Z'S MOM
    its true that regular grind gives that sand in the mouth feeling but if you soak the rice flour in the milk before hand and then blend and then the rest of the ingredients the results are far superior...no grittiness....

    thank u guys...the guy at the company first emailed me that the chips were gluten-free...then later emailed the statement i had posted ....it couyld be an attempt to cover themselves ...i did jump and get some few bags.......the kids tolerated them well...but being still new at this(gluten-free for a yr)....i didnot get any more chips and will avoid them...
