Both myself and my 5 year old have celiac disease, and I have found that having a pancke style mix in the fridge is really handy. It keeps for well over a week. I have a sandwich press that I use to make the pancakes on (takes about 20 seconds) then I use it like a wrap or a lebanese kebab with whatever filling I am in the mood for. My little girl loves...

Hi, I'm really sorry you are having such a hard time, this has never happened to me. I never had any symptoms and was only diagnosed because I decided to get tested after my grandmother my mother and my sister all found out they had celiac disease.
