ARCHIVED He Keeps Getting Sick! So Frustrated!
PrincessKitty replied to PrincessKitty's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Thank you everyone! He also has a hard time understanding that it takes time for his body to heal after being beat-up with gluten for 30+ years! He did agree to go to the celiac center and we are signed up for 8/22 (BTW we are in Pittsburgh and the celiac center is part of West Penn Allegheny Hospital). So I'm excited about that. I'm going to spend the... -
ARCHIVED He Keeps Getting Sick! So Frustrated!
PrincessKitty posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My husband was diagnosed with celiac two summers ago, via the blood test and an elimination diet. He never went for the biopsy (which I regret now as he wavers between believing he has and not). In October he decided that he didn't need to be gluten-free anymore and went on an all out splurge. Beer, pizza, sandwiches. After about a month it finally caught... -
ARCHIVED How To Handle A Dinner Out With Friends
PrincessKitty replied to PrincessKitty's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thank you so much for the suggestion. I will definitely call ahead and see what I can find out. I didn't organize the dinner (and there are other people attending that I don't really know) or I would offer to host at my house instead. I appreciate the cards though! Very helpful!! -
ARCHIVED How To Handle A Dinner Out With Friends
PrincessKitty posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
My husband was recently diagnosed with celiac and DH. Over the holidays with our families, he got glutened twice. Our families meant well and thought they had made gluten-free items but I think there was issues with cc. He is just recovering from his last attack and we got invited out to dinner with friends for NYE. There were three restaurant options... -
ARCHIVED Suggestions On Handling Family Holidays?
PrincessKitty replied to waitingdorothea's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm really glad you asked this question! I was just about to post something myself. My husband has celiac and DH and was glutened more than once over the holiday. My SIL really tried her best but something she made had gluten in it or was cross-contaminated. Then he had another problem with my Mom's cooking towards the end of our visit. It makes it really... -

Thank you so much for the info! I will definitely look into that. -
ARCHIVED Dh Reaction To Medicines? Vitamin C?
PrincessKitty posted a topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
We're are 90% sure that my husband has DH. He was never tested officially but the only thing that the terrible rash on his scalp reacted to was his going gluten-free. He's been off gluten for about two and half months with fantastic results, until the past two weeks. He got sick last week and took OTC meds and had a reaction. It took me a couple of days... -
Thanks so much for posting this! Pretty sure my husband has celiac and I was wondering about eating out. There is an Eat N Park not too far from our house. Thanks!!

ARCHIVED I Think My Husband Has Celiac
PrincessKitty posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I have to say I am extremely excited to have found this board. Just poking around, I have discovered a wealth of information. My husband has been dealing with a blistery rash on his head for the past year. He's gone to 10 dermatologists, had lots of tests, and spent a lot of money in prescriptions. Finally, after a visit to the ER, we were recommended...
