    Hey, I am 17 as well and I live near Vancouver. I feel so alone with this disease because I know no one with it my age. I would love to meet people or just talk to people and exchange ideas/good recipes with people.

    You said your mum owns a gluten-free bakery? What is it called? I would LOVE to try it out :)

    Hi, I am 18 and was diagnosed with the beginning stages of Hashimoto's disease 4 months ago. When I found out, I did a bunch of research to find out how to treat it. In the process I found out that Hashimoto

    I agree. I have been on the diet for 7 years now and the more time that goes by the less and less I crave gluten. I know that I can never cheat because it effects me so badly, so why even sulk about it! I also believe that if we aren't supposed to eat something, then we should eat it... pill or no pill.

    Hey, All the symptoms you mentioned, including the pins and needles feeling, are symptoms of celiac disease. I suggest you Google celiac and see what other symptoms come up. Also, the meds you were on couldn't have caused you to have an allergy... If you have the gene than it gets triggered by stressful or traumatic experiences. It sounds like you had...

    Hey laughingchicklol, My heart just went out to you when I read this post, that is an awful experience! I have known that I was celiac since I was 12. I was never an unhealth kid, but I had stomach problems and skin rashes mostly. When I went gluten-free, hardly anyone knew what gluten was, let alone what it was in! So, I got a ton of cross-contamination...

    Yeah, its definitely an awkward subject to bring up with someone your about to kiss. I have gotten sick from kissing guys after they have eaten gluten, though my symptoms usually come later...like in the next few days. Where as, if I eat gluten myself, or get CC, then I get sick within a few hours. Partying is the worst. I have gotten sick many times...

    Hey, So I get mouth ulcers...but really badly. I only get one or two at a time and they last for up to 2 1/2 weeks! They are EXTREMELY painful and I end up eating very little food when I have them. The form that I have is called Aphthous ulcers. They are an auto-immune infection that often occurs when you have a low immune system. SO, when you get sick...

    Hey Whalie, I am 17 too and have known that I am Celiac for 7 years. I have never used pot to numb the pain, because I get more then just pain when I eat gluten. My mom, my sisters and I are all Celiac, so we all had to make the transition together, and I guess that made it a bit easier. I had trouble with the fact that I was Celiac for years. But now...

    Hi, I am 17 yrs. old and live in B.C., Canada. If your daughter wants to email me, I would love to talk to her. I know how it feels, like most of the teens on this site, to be a young Celiac. It really sucks at first, but for me, it got easier. I have been on the diet for 7 years and I still get cross-contamination, I have also found out about a lot more...

    Thats what I tell everyone. I known for 7 years, and since then a ton of my family has found out they have to eat gluten free. My mom now has THE best gluten-free baking business in BC, Canada, so I have it pretty good. But it is getting easier, people are really starting to understand...at least the people that I have met.

    So the bakery is called Laughing Daughters Bakery, we dont have a store front but you can find products on Salt Spring Island and on Vancouver Island in any of the Serious Coffee chains. If you have trouble finding places to eat, check the celiacscene.com Search the area you live in or are visiting. My family and I found a few good places in Vancouver...

    Hey if you ever come to B.C...give me a shout, I know a couple others as well I live here and my mom has a gluten-free Bakery.

    That teacher is crazy and should not be teaching children! I am 17 and I have known for 5 years. Most of my family is celiac as well, so everyone knew. I didn't really have to tell my teachers because it didn't effect them, but when ever I do have to explain what celiac disease is to a teacher, they are usually understanding. The part that is hardest is the...
