    Mizzo- I'm not sure, my daughter has been gluten free for 17 months and the past few months her headaches/migraines have been continually getting worse too. Her dad has a history of migraines, but I have rarely ever had a headache. I'm making her an appointment to see a chiropractor to see if he can help figure out a cause. I'd be interested to know also...

    Do you use the liquid, chewables, tablets?? My daughter can't swallow pills yet so we would need to use liquid or chewables.

    My daughter has been suffering from bad headaches, possibly migraines and I need to know what over the counter pain meds are gluten free? Does anyone know about Family Dollar or Walmart acetaminophen or ibuprofen brands? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Anyone know about Schwan's ice cream bars currently??

    Thank you for the info on Quinoa, we will give it a try! And yes, the prunes would probably work if she'd eat them. Every once in awhile I can get her to drink some prune juice, she doesn't like it, but she knows it helps so sometimes she'll do it. Thank you to everyone who is responding, I really appreciate it!

    We've done all the allergy testing and everything was negative, however we never tested for yeast I'll have to ask about that one the next time we go. My son has 24 food allergies so unfortunately I am very familiar with allergies, but I just can't figure her out yet. We do probiotics but not as much as we should, I hate using the Miralax because her colon...

    Thank you, I will mention it the next time we go in. I appreciate your response.

    Thank you. I do think some of her pain is gas, but the thing I can't figure out is that she can have normal soft bowel movements (which is a daily discussion in our house)every single day, but when she is glutened or has apples (and now these past couple of episodes) she immediately has BM's the size of raisins. And this change can happen from one BM to the...

    Thank you so much for sharing your story, I'm so relieved to hear that someone else has the same reactions to not only gluten, but apples too. I've been wondering if it's all in my head! Have you ever figured out why the apples and birth control pills affect you? My daughter is quite a trooper with all this, but I just hate to see her struggle at all. Thanks...

    Gluten free overseas - Thank you for your info. I am not real familiar with quinoa, is it like oatmeal? I was thinking it was a flour, how do you eat it? Thanks!

    My 8 yr old daughter (undiagnosed celiac) has had a few bouts of sudden severe constipation and I'm wondering if it's celiac related or if we are dealing with a whole new thing? Her main reaction to gluten is sudden severe constipation which then causes pain and also brings her moods way down and causes her to be very slow moving and depressed. I eliminated...

    Kaiasmom, No, I haven't and I've never heard of eosinophilia before. My son has an appointment with his allergist soon, so I will be sure to ask about it then. Thank you!

    Thank you everyone!

    I'm curious what hot dogs are FOR SURE gluten free. We've always done Ball Park Franks and had no problems, but my daughter is going to a school function and they are going to be serving Oscar Mayer all beef hot dogs. I've tried looking on their website, but I'm not having any luck finding out FOR SURE which ones are gluten-free. I'd be interested to know...

    Thank you! As far as camps and doing "normal things", I really want him to do them, but we've had a few mishaps that have caused me not to trust others, especially at Cub Scouts. I'm working on it, it's all about educating the adults. It's also really hard for my son to resist temptation when something is offered to him, so I try not to put him in those...

    Thank you again to everyone! Shauna, I had never heard of OAS before, but I just did a quick online search and I am amazed! I have absolutely no doubt that I myself have it, and chances are my kids do too. For example, I can't eat cantaloupe and bananas. I love them and I will often take a tiny bite just because I crave it, but I instantly get a mouth...

    Wow, thank you to everyone! The compliments mean so much, as I feel so alone in all of this. There are days when I'm almost convinced that I am insane and that all of this is not real and I must be imagining all of these issues! The rest of my friends and family seem to be "normal" compared to us. I hate having to explain why I do the things I do and why...

    I know this is quite lengthy, but I would really appreciate some input. I'm curious as to your opinion on my two children. About a year and a half ago my oldest son (now 10 years old)was diagnosed with ADHD and was put into special education at school. I chose not to medicate him and instead did a lot of research. I finally came across a website that said...

    Oh, also is Kemp's vanilla and chocolate ice cream safe? Thanks!
  20. SJD
    Thank you so much to everyone that has replied! Does anyone know if Hunt's snack pack pudding's are safe as well? Also, do I need to worry about natural and/or artificial flavorings or any of the coloring additives? Thanks again!

    Hi, My daughter is having her tonsils and adenoids out on Wednesday and her celiac diagnosis is new to us. Can anyone tell me what popsicles, puddings, ice creams, juice bars are safe for her? Also, how worried should I be about the popsicles and juice that they offer her at the hospital containing gluten. I told them that she has celiac, but I'm having a...

    Thank you!! I forgot to mention the obvious symptom of chronic constipation/diarrhea (it's one or the other and there is no in-between). Thanks again for your support!

    Hi, I'm new here, but my 8 yr old daughter I'm pretty sure has celiac. She has been chronically constipated since birth, she suffers headaches (possibly migraines) during the night, very lethargic (putsy), depressed, always wanting to sleep, never hungry, her bone growth is that of a 6 yr old, she has SEVERE ezcema, multiple food allergies (eggs, milk,...

    Hi, I'm new here, but I recently (3 months ago) put my 7 yr old daughter through NUMEROUS testing, including an endoscopy and a colonoscopy only to get ALL negative results. The day after the procedures I took her off gluten and within 48 hours she was perfectly fine! I have struggled with this her whole life and still to this day I have NO doctor that...
