  1. I know this is an old topic but it's worth bringing up again because people do travel to Universal and things change. Living in Orlando we have family passes to Universal and have eaten at the parks a couple times. Pastamore in the Citywalk part of Universal Studios has a small Gluten free menu with Gluten free pasta, however, it made my son sick. We tried...
  2. My son (who is 6 now) had problems from birth with being sick. On baby formula he would spit up the formula and have constipation. They told me it was a lactaid issue and had me switch to soy forumla. For awhile he got better. Then he started on baby foods and suddenly he was spitting up and getting constipation again. He also was small for his age and always...
  3. You are right and I am glad they are there to help people. I am not so mad at Children Services because by law if a report is made by someone against a person they are legally required to look into it. I have been more mad at the person who made the bogus report to begin with, but regardless of any of the CS stuff, I am far more mad at what my son has been...
  4. An update: On Monday Morning we went and saw his Dr. as we were told to do so Sunday night at the ER. We saw his peditrician at 9:45am Monday. Dr. said he was pretty confident that it was just pneumonia based on what the ER dr. told him about the Xray. We said, okay and agreed that treating at home for pneumonia was okay with us. So we go home with that...
  5. So after everything about 3 or 4 weeks ago, the chest xray came back clear back thenso my sons Dr. determined that his TB infection was not active. Just simply that he had been exposed to it some where but didn't have the actual disease at that point. She started him on antibiotics anyways to make sure he doesn't get the infection. He takes it every day along...
  6. Always listen to your instinct. My son had problems from birth (Oct 2005) with getting sick and constiptation. We were given every excuse in the book. First it was the formula, then it was being introduced to new food. Next we weren't giving him enough water, and then the excuse was that he was fighting potty training and that made him constiptation. He would...
  7. So saw my son's Peds Dr. (Not the same Dr. from the hospital) and she redid the TB right away. She read it today and called it positive. Ordered a chest XRay for tomorrow. If the chest Xray comes back negative or clear she will put him on 9 months of antibiotics to make sure he doesn't get the disease and it just stays at him having been exposed to it. If...
  8. Okay, so, I am wondering if anyone of you can help me figure this out. My son gets admitted on Tuesday morning to the hospital, by a Peditrician and 4 of his residents at the Children's hospital. He was admitted for all of the following reasons: Weight Loss- 3 lbs in 3 weeks with 1 lb happening from Thursday to Tuesday. Nose Bleeds on a regular basis...
  9. Hi Everyone. I appreciate all your comments, suggestions and thoughts. We have had an interesting... well I don't know if interesting is the correct word or not, but not sure what other word to use... a change of events here. Due to the weight loss and night sweats, his Dr. decided to test for TB. I am not sure what lead him to that test, but they did the...
  10. In our home we have a seperate place for food with glutens and food without glutens. Seperate cooking utensils, plates etc, as well as seperates pots/pans and surfaces for preparing foods. At school they have him eat at the end of the table away from other kids so their food can't get into his and I send his lunch every day. As far as we can tell he is not...
  11. My son was admitted into the hospital this morning. He has celiac's diease and is 6. After a month of problems they have admitted him for a series of tests etc. He has been having pains that really can't be explained, in his legs, arms and hands. Like his hand last night, he said it felt like it was on fire, it had a rash and then the rash went away. He has...
  12. It just goes to show how careful a person needs to be.
  13. I just realized that I never thanked any of you for your helpful advice last year. I read stuff on this board all the time, but I don't type very much and I am sorry I didn't reply. I read what you wrote and just never answered back. All the advice last year was great and things have gone pretty good. Until he started kindergarten this year. He was in...
  14. I found out I was pregnant with my 2nd child in Feb of 2005 because I was having serious pain and bleeding that I should not have been having. A trip to the ER and I was informed that I was pregnant, probably by only a couple of weeks, however, with an ultra sound they were unable to locate the baby in the uterus and the Dr. believed I had a tubal pregnancy...
  15. We really and truly thought we were doing what we needed to do, to keep my son Gluten Free, but they explained so little to us and I really had no idea that there was so much more to it then taking away normal bread, pasta et. So many simple items have gluten that you would never guess. Last Friday (a little over a week ago) my son was very ill. He had...
  16. Very Frustrated and Confused

  17. Thanks everyone for the helpful advice. I really appreciate it!
  18. Hi Everyone. I came across this forum trying to do some research on finding gluten free food and boy am I glad I found it. My son (who will be 5 on Oct 7) had all kinds of stomach and BM problems (constipation) since birth. First they said it was his formula and switched him to soy milk, then when he was older they said he was just fighting potty training...
