ARCHIVED I Am In Love With The Breadman!
celiackidmom replied to momtok&m's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I went to Barnes & Noble and found an entire gluten-free cookbook section, including many bread/bread machine recipe books. I'm just starting to try some out so I can't tell you which ones are good yet, but it might be a good idea to check out the books! -
ARCHIVED Son Looks Like Stepped Out Of Concentration Camp - Help!
celiackidmom replied to celiackidmom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Wow, thanks everyone for all your suggestions!! We are definitely getting creative around here as it just so happens that my pickiest eater of the family is the one on this special diet - go figure... Thanks for mentioning about personal involvement as well. He is very involved and understands as I've had to explain many things to him to convince him of what... -
ARCHIVED Son Looks Like Stepped Out Of Concentration Camp - Help!

celiackidmom replied to finally diagnosed's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My 12 year old son was recently diagnosed with celiac and he also had the constipation instead of the diarrhea. When he was little he was a constipated baby and the one and only of my three who woke up several times a night as well. But, what I wanted to share with you is to get Floradix!!! It the BEST iron! NO CONSTIPATION, all natural and they have a gluten... -
Thanks so much for all your posts!! I decided not to have him redo the blood work and have been keeping him gluten free. He is starting to play again, laugh and smile, and I am so glad! I would not have wanted to make him sick again just to get a positive test as he is responding to treatment. Thanks again and we will be on here often I'm sure as we learn...

Okay, so my 12-year-old son started not feeling well a couple months ago - he started sleeping all the time, ran fevers off and on, stomachaches, constipation, and lost a lot of weight so you can see all his bones. He caught a cold during this time, had bad allergies, etc. so we kept attributing his symptoms to this or that. Then he didn't get better so I...
