    Thank you for the suggestions. I was going to send him with lunch meat and cheese and he told me he can't eat it without bread. The bread I bought, can't remember the name says best if toasted so we haven't tried it as a sandwich yet. Made an awesome stuffed french toast with it though. I think he will fight me on this for a few days in hopes of getting...

    I started the gluten-free challenge with my son today which is going to be hard. If anybody has suggestions on what to send with him for lunch it would be a great help. Today he went with yogurt and apple and some corn chips. I spoke to the school and they are not allowed to heat things up for him that he brings in, state law or something. His bloodwork...

    The pediatricians office called with the results. They said that they all look normal and the EMA is not back yet. IgA-9, Anti-Gliadin- 11 (is this the same as IgG?) and transglut..... is a 4, the nurse could not pronounce. She told me that if my son is still having the diareha, etc. to try changing his diet. What do I do? I have felt 99% better sense...

    I have had the same situation sense going gluten-free as well. For me, I notice it more in the morning on my way to work which is scary. I usually feel better after I eat something. My routine is to have some fruit for breakfast once I am settled in at my desk. I should eat before I leave but that would require getting up earlier and I am still having...

    I have been eating alot of fruits, yogurt, meat and rice. It has happened a few times so can't pin point it. It's weird, but so is alot of things that happen in the "bowl" for us. Kind of embarrassing to have to investigate droppings. Sometimes I feel like I'm checking my dog for worms, lol.

    I always thought that it was normal for peas and corn to enter the bowl in the same form that they went in. As they say, learn something new every day. I have noticed in the last week or two (gluten-free for 6 weeks) that my stool (soft but formed) is 2 colors, like a green and brown. Is this normal? Never seen anything like it before.

    If this has been posted before please forgive as I am a newbie. Has anyone ever experienced similiar situation. I have had swelling and severe crippling pain in every joint in my body accompanied by hives. This has happened 4 times over a period of 15 years or so. Each time the doctors could find no reason and wrote it off to an allergic reaction, they...

    I can't believe this, what a relief. My husband told the pediatrician that I was diognosed with celiac after the doctor said that I told him I had gerd. As mentioned before I have not gotton a diagnosis of celiac disease from a doctor. Anyway the pediatrician read my list of symptoms that my son has had and said it does sound like celiac. He ordered all...

    Kaiti, Thanks for the heads up on Betty Crocker. My son also noticed that Wegman's brands list gluten-free right on the products. That makes shopping easier. Medaka, I did not ask for the numbers on my test, but I am going too now not that I will know what it means. I will post those numbers here.

    Kaiti, It was a Wal-Mart brand box mix, you know the kind with the powered cheese. It was probably not a very good idea to eat it at all. From now on I will make it from scratch. It is tuff with both my husband and myself working and then going home to my son and four step children to feed, etc. I have been eating fresh fruit, vegi's and meat. Hoping...

    My husband is at the doctor now with my son armed with a list of symptoms and blood work that I want done. I too thought it was suspicious that my GI told me to stay away from breads and pasta. Just the other day I ate scalloped potatoes. My husband read the label and said there was no wheat. Well low and behold I bloated (my potatoe baby) and had...
