  1. Just diagnosed with Uveitis in one eye. I am already gluten-free since +blood test 2 years ago.
  2. When we were trying to conceive after 2 wonderful babies and then 3 consecutive miscarriages (likely celiac related I now know) I found another forum "bellybelly" to be, like here, a wealth of information. It really helps chatting with people who are in the same situation as you. And it was so cool to see people who were lamenting "is this ever going...
  3. They could choose to do the same thing with dairy, or eggs. No child is safe with the attitudes they had shown. I love your quote!
  4. Would this not be a case of abuse, or assault? Intentionally causing harm. You explained she couldn't have these things because it would hurt her and they then intentionally (although they agreed otherwise!) gave it to her. And now she is hurt! I am so mad for you!! The mommma bear in me wants to go tear a strip off them and make them understand...
  5. I do think you need the Dr to read these results again. It looks like pretty much all of them fall out (or almost) out of the normal ranges. You need to go back with test in hand to ask again. What any of it means is beyond me but the practice of getting copies of your tests is a smart one.
  6. When I meet "celiacs" who feel like they can cheat once in a while. I immediately wonder if their Dr actually told them that and when. If I had listened to the Dr who diagnosed me(4 1/2 months ago) I would have "continued eating gluten until the symptoms got worse, and not tested my kids until they were 12 because a gluten-free diet can effect growth" ...
  7. It seems more than a little extreme to expel you for being actually sick. Asking for a meeting with you, your parents, and administration to make sure that the school has a clear understanding of your health. (I'd paint a vivid picture of exactly why you can't be in class and exactly how hard you try to avoid gluten so they understand it is not because...
  8. We were whining that we haven't got any summer yet. And then I saw the news about the heat wave. I think I'll just put a sweater on and get over it. That looks too hot for me. But would one nice day be too much to ask for. For the last 6 weeks we haven't had anything over 20c and it has rained everyday. I keep expecting to see the leaves change colour...
  9. Yikes, I hate it when they don't do what they say they are going to do. I think because you've only been gluten-free for such a short time I'd eat gluten and lots of it for a week or so before testing. There is a good flow chart by the mayo clinic to diagnose celiacs on this forum. Print it and take it with you so you don't have any more problems at the...
  10. I gained 10 lbs in the first two months (and wasn't trying to gain or lose) Now after 4 months gluten-free we are back to normal again.
  11. If you are delaying gluten until a year you have delayed it about 5-7 months. So it takes the same amount of time just the child is a little older. It seems to me to be mostly the same. Only so many kids don't have gluten issues even in celiac predisposed kids.
  12. On the TTC front I found another forum "Bellybelly" to bet full of helpful people like here. It is nice to have support from people in the same situation as yourself. Wishing you much luck on your baby wishes!
  13. I have my own ice cream maker and the biggest problem is it tastes so awesome I eat way, way too much. My family has no idea how much it actually makes.
  14. Although not LDS, but Christian, I was bring a piece of bread and then bringing it out at the appropriate time for the past few months. Last week my pastor asked about how to make the communion bread for everyone gluten-free. I was surprised and happy to be included.
  15. Too bad we can't selectively choose where to lose the hair.
