  6. we are in Canada too, and we are debating whether to get a biopsy for my daughter, habeas all the symptoms and our to feels at the very least she is gluten intolerant, but we are unsure what to do as you mentioned......tax break....and also would extended medical cover meds that need to be gluten free without a formal diagnosis, and would schools help us...
  7. ask your dietician about omega 3 vitamin d and calcium supplements, as our daughter can't have dairy she suggested those to make sure she isn't missing out on anything as for the milk, if he won't drink the alternatives try soy yoghurt, or even a flavoured milk and over a few weeks mix it with unsweetened almond and I bet in 2 weeks time he'll be drinking...
  8. there are other great ways to get fat, our daughter has an anaphylactic reaction to dairy, so we have had o be creative. if he wants chicken fry it with the skin on, add vegan margarine to everything, most vegan cheese and margarines are also gluten free, we use fleichmanns, and tuffuti brand, tahini is great source of fat, use it as a dip
  9. weight for dome reason seems to be their guiding light. If your other daughter cf sweat text was questionnaire I'd ask for it to be done again
  10. I'd ask for allergy test and cf test to be redone. Did she have the sweat test? Our daughter is having her cf blood redone even though she had a negative sweat test because they want to double check as with most tests at 2 they are so unreliable. Also what about tb?it is mire prevalent these days it not the first think in the doctors mind;-)~
  11. has she been tested for cystic fibrosis? that was the first thing our daughter was tested for as she has had diahreea pretty much constantly from 13months (she's now nearly 3) i think it is alos an autoimmune disorder, and it was explaine to us that chest issues are not always the first things to appear, and not all kids are failure to thrive
  12. our doc said growth isnt always a good indicator of celiac, even though our daughter put on a pound and grew 3 cm in a month he still oredered a full celiac panel as he said not all kids are the stereotypical pot belly and stick limbs we were always told maybe our daughter was going to be petite but her 8 month old sister is the same size she was at 13 months...
  13. apart from the tummy troubles she is as strong as an ox, we get a cold for a month, she gets it for a day the only real thing that has changed with gluten free is her bread and cereal

Based on her symptoms gastro says if it is positive celiac disease if negative glutennintolerance. after all , blood work and stool samples were taken we went gluten free....now on day 3 our main issue is behead 2 huge very loose cream coloured stools, then...
  15. my daughter has the same and then it changed to green and grainy, the pale and string like, we are going to contact her gastro if it is like this tomorrow, we are hoping it is just her system detoxing itself
