  1. We have no celiac group that I've found and only outback with a gluten-free menue. So thanks for your ideas. Josh, hope you feel better. I called the time I got sick and they said they could accomodate me but no luck. I think about 3 hours away there are quite a bit of choices. So many of you only eat out if you have to, not for fun?
  2. I was sick for a month the only time I did. Not sure if I should brave it again or just realize that things could be worse than no eating out. We have an outback in our area. That is the only one that has gluten-free menu in our area. What is your favorite restaurant checking gluten-free site on line?
  3. As to what I can tell so far, there is no support group in this area for celiac. Have you been in a group or ever thought to start one. Does ANYONE know of a good one in place that would share their agenda and what they do? This is something that has been on my mind. I don't know about you, but for me this is hard at times. We put so much work into all we...
  4. Don't tell me that. I'm aftaid to get my kids results this week. I'll need a soulder to cry on if they have it.
  5. I seem to be able to eat eggs in cookies. But in the pancakes it is questionable. Though it seems to be ok in french toast. So that brings me back to the baking mix. How would you decifer the culprit out of the ingredients. clueless. How do you test for egg alergy? Can alergy Dr. do test for eating eggs alergy? Could he be of any more help with baking ingredients...
  6. We finally got 6 yr old tested. They had me wait outside of room. That did the trick. There was some screaming, but they did get it, took 3 of them. Oh my.
  7. So should I just go for it and try the test again tomorrow in the morning or wait until after school. Please give me your advice. The buzzy was a cute idea, but I'm not going to get one by tomorrow. How about a bag of ice. I could bring some in a cooler and we could ice it. I used ice when we did IVF shots and the frozen bag of peas was a life saver. So maybe...
  8. I can eat gluten free cakes and cookies no problem. It just seems to be the pancake mixes. How do I test for this. I can eat buttered toast. So pretty clueless at this point. I eat millet bread no problem. I can eat potatoes. Not sure about the quinoa. I had surgery 3 weeks ago, almost 4 so things could be messed up in there. Do I take immodium if I have...
  9. Does anyone here have IBS? Books say you need to eat a little all day to not get the d. Is that true for you? Also does anyone know about gluten-free pancake mixes? I seem to get the d the day I eat them, any clue here? This time it was bisquick?
  10. I haven't taken any today and yesterday. I had major surgery 3 wks ago. This evening I got it bad at church. I had gluten free soup and chips before and then within 30 minutes, it started. Sorry to be graffic, I went a whole bunch and then had the runs pretty bad. But did anyone else experience this? The meds back me up, so I'm hoping it may be related to...
  11. If someone could tell me more about the numbing patch, I'd sure appreciate it. What is it called? Do I need a perscription? I want to get her tested, please help. For those that already chimed in, thanks. Anything to pick up over the counter? The blood draw office suggested getting her tested between 10:00 and 2:30,most techs on duty. But 2:30 was a bad...
  12. Ok daughter was so apprehensive that they tried for an hour and a half. Two uncessful sticks. My husband is cursing needless to say. I'll try again next week earlier in the morning. Advice on successful testing would be appreciated! She's 6 and willful like noone's business. So frustrating. So those of you that really don't need the test for the school to...
  13. I am reading this thread and wondering if my biopsy was correct if the endo Dr. said he only took 1 sample. Is my confirmation accurate if he only took 1 sample? One poster said you need many for an accurate diagnosis. Someone please explain.
  14. I'll let you know the results. Gotta love the prize box!
  15. I'm a bad speller sometimes. Thanks for the answer.
  16. My husband wants him to have it because he does not realize how bad he behaves when he has it. The teachers usually pass out the cup cakes right out the door or the last 5 minutes of class. So they don't experience the behavior. I approached the school last yr and they don't want to change anything. Holliday parties are super out of hand. Every mom brings...
  17. With all of our stomach aches, not sure if it is safe or not?
  18. How do I get him tested for food dye? Two days ago he went into an itch session for hours with an itchy mouth driving him nuts with lots of crying. We didn't know what it was from. He was sweeping leaves right before. So we think it was some kind of allergy to plants. We are going to ask for an epipen to be on the safe side.
  19. I just don't know what to do for the school year. Do I try to allow it to be fed to him in moderation or just say he can't have it period? He gets mean and has no self control when he eats it. Grandma fed him a big slurpy that was red today and when they got home, I knew something was wrong by his behavior. If you know of a forum dealing with this that could...
  20. My mom thinks I am wrong to get the kids tested for celiac. She says they don't have symptoms and if they test positive "with no symptoms" that would be mean of me to make them eat gluten free. I'm going to get them tested next week. Just kind of bummed with no family support. How do you explain this to family members?
  21. Wasn't real happy with the info on the phone so does anyone know? Thanks so much. Person on the phone didn't assure me for sure.
  22. Thanks Gluten Free Mama for the web site. It is perfect. It is so good you should have it on the home page here. They have a new e-book. Good read.
  23. Thanks for helping me see it in a different light, didn't meen to ruffle feathers. Sorry.
  24. to be gluten free? Has anyone had problems with it when made from wheat? How do we know it is gluten free?
  25. My kids are 6 and 7 and so messy. Crumbs always everywhere. They are always eating bread. Everything must have gluten all over it. I haven't healed completely so getting rid of all the gluten crumbs may help me. That is why we would go at least gluten bread free. We make bread gluten free. If we can figure it out, we will do it.
