    I really need a good pie crust recipe! One that holds together, and I could use for fried pies

    Question: Whats your favorite gluten free bread mix? I have been using Bob's Red mill Wonderful Bread but, honestly I am not a fan of the taste so I add basil, garlic, cheese to disguise the bean flavor I taste. I turns out well with those additions, but I was just curious what else was out there. Thanks

    Just an update.....I had an appointment to take her to our doc, and she went to the bathroom, it was normal again. After 3days of white poo, it was brown again! The doc said they didn't need to see her but to bring her in if it happened again.

    But what causes a lack of bile salts? Is that a celiac thing?

    Hi I have a question for you all regarding my daughters stool. This past week we left my kids at their grandmothers house for a few days, where I am pretty confident they got glutened. My daughter who is suspected celiac but not confirmed, has had belly aches since she got home on Wednesday. She is now pooing this lovely stool that resembles white playdoh...

    Hi, I have been experiencing some symptoms, which I know can be due to so many different things and I was hoping you all could lead me in a direction to persue. 2 1/2 years ago I was led to a celiac diagnosis because my Alopecia Areata was getting stronger and lasting longer. Going gluten free not only stabilized my hairloss, but it also regulated...

    ARCHIVED Alopecia

    thegirlsmom replied to BSVD's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    I have alopecia areata and have for the last 11 Years, I have recently discovered a spot on my head right at the top of my crown, that I too am trying to figure out how to handle when it gets bigger. Right now I am thinking pretty scarves and headbands might do the trick, but we will see where the spot grows to. What I would recomend to you is to get...

    Interesting! Anyone know about sheep cheese? What symptoms does your child have with dairy?

    Thank you for all your replies. I just wanted to send an update to my question. It is now 3 1/2 months after my dd 6year molars emerged. When I took her to the dentist in Dec. they sealed the tooth and told me I had no worries. It just looked funny and it would be just as strong as any other tooth. Unfortunately it has been causing her pain and we found...

    So today I took her to the dr because I suspected a uti. Well it turns out I was right - but not only did they find that she had a uti, but also an ear infection and pink eye! I just don't understand how this could be since she has just recently been on antibiotics for a double ear infection. She has always been a fairly healthy child. When we got home...

    Hi my daughter is getting her 6 year molars in and I just looked at them and they are coming in soft and a brown grey color. Now when I say soft, I mean if I take a fork and rub it on the tooth seems to disintigrate. Has anyone here seen anything like that? My daugther does not have an official diagnosis of celiac, but I have enough suspicions that...

    I have had aa for the last 10 years. It has gotten increasingly worse over time and through a lot of research I discovered the link to celiac. Dec 30 2010, I went gluten free. I found myself very discouraged as well when my hair continued to fall out and would have given up on the diet if my husband did not hold me to it. He said I was a different person...

    I have a 5 year old who everytime I ran my fingers through her hair she would lose 2 to 5 hairs. This may not seem like much untill you run your fingers through over and over and it continues to fall out.I have alopecia areata which led me to my celiac dx so I know the hair thing is a sensitive subject for me. I have taken all of my kids off gluten...

    Last January I gave up gluten to see if it would help my Alopecia Areata. Looking back I had a LOT of Cross contamination during the first 6 months but I still felt so much better. The only digestive issues I have ever had (which I have had my whole life) was constipation. I was basically constipated all the time with the exception of right before I ovulated...
  15. thegirlsmom
    Yes I do know that it is directly related to gluten. I have watched his symptoms and what he eats. It's a cycle. he eats something, tummy gets icky, swelling begins, gas begins, when he starts to feel better a week later, he gets grumpy. Then when he starts to feel normal again after 2 weeks he eats something else that messes him up. He has been trying...

    My husband has been having some digestion issues over the last 3 months and we are planning on doing some testing come the first of the year. Over Thanksgiving I talked to his family and found there to be a family history of colon problems including: His Aunt just had some of her colon removed, his cousin recently went to the er with a ruptured colon due...

    ' That's kind of what I am thinking. Also, I realized the time she was most successful she had a timer that she just went when it beeped. Again....no need to feel there.
  18. thegirlsmom
    Thanks everyone for your help. I have wondered if she can feel it or not. This week she has had really bad d so I think one way or another we are going to crack down on the gluten. After that we may try a sort of elimination diet to see if there is a difference. The one time I was obsessive with gluten and dairy after 2 weeks she came to me and said...

    So I have the mixer. I bought a nice one for making homemade bread and then I found out I had to go Gluten free. Have you found a good bread making cookbook?
  20. thegirlsmom
    I know this....but what do you think it could be related to? If there was some physical problem, then how could she stay dry for so long with "motivation"? Which is why I have thought it was just willfulness or laziness. It's just been recently that I have explored the idea of it being food related. Our last incident happened on a day she woke up with...

    My daughter is almost 5 years old(Jan 4) and is still having big issues with staying dry through the day. In any given day she seems to change her undies due to leakage, and sometimes she doesn't make it in time. She is the youngest of 4 girls and very independent, so she has always taken care of things by herself. We have gone through a lot of frustration...

    I would like a good cookbook with baked goods that I can take to potlucks and not have people say, "Oh it's her gluten free food." I used to be a pretty good cook and it kind of hurts my feelings that my food can't compare with other stuff. Also I would love a good rolls recipe. Thanks
  23. thegirlsmom
    Not having accurate testing for your kids.
  24. thegirlsmom
    I also have an issue with gas in the evening. It seemed to go away when I went dairy free.
  25. thegirlsmom
    I agree with you completely. How would I go about finding a good GP who would be sympathetic to gluten issues.( The irony here is his brother is a GP but he doesn't want to talk to him about his problem). He has been very low gluten for the last 6 months or so. What tests should he try to get done? We are in the Nashville TN area.
