ARCHIVED Why Allergies To Eggs But Not Chicken Meat?
Hennessey replied to Jeepster's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
My oldest son has the same fruit allergy (sounds the same), he is allergic to apples, pears, peaches, plums, cherries, apple cider. The allergist said it is actually the "tree" that he is allergic to and not the fruit, but said why bother eating the fruit since he will still have the bad reactions like you talked about. The allergist said if he cooked the... -
ARCHIVED Anyone Else Cried Over This?
Hennessey replied to skoki-mom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I feel your pain.. try being allergic to wheat, dairy, soy, eggs, egg whites, beef, pears, bananas, apples..probably more that I don't even know of yet....it does really stink, frustration/tears are acceptable.... but hey, there are worse things. -
ARCHIVED More Restrictions
Hennessey replied to DylansMom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My son has numerous allergies dairy being one of them...for margarine I use Fleishmans Light Margarine...it is soy free as well.. What about trying sorbet for a treat instead of having to deal with lactate pills. I also give my son vanilla flavored rice milk mixed with his prescription formula, there is plain flavor too that I use for baking but you need... -
ARCHIVED Maybe I'm Not Celiac After All...
Hennessey replied to musikate's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
"Volvulus" is twisting of the intestine. I find it very odd that a doctor would diagnose someone with that and not do anything about it. (Malpractice) Did you have upper GI to diagnose that problem?? Very serious issue you are talking about if infact that is what you have...life threatening if not taken care of in time. See attached website on malrotation... -

Hennessey replied to kimber's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Have you tried potato?? White rice?? My son is dairy, soy, wheat, eggs, beef etc...it does get tricky, he is only 1. He likes sweet potato as well. You can make fries out of them too. All Natural Alexia brand french fries are gluten free as well, they have Yukon Gold julienne fries with sea salt, and some others that have different flavoring in them.... -

ARCHIVED Just Have To Vent....
Hennessey replied to Hennessey's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Oh you can bet I will have the sharpie out...I had already marked some things in the cabinet prior to this happening. I will mark the tupperware containers from now on as well, and verbally tell him that they have been marked. After last night I think he is starting to understand more. Nikolas will be 1yr in a couple of weeks and my husband can see today... -

ARCHIVED Just Have To Vent....
Hennessey replied to Hennessey's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
ugh...he says he thought it was just for Nikolas since it was in a tupperware container, he didn't think I saved anything unless it was for Nikolas. I am not a big left over person, so I can kind of see his point (but not really). I mean if he even looked at the pasta it is clearly different looking....I'm sorry he is just not on my A-list tonight. I will... -

ARCHIVED Discussing Endoscopic Procedure With 7 Year Old
Hennessey replied to jsmasudek's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I just had to add that you have to take into consideration he is 7, no matter what other advice you may get from well meaning people, he is just 7, a baby. The less said the best...take it from a teacher, special ed, preschool, elementary, mom...and you know your child best....7yr old doesn't need all that technical information....again my advice say as... -
ARCHIVED Discussing Endoscopic Procedure With 7 Year Old
Hennessey replied to jsmasudek's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I had it done a couple of months ago to widen my esophagus, unrelated to celiac, and I didn't recall anything. I think if it were my child I would just say the doctor is going to take a peek in your mouth, serioulsy by the time the medication kicks in he won't even remember a thing. I don't have any recolection of any tube in my throat at all. I was just... -

You know I am just going to make the rice krispee cake. I will just make it really big, use lasagna size pans and layer it and I can make frosting and maybe color it light blue.....my son won't know the difference, but atleast it will look good.

I was going to ask the same question....it is so gross, so I am thinking I am making it wrong also. Same issue eggs. I just made the cinnamon kind and just used extra oil and applesauce....not so good! Tried the pizza one last week, used sweet potato instead of egg....hard outside, gooey inside.....

Hi, I'm glad your doing well and they finally figured it out for you before it was to late. Yes, my son was very ill shortly after birth, life threatening & once they knew what it was he was in surgery within minutes. His bowel was twisted as well, so they put the large intestine on one side and small on the other and removed his appendix. I know...

Hi there, just read that you had malrotation. My son had that and was operated on 9/11/05 he was only 10 days old. Wow, I was surprised to see you had it at your age, I guess it can happen anytime. They did tell me that it could happen again to him at anytime or may never ever happen again. I hope your doing well, I'm sure it must have been awful for...

Hennessey replied to Hennessey's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
ok, thanks, I will try that as well. There's got to be something that works. I just made a terrible corn bread and then terrible cupcakes. I even tried to make that chebe bread, the pizza one, but you need eggs, so I used vegetable puree for that one.......yuck!! It sounds like everyone loves that bread so I know it has to be because of the eggs........ -

Hennessey replied to Hennessey's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Live in MA, don't have Wegmans. I will keep looking, there's got to be something that is soy free as well. I just tried a banana for an egg, it was ok but gives it a little bit of a banana flavor and it was for corn bread. I think I will try applesauce again and see how that works. I know you can use Fruit Puree as well...... Thanks for your help.
