    Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

    My daughter has had insomnia since I brought her home from the hospital as an infant. It is genetic and I use Trazadone to sleep but our dr. won't give her anything as she is 14.5. She is unable to take melatonin as it kicks in her celiac and the valerian isn't working any long. She is a hyper sensetive celiac so I am afraid of trying the homopathic route...

    Rusla, When is the one in May? I hope to be visiting Calgary May 12th-16th. And thanks for the info on Moxi's. My daughter was happy to hear that. Corrine

    If I could make a suggetion, my daughter has many allergies to fruits and veggies. We found this out just after her diagnoses as our doctor ordered allergy testing for her. Her allergies go under the birch/alder family. All her fruits/veggies must be cooked and rotated. She has celiac on the surpreme scale of sensativity. Getting allergy testing should...

    ARCHIVED Pets With Cd

    Corrine replied to plantime's topic in Publications & Publicity

    Hi, I haven't been on board for many months. But with spring break I have some time. I have always wondered if animals could have celiac. My first schnauzer suffered from ceboria, a skin condition. The vet reconmended lamb and rice. He did okay but not great. He died at age 10 from a heart attack due to an elarged heart. My daughter was already diagnosed...

    My husband gets these cyst like things as well. They are horribly ichy and he scratches them until they bleed and then they don't itch anymore. Then he has these ugly scabs. The dermetologist said it wasn't DH but I suspected it was. In June he consented to going gluten-free. He did have a blood test that came back negative so we're going this route...

    I was wondering if there was a celiac day, week, or month? I want to write an article for our free press newspaper but want it to coincide with that time. Does anyone know?

    Hi Lucy, I've homeschooled for 12 years now. There are a way more positives than negatives. My kids not only acedemics but life skills as well. My son is 16 and my daughter is 13 and both are out going, can carry on a conversation with people of all ages. Their education is very well rounded. There are companies that actively seek out homeschooled graduates...

    My daughter can't eat poultry too often as she did test positive to having an allery to it. We grow our own chicken with friends so our meat is additive free. But to Be on the safe side I rotate our diet. My mom has always gotten sick from turkey but then again I think she has celiac disease. May be there's a connection there somewhere.

    I'd like to know why being thin is a problem just like why is being a large person a problem? I have a girl friend who has a Russian heritage and she is a big girl. She's not fat but large. Thin or big, one can be healthy. My husband is 6 feet 200-210 lbs and according to the charts he should be 175. He has a large frame and would look 'underweight'...

    Are you dairy free? I know from experience that dairy can cause constipation.

    Hi Shirley, Save On Foods here carries Kinnicinick stuff, Tinkyada pasta, and lots of other stuff. Your store there could contact one of their other stores to see what they carry.

    I am now 'regular' with once a day sometimes up to 3x. I have had or do have all of the above. Now what I'm thinking is, this is what normal is. Comparing notes and it seems to me that the rest of the world is not normal and we are. What do you think of that?

    Thanks very much. They're not for me but my daughter. We're going to a Sunday School picnic on Monday and I can never remember to phone FritoLay. MSG doesn't seem to bother Hannah. That's incredible since so many things do.

    Hey Canadian friends, are Cheetos gluten-free? I can never remember to call during their time and they haven't a email on the Canadian site. Thanks for the help.

    Hi Mary Janae, My daughter was diagnosed in 2001 and at the same time my dr ordered allergy testing. She has major allergies to the birch/alder family. This includes the apple family, plum family, parsley family, potato, hazelnut, walnut, and almonds. Raw foods are more apt to cause a reaction than cooked foods, I was told but not with Hannah. I finally...

    Ms Sillyak, If I didn't know you were from Flordia, I would of sworn that my sister had wrote that. Your dinner conversation sounds like the type of fun my sister and I have. I suspect she has celiac disease so getting her on to the web will not only inform her but entertain her as well.

    ARCHIVED Gene Testing

    Corrine replied to Corrine's topic in Doctors

    Thanks for the info. It had been so long since I posted this thread that I had given up on it. I will look into Entrolab. I do listen to my body as that truly is the best way. When I approached my doctor about having my son tested he gave me a look that said "Not through me.". Since my son has extreme allergies to milk and soy I want to stay on top of...

    I haven't read too much of this thread but I was thinking that one way of getting celiac disease known to the general public is via hollywood. But at the same time it's a bit embarassing telling the world that you can have diarreha like a flash flood. It is one thing to say that here as we're all in the same boat but to say that to millions is another...

    I don't understand something, why do you get sick going 100% dairy free. We've been dairy and soya free for years with no problems.

    ARCHIVED New Symptom

    Corrine replied to LRgirl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Hi Traci, My daughter Hannah carried in the flour bag for my mom and her cheeks broke out in DH. It took about two weeks for the rash to go away. So we learned that even touching it can cause problems.

    Go for the Immodium. It's a life saver for my daughter. It works every time and doesn't bung you up. We use the fast acting kind.

    Hi Jan, Go to the University of Maryland School of Medicineweb site and email Dr. Alessio Fasano, Center for Celiac Research with any questions. He will email you back. He may be able to point you in the right direction.

    I make food ahead of time and freeze it in those ziplock throw away containers. I too bring my own pot, fry pan, and utensils. My daughter is ultra sensitive and therefore all must be gluten-free. I bake an assortment cookies and muffins and bring potato chips and chocolate bars. Not the healthiest but we eat healthy at home.

    I must be odd because I lost weight and continue to do so. I fact I need to be careful that I don't loose too much. But one thing is I have found many foods that I cannot tolerate. Corn, chocolate, coconut milk, the list goes on. Also when a member of my family finds that they cannot eat something I test to see if that food has an effect on me as well...
