    What I am doing this year (being my first year on gluten-free diet with me and my son.... the only candy that will be in our house will be gluten-free (for handing out, and the enevitable leftovers).... and when the kids come home, I will do a buy back program.... where depending on how much NON gluten-free Stuff they end up I will determine a price per piece...

Lately my right ankle has been really bad even tho I have been 100% gluten free.... but it could just be edema too (I have been diagnosed with that in the past too...) somedays I keep telling my hubby that the first day they offer brain implants into other...

    Thank you all for the replies... He is very picky and was a little upset when I told him that he couldn't have mcdonald's chicken nuggets anymore... (he equated that with no mcdonalds at all...) i told him there were other things he can eat there... and he seemed to be ok with that... we haven't been to mcdonalds in a while anyways.... he did have...

    Hey all... Well my Dr. just called me and let me know that she is calling the GI docs cause she is sure how to interpret his results (I suppose it is good she is calling someone else for a second opinion).... The tests she did and their results were the following: (I think I got the IgG and the IgA results are the right way around....they might...

    Hey celiac3270, I would love a copy as well.... maya@charter.net thanks! --maya

    thanks all for the advice... His issue is that he wants to wait until after the party so my sister won't have to make a special cake... we are having a star-wars birthday and the cake is going to be shaped like a light-saber (red of course since my son's favorite character is Anakin).... he doesn't want her to have to go through anything special to make...

    wow...I thought I was the only one that stares at her poop and evalutates it LOL I also have the floaty type, and the really loose ones and I don't know if it is cause I am still being glutenated somewhere or if it is just cause my body is still not free of all the gluten that I had been eating... (I have been gluten-free for about a month now)....

    Hi all... I am typing this in between trips to the potty.... I am trying to figure out what is causing my stomach issues today...(i.e. if i was glutenated or if it is something else).... All I had for lunch was Tunafish Salad (made with Gluten Free Hellmanns mayo) on some chebe bread... and some Tostitos chips and some Gingerale... I am trying to figure...

    well my husband's problem is that my son doesn't have any of the "icky" symptoms... so he doesn't think that it is doing damage...and he is not 100% sure that he even has celiac and says that he doesn't want to do something if it is not going to be what is causing him to be smaller than normal... sigh...(i know that didn't make sense)... it is hard to...

    that might have been it... they were in a cooler (we brought them to a picnic) but they had thawed in the cooler and I didn't heat them or toast them.... I will try one tomorrow morning with some jelly or my favorite, Nutella.... Thanks! --maya
