ARCHIVED Ready To Start Bread Baking, But Still Some Questions
blmoreschi posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
It's been two weeks now since my 11 year old was diagnosed with Celiac, and I think we've made a great start on the gluten-free diet. To my knowledge she hasn't had gluten - but I'm not saying it's not possible we've made mistakes. We are going mostly gluten-free in our house. I'm keeping sandwich rolls in the freezer to make sandwiches for my husband and... -
ARCHIVED Question About Snacks For A Tween
blmoreschi replied to blmoreschi's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
The two "gluten-free" things that she has really like so far are Udi's bagels and Glutino pretzels. She didn't like the Glutino strawberry bar at all yesterday. I've always thought she was a pretty good eater, but this is making me realize just how particular she is! Her favorite things to eat are red pepper strips and Caesar salads....so as I said, we're... -
ARCHIVED Question About Snacks For A Tween

Thanks everyone for all the great suggestions! I was really thinking about "shelf stable" snacks just to leave in the bag for weeks on end in case of emergency, but all of the refrigerated/fresh suggestions are great, too. I appreciate the help! -
ARCHIVED Question About Snacks For A Tween
blmoreschi posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I need some recommendation for pre-packaged snacks for my 11 year old who is newly diagnosed. We are doing very well on everything else, but I really need something she likes to have for when the hungries hit - for instance, to leave in her dance bag and in her backpack and my purse. She was iffy on granola bars before, and we've now tried 3 gluten-free... -
ARCHIVED Questions Re Blood Tests
blmoreschi replied to blmoreschi's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Update: We saw the pediatric GI today, and when I handed him the blood test results it was almost comical. We had been talking about symptoms and he had been saying "if it's Celiac" etc. We didn't realize that he hadn't gotten the results from the pediatrician. So when he saw them his reaction was funny - he did a head shake and said "okaaaay". As you all... -
ARCHIVED Questions Re Blood Tests
blmoreschi replied to blmoreschi's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks very much for those replies. It is so nice to have the members of this forum as a resource, because there is so much to read on the internet but I am suspicious about the accuracy of about 1/2 of it! Most of it I can sift through and make sense of, but the blood test information was confusing me - and Peter your explanation made it all perfectly clear... -
ARCHIVED Questions Re Blood Tests
blmoreschi posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hello all- I'm new here. My 11 year old just got positive blood test results and is scheduled for an endoscopy/biopsy on Wednesday. I know that's a quick turnaround, but I think there are some doctors feeling awfully guilty that they didn't figure this out sooner. She has no GI symptoms, but after her 6th arm fracture last year we started looking into what...
