Does anyone have a yummy breakfast/brunch casserole or likewise recipe to share?? My dad is newly diagnosed celiac and they are staying over for Chrsitmas morning. I don't have a whole lot of time to experiment unfortunatley so I am looking for something tried and true! I do have a son with celiac so I am used to cooking gluten free... the problem is...

Hmmmm... I am only using the rice milk for cooking but perhaps I still need to find another alternative. He drinks a specialized elemental formula for his "milk" but I still need something to make him pancakes or waffles. He doesn't eat those very often... actualy only Saturday mornings... but still. Most of what he eats is naturally gluten-free.....

I keep reading comments that Rice Dream has gluten in it... but there website claims its gluten free?? Can someone please clear this up for me?? I am confused!! Open Original Shared Link

Did they do an upper gi scope?? Going formula only sounds like a treatment for an EOS and not celiac. My son takes Petamen Jr for milk/soy allergies and failure to thrive. Its been a GODSEND for him. ETA... we live in Cols area and go to Nationwide. We've been veyr happy with my son's care there but if you are looking for a second opinion I've...

He's already milk, soy, peanut, and tree nut free do to IgE food allergies. He's got a pretty limited diet... which is part of the reason we dragged our feet on the gluten free trial for so long.

I've been on and off this site over the past 3 years as we've tried to figure out my son's issues... and here I am back again begging for some help! My 3.5 year old son has had chronic constipation since nearly birth (started at about 6 weeks). He's been on double the adult doses of Miralax since he was 7 months old and still would completely back...

We are pulling Gluten from my 3 year olds diet for a trial. I am looking for a suggestion for the best flour substitute?? I make him muffins for breakfast every week and they are the only way I can get veggies in him so I don't want to loose them! What would work well?? It needs to be nut and soy free as well (food allergies).

My son is milk/soy/peanut/tree nut allergic... it really limits what he can eat. 1. Milk replacements? Right now he's on an elemental formula because he was failure to thrive and had major GI issues so that is his "milk" currently. 2. Butter replacements? There are a few milk/soy free "butters" out there but they are hard to find anytime other...

Thank you for your response!! My younger son is already milk/soy free because of food allergies. He takes elemental formula for supplemental nutrition for borderline failure to thrive. So making the rest of us milk/soy free for a while wouldn't be tough. Going gluten free however sounds SOOO overwelming to me with all the other food allergies we are dealing...

I was on this site 2 years ago looking for answers for my younger son who ultimately tested negative for celiac at 20 months of age (although STILL has bowel issues now at over 3 but I digress). Now I am revisiting the idea with my older son who is now 5. He's been complaining of intermittent stomach pain for over 1.5 years now. He's been treated for reflux...

This has been 2 years in the making but I think we are finally going to trial a gluten free diet with my 2.5 year old son. He's had constipation issues almost since birth... we tried every dietary measure known to man without luck and finally had to resort to Miralax daily when he was 7 months old... he's been on that ever since and can't poop without it...

I forgot to add before... Alimentum is made from corn so if she tolerated that she is unlikely to have a corn allergy.

Everything came back negative for celiac. Antigliadin Abs, IgA: <1 (0-4 normal) Antigliadin Abs, IgG: 3 (<9 normal) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA: <1 (0-3 normal) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG: 2 (0-5 normal) Endomysial Antibody IgA: Negative Immunglobulin A, serum: 125 (70-400 normal) My CBC was totally normal too... hgb was...

We have lots of food allergies here Alimentum still has milk proteins in it... they are broken down significantly but they are still there. Something like 10-20% of children with milk allergies will NOT be able to tolerate Alimentum. So that might have been part of her problem... she didn't react as badly becuase it was broken down but her body still...

(I meant to post this in here ) A positive blood test or a positive biopsy?? I guess my question is does the intenstinal damage cause the bloodwork to show ++ or does the presense of the antibodies in the blood cause the intestinal damage?? Does that make sense at all?? Can you have ++ bloodwork and a negative biopsy?? And can you have neg...
