    Hi! Just a couple of thoughts - my daughter was never, ever dry at night and we figured that she was just taking her time although her twin brother was immediately dry at night even though he potty trained a little later. Camryn was also VERY constipated and never really presented with any other symptoms of celiac. Before she was diagnosed, the pediatrician...

    Hi! My daughter used to complain that her legs hurt (this was years before we got a diagnosis). We thought it was just "growing pains", whatever those are. But sometimes in the morning when she woke up it would hurt so badly that she couldn't walk and had to crawl around the house. Of course we just thought she was being dramatic. Since her diagnosis...

    Hello helpful people!! My 6 year old daughter has been struggling with learning to read and other challenges of first grade. She has been diagnosed with Celiac for about 8 months and despite our best attempts at getting her gluten free her ttg numbers were still high at her 6 month check. We are working hard (and I mean REALLY hard) on this. But, in the...

    My 6 year old daughter was diagnosed last year with both JD and celiac disease. We got the diabetes diagnosis first and started her on multiple injection therapy and then she was unbelievably sick for the following 6 weeks. The brilliant pediatrician said "I am so sure that it is viral that I would stake my reputation on it and am going to write you a lab...

    Hi! My daughter is pretty sick of most school lunch ideas but here are a couple of recipes that usually perk her up: Pasta Salad: Tinkyada pasta (dream shapes) any veggies diced, we usually use celery, carrots, red pepper cheese stick cut up into little rounds cut up black olives Toss with gluten-free ranch dressing. We take this on the road...

    Ursa - Thanks so much for the comment about vit. E. Just for other's reference, I just checked with Solgar who makes Kangavites (kids multi) and their vit. E is soy derived. I also checked Natures Gate Vit. E oil (lotion) and it is indeed wheat germ based (that went right into the garbage can!!). And, California Baby Calendula Cream which contains vit. e...

    Thanks! This helps since I am sooo picky about all of these things - we only use "California Baby" hygene products on her (gluten-free) and she has her own toaster, colander, cutting board, etc. I no longer own a single grain of wheat flour in the house. She only eats cereal that is labeled "gluten free" I check all vitamins & supplements faithfully,...

    Hi Everyone & Happy Holidays! I am looking for any feed back since I am just beside myself . . . my 6 year old daughter has type 1 JD and celiac disease. She has been completely Gluten Free for 7 months (or so we thought). This is all we think about - I have read absolutely everything about celiac disease, I am meticulous about shopping and cooking...

    Hi! You all seem to have more knowledge and info than the docs. Please tell me your thoughts on this. I have had copious "D" for about 5-6 year. It happens at least 3-5 times a day, very unpleasant! I don't really have stomach pain beyond the D but definitely looks like malabsorption by the state my previous meal comes out (especially veggies) - sorry...

    Go to the Dr. ASAP! My daughter had a cold and wasn't bouncing back, drinking water constantly and peeing like a hundred times a day. We too did not want to be the hysterical parents and waited a few days - then suspecting a UTI we finally took her to the doc (after about 2 weeks) and within hours she was admitted to the hospital with a type 1 diabetes and...

    Thank you all for the feedback and support. It has been pretty rough and our son (who is our daughter's twin) is being tested next week for diabetes and celiac. We are hoping for mercy and that he was dealt a better genetic card than she was. The good news is that he is always there for her and looks out for her, makes sure her sugar numbers are good and...

    Hi! I am new to the board. my daughter who is 6 was diagnosed with Tye 1 diabetes in march 06 and screened for celiac. Although her ttg was a wopping 181 the docs. neglected to read the labs. She was tremendously ill with stomach aches, vomitting, etc. for 6 weeks until I asked for a celiac panel. They responded that one would have been done when she was...
