Ski trip with Celiac son - preparation advice please
Thank you very much for the reply! As to the cheese sauce - I am not the cook at home, I'm very lucky that my husband takes on this monumental task. But how does one make a gluten-free cheese sauce? Isn't it always based on a mixture of flower and butter? I never achieved actually making it without burning it myself, but he makes it this way. Is it a question... -

Preliminary diagnoses via blood test in 2009; Is biopsy confirmation worth the contamination required?
Jula, welcome to the forum. What possible benefit would having an official diagnosis give you at this point in your life? You already have medical test evidence that you are a celiac (antibody tests and genetic testing) and the symptom improvement when you went off gluten confirms what the testing already pointed to. Why on earth would you risk damaging... -

I was diagnosed that year after the results of tissue transglutaminase testing combined with persistent anemia... -

Eczema or dermatitis herpetiformis
Welcome to the forum, @ellieb13! The third party commercial celiac test kits are reliable but suffer from the same shortcomings that the average physician ordered celiac testing does. Namely, the number and kinds of tests included is pretty limited, usually just one or two antibody tests as opposed to a complete panel. Some who do have celiac disease... -

Eczema or dermatitis herpetiformis
Hi, I've feel like I've hit a brick wall. I've had eczema as a child and have mostly grown out of it, with an occasional flare-up (once a year at most). However, this time around none of the usual tactics work. I use a soap substitute, use 100% cotton clothing, even changed my mattress. The topical steroid given by the doctor usually does the trick after...
