Aaaahhhhh! Now He's Sick!

Here we are at a week out from getting his endoscopy done and the little guy is sick! Running a fever and complaining that his throat hurts...and his chest hurts and his head hurts and he puked two days ago but now I can't tell if it's because he's sick or if this is the Celiac's talking.

We only have a week and then we were going gluten free after the endoscopy. Will they still do it if he's sick? I'm not sure how they are with that....I know how they are with regular surgeries. Oy. I don't want to keep giving my little guy something that is so obviously making him feel bad. :( He asked me to give him Miralax yesterday because he knows it kind of helps. He's 6....how sad is that?

Anyway....I really hope they still do this. I am going to see if they'll take a quick look at him while I have his siblings in for their blood work. I don't think it's anything too serious but he has been running a fever for 2 days now.

 

He has his preop appointment on Friday....so I am hoping he is better by then.

      I believe I've seen them at Costco still in the shells (in the frozen seafood area), which might be a safe way to go.

      A dedicated rack is a great idea if everyone in the house understands and supports the idea, and just to clarify, I didn't recommend just wiping the rack down, but washing it well in soap and hot water.

      Thanks, I appreciate you getting back to me.  Sometimes the retailers don't have content info on products they sell and they have rewrapped them with no ingredients list. Guess I'll stick to prepackaged medalions with all the info.

      I find that I sometimes have symptoms due to cross-contact with foods that *might* be contaminated in the processing. 100% gluten-free certification is something I look for in every processed food I consume.

      I would not be comfortable with just wiping down the rack after a gluten-containing food was cooked on it. When I cook pizza in the oven, my gluten-free pizza goes on the top rack - nothing else is ever placed directly on that top rack, gluten or not. Contact with minute traces of gluten cause me symptoms within a few hours. If I heat a gluten-free roll in my toaster oven, I place it on a small bit of foil so that it does not directly contact the rack that *might* have traces of gluten on it.
