I want to have people who understand me and know what I am going throuhg and understand what I am feeling. I think that all celic kids can help me. I apologise for any of my weird replies that you might get from me. I still am trying to figure out how to work this thing. Feel free to e-mail me with any tips. I have a lot of questions.

LOL...I felt that way when I first came here and the "teenagers only" section was comprised of 17-19 year olds with the occasional 16 yr. old.

I was 13! excuse me!

Jkjk I really know how you feel, when I first came to the board I was like the only kid on it and I was like 11-12 I think, I'm not sure. I'm glad more teenagers came to the boards!

Guest Doct.Giggles

Ha! You think your'e the youngest, I'm only eleven! :) NOTE: This is not Bette, this is her daughter. Soon I'll get my own account.

DragonQueen Explorer

Now I have my own account.

DragonQueen Explorer

I wonder if there is anyone else younger than me. :huh:

MySuicidalTurtle Enthusiast

I know of children younger than you but they don't usually post here.

Carriefaith Enthusiast

I saw in one post that someone was 7... I had to look at it twice. Maybe it was a typo. I think it was in the recent thread where someone asked for help with a survey for medical school or something

DragonQueen Explorer

7...Wow!

I think that might have been the child's mother posting for the child...

I am not a teen, but I am checking in because I was not sure my 11 year old could post here. I do see some of you are not yet teens. My daughter does not have ANYONE in her life who is a celiac and I think this would benefit her. However, I do not want to break any of the rules of the forum by letting her post in this section if she is not supposed to. Is there a section for younger children that I am missing? Tommorrow is her last day of fifth grade. Does anything come up here that would not be age-appropriate? Thanks!

Bette Explorer

I allowed my daughter to post here. I saw nothing in the membership rules about age

New Board Guidelines/Rules

Welcome to Celiac.com's new message board/forum! If you were already registered to use our site's old board you will need to re-register here in order to be able to make posts. Our new board uses completely new technology which greatly surpasses our old board, and we hope that you make full use of its new features, including the ability to chat directly with individual board users.

Also note that message board/forum registration is not the same as registering at Celiac.com. You must register here on the board page in order to use the boards.

Note that if your browser or firewall is set to not accept all cookies you may not be able to post on the boards.

Below are the basic rules of the board. Generally speaking users who break these rules will get two warnings, and if there is a third rule violation they will be banned from the boards. Serious board violations can result in an immediate ban. The rules are as follows:

* Do not be abusive or otherwise out of line towards other board members. Show respect for each board member, no matter what you think of their post(s). This is not a place to quarrel.

* Do not promote your own business, Web site or products.

* Do not spam the boards (i.e., post the same thing in multiple topics or areas of the board to bring more attention to your post).

She was nervous about her biopsy procedure and felt very comforted by everybodies kind words. I do not know what would be age appropiate in dealing with a disease called celiac, it spans all ages, and message boards/support groups can help children, teens, adults to deal with issues surrounding it. If somebody has an issue with an 11 year old asking questions or desiring support here, it should not be called an open forum. An alternative is to have a section for the preteens, they need support too.

I don't see any reason why she couldn't post :D

Everyone of all ages are welcome here.

Oh, of course she can post. We were just surprised (positively) that someone of such a young age would taken such an active interest in this. :)

It would be cool not to be among the youngest here :lol:;)

MySuicidalTurtle Enthusiast

I think anyone should post, if they want to. I have told my 18 year old brother he should but he hasn't any intrest.

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.
    • Celiacsugh
      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone! 
    • Celiacsugh
      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms. 
    • Raquel2021
      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.
    • trents
      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
