Soy milk isn't dairy. There is also rice milk, almond milk and even coconut milk. The other thing I did want to mention is that sometimes people who can't eat gluten are also casein intolerant. That is different than "just" dairy intolerant. Dairy (or lactose) intolerant refers to one part of the dairy, casein refers to the milk protein in dairy. So...

Amy's brand makes many gluten free pizzas. Some are even dairy free. They make small ones that cost $4.99 at our stores here. Could you buy one of those and make it? I have made in in the morning, cut up and wrapped in tin foil and put in a thermos. It may not look pretty but they are good and certainly better than getting sick.

Hello. Do any of you or your children happen to get a red rash around the mouth (but not the actual lips; more of like a ring around the lips) and/or have earlobes or the whole outside ear that turns bright red after eating gluten? We think our son does when he has gluten (which is not intentional) but are also thinking it may be related to blue dye ...

Definitely! Migraines were one of my daughters main Celiac symptoms!

It just dawned on us that perhaps our George Foreman Grill is probably contaminated from all our gluten eating years? What do you think? thanks.

Sorry to be Debbie Downer here but just pulled our twin daughters out of school due to issues........I am homeschooling them now........

WOW Sounds like a "big episode" I had in the Spring, about 2 months before going gluten free. I had been standing for about an hour ironing, stopped, called my mom on the phone (as I was still standing) and all of a sudden I told her, OMG, I feel like I'm falling, I AM, and I gently fell to the floor on my left side all the while talking. I never ever...

First of all, you are NOT complaining! You have been in pain of different types this whole year. That just isn't good no matter how you look at it or what is happening to other people, should they be nice things or worse things. One thing I have learned (and I've had some really really bad years, this being one) is that what happens to other people truly...

OH, If your hospital has special trained social workers then I definitely would ask for their help! That is great!!!

Yes, we seem to do fine with the Rice and Corn Chex, but get sick from the flavored ones as well. All four of us (me and my kids).

Well, I certainly am NOT trying to disagree with the pp who suggested getting a social worker, but please be careful with that because one, they made "invade your territory and read too much into this" and two, betcha they will have no experience with gluten moods. Our five year old does the same thing. We know we are in trouble and storms a brewing...

Thank you so much for your feedback! Every year I call the doctors and since their bday is in November and often their thighs are still a mess and I just hear "oh, just give them some motrin and put some ice on it." I feel better knowing that my family and I are not the only ones thinking their may be another issue involved. I had one of my twins tested...

All this talk about shots made me think this would be a good place to ask this question: A little background: My twin daughters never got the flu vaccine until 2003 when they were 4 years old. EVERY singe year they get it (and we haven't yet because one, our doctor didn't get it and two, we may be dealing with an antibiotic allergy and one of them has...

After you get glutened (or glutenated as my 5 year old says when I look pregnant)? I am specifically talking about the upper stomach under the ribs big bloated when you are far along in pregnancy not the "gotta go now" lower abdomenal bloat....... thanks! Mine seems to last a really long time, like a week or more and I am trying to figure out if I...

Hey there just wanted to mention a quick thing: as explained in the book I mentioned, sometimes you may feel not better but that may not mean your new diet isn't working! Very impt to know and is in the book. I never knew that either but with an elimination diet there are various timelines for feeling better, worse, or the same. HTH
