I also have Hashimoto's and am in the early stages of Rheumatoid Arthritis - all related. I follow Dr.…"

Type 1, Hashimotos, and now Celiac -
Hello there, I am just looking for some support with all of the above. My daughter who is now 10 was just diagnosed with Celiac via endoscopic biopsy after her Iga was at 48. We have been dealing with T1 since 11/2010 and the thyroid is currently holding without medication however she does have the antibodies, they are just monitoring her at this point. I guess that I am just looking for support as we now tackle this life of going gluten free. Does anyone have any suggestions as to making this…See More

Well, since Celiac Disease (Gluten Allergy) is such a prevelant disease with diabetes, I figured we needed to have a group for it. Let this be a group for questions and suggestions.See More

Mikki's Mama replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"Have to agree...my daughter is 4, Dx since she was 2 and it's been recommended that she has protein at night to keep her from going low and I have heard it's supposed to help with the spikes. I would have recommend a few crackers with some…"
Elizabeth replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"No protein? That's... kinda weird, if the goal is to avoid spikes. Are you sure that's what he/she meant? Because my son's endo says exactly the opposite -- protein, plus a very small amount of carb. PB and celery, cheese &…"
"I am also surprised your doctor said no protein. My whole family is Type 1 diabetic (myself, my 10 year old son for the last year, my older brother and dad) and I can tell you that protein snacks are encouraged by our doctors and dietician. We are…"
Jacob's mom replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"we also make sure we include some fat and protein at bedtime snack especially if he has been particularly active, our usual is lower fat nacho chips and a cheese stick, icecream ( moderate fat), or crakers and cheese my son is turning…"
T1Naomi'sMommy replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"I'm on board with questioning the no protein at snack as our endo has always said to make sure my daughter does have protein in her snack especially the one before bed. Like the others have mentioned we also often have a spoonful of PB to go…"
Jerodsmom replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"I am surprised at the no protein. We always try do do a complex carb and then every night at bedtime my son has a spoonful of peanut butter or sun butter. I read one time from a girl that has been diabetic for 25 years that she does a spoonful of…"
Tracy Greene Mintz replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"I, too, find that odd about the no protein. Usually a snack with protein helps you prevent the spikes. In any case, my daughter does milk at night or milk with chocolate ovaltine. My friend feeds her son Nature Valley Oats & Honey granola bars…"
daneenm replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"Really, no protein? Why is that? At any rate we use the following for nighttime snacks...
Ice cream
Chocolate
Milk
Brownie bites
They all keep my son fairly even through the night."
