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

"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 &…"

Jodil replied to Dawn's discussion 'Bedtime Snacks' in the group parents of kids with Type 1
"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…"

Alissa 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…"
