Hi everyone.

I'm the one with Celiac Disease in the family, but my entire family is  
gluten-free...because, after all, I do all the cooking and it's easier  
for me to not have to worry about cross contamination.

My daughter is 3 and starting preschool. She has been gluten-free her  
whole life because it is easier. She has gotten gluten a few times and  
had a questionable reaction with changes in behavior...or maybe it was  
a coincidence. Maybe we were looking too closely for a reaction...like  
I said, a QUESTIONABLE reaction.

Should I allow her to go to school and just eat the snack that is  
provided? It will be twice a week....I don't want her to stand out  
with a "different" snack if I don't have to.

We are trying to get into Dr. Pietzak right now, but I'm kinda getting  
the run around because she doesn't have symptoms and labwork. But  
because she's gluten-free, there is NO lab work and no symptoms. We  
just want some advice on what to do...we need a little guidance.

Any opinions and thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Stephanie in CA
