My daughter has it and I have tried to find research that indicates anything regarding the impact of a gluten free diet. Please keep us posted on how it goes. She is only 7 so I am willing to try, but I want to know others findings…

Darlene,
We were away on vacation when I read this on my phone and I am not sure my reply posted. Sorry for the delay.
Thank you for the kind reply. I am feeling a bit better nearly a month after Kaylee was diagnosed. The good news is that when we…

Hello Jacki,

Jacki replied to Molly Rose Anderson's discussion 'Self Injury'
This is a long shot, but have you tried this place? They list that they have a sliding scale, which means you pay what you can afford. When I worked in an agency, we had people paying as low as $1 a session. Again, you have to want the change. Take…
Jacki replied to Molly Rose Anderson's discussion 'Self Injury'

Jacki replied to Jen Haskins's discussion 'Guttate Psoriasis'
Though I was not given a name of the type of psoriasis my daughter has, they also believe that she got it after an upper respiratory infection. Most likely strep in the winter of 2009. She was just diagnosed yestersday, so I have nothing medication…
Jacki replied to Jacki's discussion 'Feeling Overwhelmed'
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your post made me feel so much better. Family right now is thinking this is no big deal, and the topical creams will cause an overnight cure. Wouldn't that be great? We have been through many, many health issues…
