Odd. I know it seems like alot of work, but a diary would probably be your friend.

Or here's a thought... maybe toxins are leaving her body b/c of the diet change --and they are exiting through her hands and feet. I think I read somewhere that your feet were where toxins exit.

Inside her mouth is fine.

Yes I have started a diary. The tummy aches seem to have increased along with the itchiness as we have transitioned to whole grain/whole wheat. I am trying to keep her off of that for a bit.

Poor kid....

Dace, I am sorry to hear about your daughter. Poor thing.

Ok just a couple things we are dealing with right now.

My sil has been diagnosed with Celiacs disease. Wheat gluten allergy. Sooooo

DD 6yo who is always covered in white eczema is going in for allergy testing. She also gets tummy aches from white bread.

Ds 9 yo who is not only rash ed and white spotted has a major problem with itchy feet. So he will go in as well.

Last month I was making home made wheat bread for the family. Some even with home ground flour. My Dh has issues with the yeast. Caused his Gout to act up.

If it's not one thing it's another.

WifeZilla... the chicken egg allergy worries me. I wonder if that could be a problem for my kids? I guess it would be good reason to get ducks. :thumbsup

I dom't think that we have celiac in the family although we did have my 16 ye old tested a few years ago as she seemed to have some of the symptoms. She was neg....she and DH have some unduagnosed food sesitivities, so at least that
much is hereditary.

Testing for Celiac is a simple blood test, but she must still be eating wheat when the test is done.

Have you tried giving some benydral, just to see if it causes the symptoms to disappear?
