>>>Teh rules are you only get GF products on prescrition idf you have confirmed Dx of coeliac - however, some friendly GP's will Rx for our kids -0 they have to mark the script to say kid has Coeliac though - its a code number their computers usually print on the prescription.

Cheaper to make the bread or lose it altogether

Anyone get anything from the NHS that is gluten free? The bread in my

local HFS costs almost £5.00 for a small loaf!

Has anyone had luck convincing their child's doctors that they are G/C

intolerant? How?

Is there a list somewhere of NHS products GF/CF that we can avail of?

thanks
