Hi all,
my son (5 years) was diagnosed last July. At the same time we learned that he was gluten intolerant.
We put him (and ourselves) immediately on a strict GF diet. He has been without insulin since mid August. That's more than 6 months by now... I know they call this the honeymoon period, but I can't shake the idea that maybe, if reacting in an early stage of diabetes, there is some chance of auto-healing? I have not been able to find any supporting scientific studies on this, but would like to hear if others have had a similar experience?
Thanks!
