C – Consistent and continuous care by a multidisciplinary medical team. Since CD patients are constantly at risk of many medical conditions, their cases must be closely monitored. The possible complications can be varied which is why there is a need for the primary care to be undertaken by a team of experts. There are many clinics and hospitals in the U.S, which offer this kind of care under a single roof.
A diagnosis of celiac disease in children is nothing to be happy about, but it can be taken with heave of sigh knowing that it is manageable. Let the child understand the disease and its treatment, but without making him/her feel that he/she is in any way ‘unusual’. Let the child understand the significance of diversity and how being different makes each person special.
