My ds is allergic to milk, eggs nuts and wheat. He also doesn't tolerate alot of soya. I was originally told by the consultant that we would be able to get basic foods on prescription, like bread, bread mixes, pasta, flour etc.

Since then, our gp & dietician have said that he can only get food on prescription if he is a diagnosed coeliac...which he isn't (thankfully :) )

So who is right?? We don't have alot of money and buying special bread, rice milk and biscuits (!) is expensive. I actually asked for my family to buy him biscuits from the trufree range for easter Blush
