I cant tolerate oatmeal very well either. Cooked in things is OK but alone is tough. Make sure if it's instant stuff that there's no additives - they love to add dry milk to everything these days - which could trigger attacks.

Angela - have you tried the regular oatmeal (not instant and not individually pkgd) made w/water?? If that bothers you, I would just stay away from it. WHat about cream of wheat or cream of rice? Have you tried them?

Angela - it must be awful to have such narrow-minded parents! And, your mom's a nurse, you say? I wonder if she treats her patients at the hospital the same way as she treats you? I just can't imagine not listening to what your child is telling you about his/her physical condition and not trying to help them.

So sorry you can't talk her/them into understanding your situation. Wish I could do something to help.

(late thought: did you check all the cupboards for plain oatmeal or cream of wheat? sometimes they stash stuff like that in the back of other things if they're not used very often. Next time you're home alone, check it out!
