Feeling Better Than Yesterday

I broke down and charged a new air conditioner yesterday. I was too hot, and I'm just a wimp... I swear, the heat makes me a different person. We put it in our daughter's room and put all the fish tanks in there (otherwise we'd have fish soup!) so now we have one room nice and cool to sit in when necessary. Plus it's keeping the whole house a little cooler (95 inside 104 outside).

Sorry ~ this may not be the place to write about the heat... but it turns very physical for me. My intestines certainly are not fully healed yet (just started gluten-free 3 weeks ago) so I still have a lot of problems. My feet, for instance, are immobile because they are so swollen, my whole body is bloated actually... even my fingers. It's painful. Plus I've been constipated again and I've been getting that dizzy/disoriented feeling again even though I'm avoiding gluten. So I'm now wondering if it's just old toxic gluten working it's way out of my system... or if it's just a symptom of being too hot.

I've double checked everything I'm eating, and since most of it is whole foods that I cook (no grains, no sugar) I really honestly don't think I'm ingesting any hidden gluten.

I'm kind of bummed because I was feeling so good until this heat came and kicked my butt. I'm going to stay in my daughters room as much as possible, but I have no idea how long it will take for my feet and ankles to go back to normal, and for me to start feeling good again.

hey there. Im sorry to hear about the sympton. The heat can hurt especially with certain issues. Just so you know i just learned from a friend of mine who has Celiac disease that shampoos and conditioners can have an affect on people who are allergic to gluten. Check your body wash, soap, makeup and shampoo & conditioner. anything that you touch your body with. If you need help getting gluten free products, i work with AVON and i have a list of the products that are very very nicely priced that are GLUTEN FREE. here is my website...
