I can't stand how much an allergy can ruin your life! My friends came to visit me for a week, And I felt like I limited everything for them because I can't eat anything && I'm always in so much pain. I can't concentrate on anything because I just want to lay in bed and cry! As if that wasn't bad enough my boyfriend's mom now hates me because I can't eat most of what she cooks! I have explained what I can't eat so many times I feel like my head will explode if i try again. She even went as far as to call me a little princess because i'm so "picky"! I just want to feel like a normal person for a change!!!

She sounds very insecure! Sorry you have to deal with that...good thing is, he's not your husband...if you know what I mean.

Ugh! As if it's not bad enough to learn a new lifestyle, you have to deal with stubborn people. I am sorry to hear about your boyfriend's mom. Maybe loan her a book. I gave my mom a good one: Healthier Without Wheat. I don't know who wrote it, but it had alot of good information. Not diet and recipes, but information about gluten and what it does to our bodies. Maybe start inviting her over to your house for dinner more often, offer to get together with her and teach her how to cook/bake gluten free style. You could make it a 'girls night out' thing. I don't know - may sound silly, but if you tell her you are learning right along with her she may understand. She is probably just as frustrated. You heard the saying, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks"? Well, you can, it just takes more training! ;)

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By Kmd2024 · Posted

      Has anyone ever negative blood work except for the DPG-IGA? Mine was 42 (reference range negative is >20. The TTG iga was negative. I have always suffered from bad gas issues and lately have been having bouts of diarrhea and constipation. I also have a bumpy rash that comes and goes below both elbows. i have an endoscopy scheduled in May but I was just wondering if anyone else had bloodwork like this and what was the end result?

      Welcome to he forum community, @DjinnDjab! You wrote: "i just found out i may have celiac. so needless to say i no longer have friends or relationships." Are you saying that the need to eat gluten free has resulted in losing all your friends and your entire social life?

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By DjinnDjab · Posted

      i am a 37 yo male and this describes me perfectly. on a scale of 1-10, i am at 8. 9. 10, 11 for 8-12 hours a day, 6-7 days a week. this has been going on for about 5 years and i just found out i may have celiac. so needless to say i no longer have friends or relationships so i spend a lot of time with myself. and uhhh what really sucks is uhh, sorry to say, "enjoying myself" is a trigger for this pain. i can be fine all day until i take 5 mins to "myself" and then its all downhill from there. this has robbed me of every.single.thing in my once colorful life.

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.
