Welcome...now what does you diet consist of? And what is the reason for such a restrictive diet?  (If you have posted this previously, I appologize for the query) :rolleyes:...i.e. what boat are you in. B)

Me too!! You know it seems impossible but it can be done! I started about 2 or 3 mtgs ago. I tested out nuts and eggs and am ok with them. Here's the positive:

1) I went from 148 pds to 138 pds

2) my energy level went sky-high. I feel like I'm 20 yrs old again.

3) I've been eating really healthy so I feel more motivated to to play w my daughter and even exercise.

4) food tastes better. I'm not kidding. Last night I boiled chicken and had a plain baked potato. And I thought this was yummy! (Hey I liked Big Macs)

5) my tummy isn't ready to burst (ie no massive alien-like bloating).

6) my neurological symptoms are gone

So yeah it's a real pain in the butt and very inconvenient, but it's a lifestyle change I'm ok with.

Stay with it! You can do it!!

I'm also gluten, dairy, soy, egg, yeast, rice, and nut free (except for cashews, those I can have). Life is hard. : (  I was tested for additional food allergies after being diagnosed with gluten and dairy intolerances, and the bloodwork came back and said I had antibodies to the other foods listed. I basically eat meat, veggie & fruits. Breakfast is the hardest meal, I usually have a coconut milk smoothie with a little fruit and some stevia, and some meat leftover from previous night's dinner (this morning was grilled chicken).

 

I've been gluten and dairy free for 2.5 yrs, but only found out about the other foods 6 months ago.  It's not easy...

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
