every year, our neighborhood has the Christmas home walking tour (it's going to be beautiful here this weekend, so, should be good!)  and this year i am on the b.o.d. of the neighborhood organization.  NOW.  i don't mind selling tickets or walking around, but they have a hospitality house at the end of the tour and they have people making (delicious) Christmas cookies.  i was planning on being out of town, maybe, because our daughter is ready to give birth to our grandson - but, no, they scheduled her next week for a c-section.  now i will be home (and can't hide, because these people are all my neighbors lolz) so i am going to end up doing some thing to help with the tour.  also, there is a dinner (potluck, so, no eating anything there) that i'm expected to attend.  ok, ok, ok, i'm ok.  but i can't stop thinking about the dad gum cookie house!!!!  

 

I WANT COOKIES.  I WANT TO NOT MAKE COOKIES.  I WANT TO EAT COOKIES.  I WANT TO TRY EVERY KIND OF COOKIE WITHOUT FINGERPRINTING EVERY SINGLE ONE.  AUGGGHHHHHH!!!   

 

i seriously can't believe i'm losing it over cookies.  i can just see them, all pretty and nutty and completely poisonous...........   :angry:

LOL!  :lol:  :D   Ooooh! I like you!

 

Cookies cookies everywhere and nary a crumb to eat. :(  Bring yourself a thermos of Balieys with a bit of flavoured coffee or extra creamy hot chocolate - it might make you feel better, and if you drink enough you won't care anyways.  :)

Excellent suggestion!

Or stand around the cookie table, and look at people like they are really stupid and ask " you still eat this s$#&?"

While sipping on the Baileys and munching a delicious gluten-free cookie you brought with you.

      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      Am I nuts?

      By GlorietaKaro · Posted

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
