I Thought I'd Give An Update

[Guest DanceswithWolves]

Hello everyone!

It's been awhile since I posted something , so I just wanted to inform everyone that I have gained quite a bit of weight back. I am now up to roughly 140 pounds. My pants actually fit me again. I want to thank you all for your kind words and support when I needed it. I still have the occasional reflux but I have started to watch my intake of coffee, bread and chocolate to regulate my symptoms better.

In all honesty, I believe only about a handful of people on this site have true Celiac Disease. I was almost positive I had it...but stress is an amazing condition. I am still taking my meds and I hope to ween off of that next.

These are very stressful times we live in. I really started to pay more attention to that as well.

Anyway, I feel much better and I'm not worrying about what I eat so much.

I did some volunteer work down in Biloxi, MS and it was life-changing for me.

Take care everyone!

clarify what you mean by "only a handful of people have true Celiac Disease"

I would have to seriously disagree with that statement.

However, I'm glad you are feeling better. Did you have a dx of Celiac or what? Just curious. I'm half asleep and can't get my head to come up with the words I want to use.

I was wondering how you were making out. So glad that everything is working out and you're gaining weight! I wasn't going to say anything, but since Nini did, I also wondered why you said that about 'only a handful of us', too. While it's great that you found your answers, that dosen't mean that we're all 'barking up the wrong tree'!
