      I’m curious where you’ve ended up with this journey? I’ve just started HRT for perimenopause, and have been having dermatitis herpetiformis symptoms, and even developed what seems to be a small patch of psoriasis (which I’ve not previously had)… basic googling has told me HRT can flare up some autoimmune diseases, including lupus and psoriasis, but dermatitis herpetiformis is not specifically mentioned.    so, I’m curious where you’ve ended up

      Welcome to the forum, @Beagirl! What you are feeling is what we have all felt to one degree or another and we typically feel it more intensely when we already have a laundry list of health issues to work around. It's often the result of a sense of loss . . . of having to say goodbye to some good foods that we enjoy that may have been part of a shrinking list of things that are left that we still found pleasure in. And also for many it represents a social loss . . . not being able to accept dinner invitations from family and friends because you are unsure if they know how to cook gluten free . . . not being able to go out to just any restaurant with family and friends because their menu doesn't have gluten free offerings and if it it does, are they careful with regard to cross contamination issues?

      Recently diagnosed with a problem with no cure is annoying and upsetting. Why does this happen? I have enough health problems to deal with and now this. I can live with reading labels and giving up things at I'm 68 years old. I can cook with gluten free everything and not give up good healthy food, look for gluten free restaurants, do all I'm told to do to manage the problem. So I don't know why I'm complaining since it is manageable.

      Amy's has been my go-to  for gluten-free meals for years. Her cooks need to have feedback--for example, the two enchiladas with authentic Mexican sauce, very tasty. The 1 enchilada w span rice &beans is a disappointment ...the enchilada is terrible with its collection of corn &green peppers instead of cheese and sauce. Not tasty at all.

      You also mentioned eating 10g of gluten for 2 weeks are longer do you think less then 6 weeks is ok? I heard 2 weeks gives false positives what about 4  weeks 10g whole wheat a day? I read 4 slices whole wheat equals to 10g gluten. Would eating 4 slices whole wheat bread a day along with elimination of other gluten suffice? Also do you recommend taking a multivitamin to play it safe or when I take the test ask for full vtamin blood test to see all vitamin levels and whatever im low in take that vitamin? Thanks
