Flash back to a year ago sitting in my dr.s office saying "give up wheat???" I couldn't beleive he didn't want to run gallbladders tests. How can you live without wheat AND dairy?? :blink:

Well you can, and I'm doing it very nicely. Yes - there's been some panic attacks, pitty partys (darn Olive Garden commercials)... but when I look back at where I was a year ago. I feel so much better, I've lost over 50 lbs, I have so much more confidence.

I couldn't have done it with out you guys. I've learned so much from each of you. It could have been a very long year... now I can only wait to see what I can look back on next year.

Awesome! I love reading these kinds of posts!!!! Make sure you give yourself a HUGE pat on the back and run to the nearest Outback Steakhouse and have yourself a "Thunder from Down Under" to celebrate!

Hugs.

StrongerToday - congratulations! That is wonderful for you. Great job sticking with it! I don't know how this is but statistics say that only 30-40% of people who are told to go gluten free for medical reasons actually do it without purposefully cheating. So you should give yourself a huge pat on the back and have a lovely gluten free treat!

Jerseyangle - sorry I missed your anniversary in June - congrats to you too, lady!

      New labs are now very elevated

      Hello, I was very stick, with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel. Has anyone ever had such a dramatic change? What are the odds this is true celiac I am going to have an endoscopy, but it’s expensive and I just feel like why can’t the labs be enough?...

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
