Well, its been a week and a half on the gluten free diet, and I'm nothing short of amazed. Corey is doing so much better. Granted, he's not anywhere near 100%, but he is able to get out of bed and function without taking morphine. Anything is an improvement from where we were. Hopefully he continues to improve.

Thanks to everyone who convinced us to do the diet before getting blood results. :)

I will try to keep in touch

Crystal,

Your news is so exciting!! This diet, although hard at times, is such a blessing. I am sure you are just thrilled at the progress he is making. He is lucky to have such a supportive and caring spouse.

Make sure you stay a part of the board--this and celiac.com's lists are the best way to keep updated on food products, recipes, and lists of ingredients. Keeping him 100% gluten free will truly be worth the effort. It IS hard, and frustrating, but the payoffs of being TRULY gluten free are so worth it.

Congratulations and I wish you and your husband much health and happiness.

      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.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
