I ran across this in the Atlanta Journal & Constitution and thought I would share. Some of the comments are very entertaining. I'm glad to know that it's not just us.

My Sister wont participate in her office's monthly potluck. She says it is because she has seen how some of those women leave the bathroom. It aint pretty. She just always brings her own food and says she is on a diet. :P

Oh my gosh, that was hilarious.

I have NEVER liked potlucks. It just seems like food poisoning is lurking under every spoon...

Yeah I know. I'm glad that I have a legitimate excuse for not partaking.

I tried to participate in a Holiday Potluck pre-gluten-free. I made one of my famous pies, and was kind of excited by the prospect. I showed up early to help out and ended up being bossed around endlessly by the woman in charge. At one point someone was bringing over a large crock pot, and as I started to step out of the way she decided I wasn't moving fast enough and *pushed* me out of the way, hard. I couldn't believe anyone would do that to anyone else. I don't think I've been shoved like that since I was on a playground in middle school. I'm still appalled. Needless to say, I left and then the next year I was diagnosed Celiac and just said I couldn't.

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
