Symptom Recognition

[vegiac980]

Hey! I'm Amanda

i seem to have some problems. I may or may not have a weak immune system, I thought i did, but then i was diagnosed with celiac so that is what the sickness could be. But I want to know if I'm screwing up ALL the time, or just getting sick

I have been sick 7 times in the last two months, and they are mostly tummy problems, with occasional cold/flu.

So is there a way I can tell the difference between my real sicknesses and celiac screw-ups?

also, i'm wondering if it is necessary to use different pans, i have the strainer and toaster, i just want to know about pots and pans.

Also Canadiens, what shampoo/conditioner do you use? And deoderent .

Thank you so much! This has been super hard and i've only had celiac 3 months and 3 weeks

As you get more used to the diet, you'll be able to figure out your gluten symptoms compared to symptoms of a regular illness.

Some people find that teflon pans can retain a little gluten. Pots and pans you can scrub really well with steel wool are fine to keep using.

You also need to be careful with wooden and soft plastic cutting boards, and wooden and plastic spoons and other utensils which retain gluten. Wash your hands often, and if you live with a gluten eater you must be obsessive about cleaning counter areas.

But if you are a celiac your immune system is not functioning the way it should, and that makes us more likely to pick up viruses that are going around too.
