Today was ok. Some mild stomach pains around lunch time, nothing major. Feel like I have some trapped gas right now though, it's kind of driving me nuts.

The thing that really blew my mind was. From the time I was 19 I would always have morning D. Then probably withing the past 2 years, I started getting C with flat stools, occasionally normal ones. I never was constipated in my life. Like I said i was scope from top and bottom when I was 20 and all they found was GERD and a Hiatal Hernia. I just have so many other odd symptoms, the two I want to disappear besides the GI issues are my brain fog and I get skin boils that drive me nuts. Also recently my lips have been dried out.

A friend of mine's daughter developed severe chapped lips that would not go away among other gi symptoms. They did all the testing and she came back positive for gluten intolerance. After being on the diet for a while all symptoms disappeared! Her daughter is grade school age. Her teacher commented on how much more alert she had become in class after the diet, which implies that gluten was affecting her concentraction and attention span. I am about to begin the diet because I have been dealing with so many problems the last 15 months, and it's just been a really rough ride for me. I'm hoping this is my long awaited answer. Good Luck to you!

Yep, so like a moron I decided to eat out for lunch and dinner yesterday. Got a salad for lunch which seemed harmless except for some processed turkey lunch meat, which I could have sworn was advertised as Boar's head. As soon as I got home from work I had to head to the bathroom 3 times.

Went to a steakhouse for dinner as well which said that the ribs were gluten free so I got them and a baked potato and coleslaw. Freakin stomach sounded like it was at war with itself all night.

Peer pressure sucks.

Note to self: No eating out until you get better at this.
