Some of you who have been posting for some time may get tired of saying the same thing repeatedly. However, there are some like me who are slow learners. I don't know how many times "you" have said to watch how many processed products we eat in a day that are listed as gluten-free--less than 20ppm--there's a cumulative effect. Since I don't eat very many processed products, I didn't think that applied to me. But then it finally dawned on me that it's just as bad to eat four servings of one product as it is to eat one serving of four different products. I may really like those crackers, but eating a whole box in one day is not a good idea even if they are listed as gluten-free.

I am a slow learner too. A few weeks ago, I had a package of gluten free muffins, some cookies and a few donuts - all gluten free. I was sick as a dog.

I am swearing off anything in a box (again)

Yeah, I think sometimes there is a bad box here and there too. I ate box of gluten-free crackers over a couple days from a brand I usually tolerate and it got me. There was no other explanation for the trouble because everything else I had been eating was home-cooked from scratch.

I have definitely noticed differences in reactions to different boxes of the same thing. I am so sensitive that it feels like I'm playing Russian Roulette every time I open a new box.

Companies change processing facilities, lines, add new products, change suppliers etc. all the time, and they don't tell us first. How dare they! LOL

      Anyone Else Experiencing These Symptoms?

      By Mantooth · Posted

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊

      How to keep water down?

      By trents · Posted

      Prolonged dehydration can cause kidney damage. How long has this been going on? Are you have diarrhea also? That's what the dyclomine is for I think.
