People Sick Of Hearing About It

My mom is so sick of the word thyroid. She flips out, and I mean flips out anytime I say anything about it. It makes me feel unheard and lonely. It is depressing. It makes me really mad that she won't let me talk about it.

I see the same thing with people who are going gluten free. Their spouses are sick of hearing about it. Oh well, they need to get over it.

I guess people that haven't had to go through this stuff just don't get how life altering and consuming it can be when you're looking for answers?

When you need support..come here. You're among friends!

Post here. We'll talk about gluten and thyroid all day long since all our friends and family are sick of hearing about it too. B)

I've had two people get sick of hearing gluten free from me. One I worked with asked me to never talk about it in our classroom again! She said I needed to think of other things. I was only 6 months gluten-free at the time and finding my way still. It does hurt. So hugs, I understand!!! I love coming here because I feel "normal" with being gluten-free, soy free and having allergies, everyone understands. I was able to go to a gluten-free expo in April and it was soooo nice talking to other Celiacs! Hang in there!

      I’m so confused…

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail, I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however, the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I...

      Being a burden to family/friends

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another. If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on. They're just not ready to learn that lesson...

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start...

      Recipe Apps?

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances. It's a web site but there's also an app.

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail,  I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however,  the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I have an appointment with the consultant early April probably followed by another endoscopy, as far as I’m aware I have not been tested for vitamin B and will definitely discuss it with the doctor on my next visit.
