  1. I guess I am lucky. I have a husband that is fully on board with the gluten free eating. All our dinners are gluten free. We do have gluten bread for sandwiches for lunches for the gluten eaters in the house but I am not expected to touch it. I am going out of town this weekend and told my DH that he could make what ever he wants for the family when I...
  2. You are still healing. Some foods may not digest so well until your small intestine is working properly. I have been gluten free for 7 months. I have problems with pork, apricots and milk. I do not eat or drink too much of these because I get a stomach ache.
  3. My Doc did it with just diet alone and my life is so much more positive now that I will never go back to eating gluten. I feel no reason to find out through testing.

    ARCHIVED Dyslexia?

    Here are some quotes form famous dyslexics and dealing with thier dyslexia. I wonder where this world would be without them? (More quotes Open Original Shared Link I was, on the whole, considerably discouraged by my school days. It was not pleasant to feel oneself so completely outclassed and left behind at the beginning of the race. --Winston Churchill...

    ARCHIVED Dyslexia?

    I am dyslexic and I can tell you this is not dyslexia. You would not be forgetting numbers you would be getting them out of sequence. So if your room was 369, you may remember it as 396. Spelling would not be great. Dyslexics depend on memory. Erin Brockovich has dyslexia she depended on her memory so she would not have to depend on writing about all those...
  6. I came off Lexapro last June. I do not need to take it anymore since I stopped eating gluten. I still have some sleep problems, sometimes my brain will not turn off.
  7. Yeah JerryK! I have gone 7 months without gluten. At first it was hard. At some restaurants I wanted to cry. I feel soo much better now being gluten free is very easy. It just became a matter of retraining my shopping habits. My husband is a big help. All dinners at home are completely gluten free, with no complaints. His life easier now that I feel...
  8. I find exercise and meditation helps me. It lifts my spirits.
  9. What you are feeling is not a placebo effect. The fog is very real. When I came out of it I became very angry with people who seemed to depend on me being in a fog all the time.
  10. No test, just a lot of symptoms. I have been checked for just about everything else. All symptoms went away when I quit eating gluten. I have been able to go back to college after having to quit after 9 years.
  11. Thanks for the replies. My struggle right now is convincing family members that have the same symptoms I have to stop eating gluten. Depression, fatigue, mood swings, food allergies and IBS run ramped through my family. I have an aunt who says she cannot eat sandwiches every day because she feels awful if she does. We all also have a problem with pork,...
  12. I have been gluten free for about 7 months and have lost 35 lbs. I believe it is a combo of things; I am not hungry all the time, I am not fatigued and not feeling panic and anxiety. I feel soo much better that I am more active and I am eating at home more often. My life has improved 100% since I have gone gluten free; because of this I find it very...
  13. HI, I am new here and have a question. I was told by a doctor years ago to stop eating gluten, so I cut back on gluten and my "arthritis" went away. I went many years just cutting back. Then I was seeing a psychotherapist for anxiety and panic attacks. I told her about my gluten allergy, she said to get off of it completely. I did not know that it was causing...
