Thank you so much for your thoughts. I think I need to let waiters know I'm on a gluten-free diet. I didn't want to make a big deal out of it because I was with co-workers.
Ugh...this is hard and I don't like feeling socially "odd" and restricted because of this diet!
I'm avoiding wine for the next several months at least too...and I'll look for the organic wines if I go back to drinking it. I really appreciate your help!

My doctor put me on a gluten-free diet 2 weeks ago. Last night I ate out at a restaurant with co-workers and I had fish, veggies and other non-gluten foods. I also had wine (2 glasses - which is normal for me). I've been sick all day today. I don't think there is any food left in me. I felt nauseas, couldn't focus or concentrate and was so tired I left work early to come home and sleep. I really did my best to stay away from the gluten foods at dinner. Do you think I am experiencing cc or do you think it could be the wine? I know wine is gluten-free, but I read in the book "Dangerous Grains" that you should avoid alcohol when your gut is healing. Does anyone have any experience with this? I'm new to this and would love to read your thoughts. Thanks in advance!!
Still Getting Injured After 4 Years Of Being Gluten-free

I'm a runner too and I've had about 10 stress fractures (over the course of about 18 years). I was just diagnosed with gluten sensitivity and my doc told me not to run for at least a month while we try to get my vitamin D, calcium and other health issues under control. I'm on serious vitamin D supplements (50,000 IU 3 X week). My doc said I should have more energy when I get stabilized. I'd get your vitamin D, calcium (24 hr urine test) and N-Teleopeptide ratio checked out. The N-Teleopeptide test will tell you the rate in which your bone cells are turning over. Maybe you have other food sensitivities that are inhibiting vitamin D or calcium absorption.
