Time... it took years for me, but I got there

Butter from the marketplace. They will undoubedtly have spread butter on bread and dipped the knife back in. Our butter is full of my boyfriend's crumbs so I have my own!

Fatigue was my only real symptom, I didn't sit up for 6 months after a bout of mono, I was so debilitated. It took about 3 months of gluten free to get back to anywhere near 'normal' and even now, a year after gluten free, I still sleep for ten hours every night and nap sometimes too! it does get better though, a baby step every day BG

Are you feeling well? If you are, I wouldn't worry about things like this, especially if you only noticed it on your days off - if you are feeling okay try not to stress. You cannot have absolute control over your environment and arguably having a few molecules of gluten here and there will help you if you ever want to eat out and there's a risk of CC>...

On Sunday I ate gluten-free bread that I took myself to the hotel, with cheese and onion at my dad's house which is not gluten-free but i used a fresh knife and put my toast on some new foil under the grille. Then we had steak, potatoes and salad and the only dressing I had were mayo and ketchup, which are both certified gluten free.

Hi all I've been gluten-free for almost a year. I reintroduced dairy successfully in about December 08 and I've been feeling pretty well lately. I suffered with quite bad chronic fatigue prior to giving up gluten. I went to a wedding on Saturday. I felt fine on Sunday but possibly didn't get enough sleep, although my body hasn't rebelled this much in...

I gave up caffeine when I gave up gluten in June 08. I tried to reintroduce it and every time I did I had basically panic attacks. It has a MAJOR effect on me!

Snickers just announced in the UK that they're not gluten free, they contain malt.

4 -5 months

I ate a slice of bread a day for four days and only experiences any symptoms on the fourth day. They were severe and lasted 6 weeks and I wish I had never done it (though at least I know now as I too tested negative). I think everyone has a level which they must reach before their body reacts.

Hi I thought the same. For me it took 8 days of eating gluten before everything came back in abudance and I abandoned the challenge... BG

Hi there Well today I am absolutely exhausted - bedridden, which is such a shame as I don't understand it. On a daily basis I eat, F bread for breakfast. Lunch I eat the night before's left overs, and dinner we usually have stir fries with rice, potatoes, pork and chorizo, lots of fresh veg... Quite healthy really. I gave up caffeine last June and...

When I first reintrodued dairy, too soon I think, I got cramps and the D. I've been on the same 'dose' of dairy for about 4 months now with no problems of that ilk hence why I'd be surprised if it suddenly started making me hungry these past few weeks. This morning am light headed even though just had gluten-free toast with nutella, a banana, a yoghurt...

I've booked myself in for a diabetes test. The ravenous-ness has got much worse, am eating near constantly. carbs wise i eat a lot of rice and gluten-free bread and corn pasta, could this be it? I have been on dairy since october with no problems so i'd be surprised if it was that?

Hi all Thanks for the help you've given me here in the past. Basically I am undiagnosed but due to a gluten challenge that I gave up after 4 days in November I am pretty certaintly Coeliac. I got chronic diarhoea and the chronic fatigue I used to suffer with came back in abundance and I ended up in bed for about 4 weeks. I thought I was over it...
