I really enjoyed reading this thread.........I read it twice because I was amazed, I know it was meant as irony and it is somewhat sad.......But it was nice to find out that I wasn't alone and that many others had the same twisted experience as I did

I hate going anywhere to eat.......food is the enemy.......friends say hey lets get together for dinner......sorry I can't make it is my response.......I'm over the top embarrassed.......If we go out to eat as I scan the menu my husband ask the waiter do you have a gluten free menu.......as I shrink into my chair........I thinking of becoming a shut in just...

Hi Leslie, Not completely healed but getting better......The pain in my abdomen has gone away and some of vomiting and diarrhea has gone away as well I have had a hard time getting all the gluten out of my diet but I am making progress........Are feeling better?? Do you still use the pain meds? It is very possible that pain meds cause damage to your stomach...

OMG! really?? Cosmetics??

Percocet (sp) sends me into violent fits of vomiting..........Vicodin seems to work for me Ok no adverse reaction at all

OK so the Dr says we finally figured out the problem "celiacs disease"......Ok so what's that?? eliminate all gluten from your diet she says.........Really?? I was so happy, I mean how hard can that be right?? turns out "not" so easy after all.........If there is anyone out there who can point me in the direction of the coping with celiacs for dummys book...
