    It took me approximately 9 months of going gluten free before all my issues cleared up. I have been educating my 3 adult children for about 5 years. They have almost completely healed during those 9 months. My condition was severe. I went on disability and remained on disability for about 1 year and hope to return to college to retrain for the work...

    I think it would be cool to have a gluten-free establishment.

    Other intolerances/sensitivities are probably rearing their ugly head.....after a year of trial and error I discovered I was GI, THEN I diagnosed myself with Oral Allergy Syndrome before allergist confirmed it. I'm allergic to at least 77 items to varing degrees. The primary are dairy, wheat, raw vegatables and fruit, as well as nuts and tree nuts. Extremely...

    I finally booked an appointment with an allergist after I initiated an eliminations diet 5 years ago. The list of allergens was growing. I was tired of the restriction,frustrated and desperate for answers. I gave him a list of suspected allergens, and he added a few that I suspected. The test was positive for all of them. Self diagnosed as gluten...

    I had to give up cat sitting for a friend because the cat was making me sick whenever she licked me. It was even harder to leave a relationship because of the gluttening from kissing. As much as we love our SO they can make us deathly sick. He didn't wash his hands or brush his teeth before establishing contact. I was sick for 6 weeks after. He met...

    I started seeing a doctor, when I was about 10 years old because I would get an occasional irregular heart beat. He said it was a heart murmur and that I would grow out of it. I went to another doctor because I wasn't convinced it would go away. Also, I complained of migraines and constipation. The doctor prescribed aspirin and laxatives. For...

    I shopped for a doctor who would listen to my concerns and understood celiac disease/gluten intolerance. Now, I plan to return to a specialist I met 17 years ago after my thyroid stopped functioning. I self diagnosed my condition of food sensitivities, then I went to a Naturopath to confirm my diagnoses. I returned to my GP to order blood tests, then...

    I went for allergy testing on Jan 20th. Glutened a few days before appointment, and I prepared a casserole of suspected allergen ( items I haven't consumed for sometime). Tested positive for 30 allergens. I began an elimination diet in 2005, by fasting for several days then introducing one food at a time. Had no idea this was considered an elimination...

    Be careful with items that say traces of such and such. Especially, if you may/maynot be allergic to it. I am allergic to items that never bothered me before. For several months I thought I was just getting gluttened although I was being ultra cautious. Then, a light bulb went off....I must be allergic to something. After eating strawberries, nuts...

    Boy.....where to begin. Started dating new guy 2006. I had 1st blackout in my life on our first date. Fortunately, my friend joined us that eve. He told bf that it isn't me. I don't usually talk like that. I don't remember what I said, but the look on bf face said it all. He finally left me last year, after an on again off again relationship. ...

    I've had gluten intolerance all of my life. Whenever I started consuming too much carbs I would get the crazies/ADHD. The digestive tract converts it into an opiate/morphine type substance. This worsened as I go older. 2009 was milestone for me because I decided to kick the carb addiction. I wondered if I should check myself into the psych ward....

    The panic attacks I've experienced were related to allergic reaction to chemicals, and certain food. Daily yoga sequences helped me overcome the ADHD/OCD and addictive behavior. There is a sequence to help reduce the severity of brain fog. Since I am a spiritual person, my yoga practice nourishes my body, mind and spirit. Once the panic attacks and...

    I followed an elimination diet to determine which items were allergens. Once I eliminated those items all my symptoms cleared up. I occasionally become glutened even with the best intentions. Those flares are unbearable. As my digestive system started healing the reactions to an accidental gluttening decreased. It did start to get better. Hopefully...
