    Unfortunately, perhaps, I was a full-time single mother, when i started getting symptoms. this enabled me to stay on benefits, as my symptoms worsenened to the point where I really wasn't up to working...and beyond. Thus I was able to ignore the symptoms and hope they'd go away, until (under pressure to get work, as my son was practically grown-up, but living...

    PS @ Evangeline: No it wasn't. it was in my post directly above yours. But, then, that might still have been waiting for moderation, when you posted

    @ evangeline oops , sorry. I just realised, "The British and totally broke" comment was attached to the same question on a different forum. You had no way of knowing

    Hmm. I don't want to repeat the same mistake I made with gluten (eliminated it and then asked for a test) Is there a test for soya allergy? and does anybody know is this available on the British NHS? (I am totally broke)

    Hi, you may have sen my first post, where I blamed a bunch of recent "gluten reactions" on contaminated rice noodles, and the fact that I'm clumsy and spilled them all over the kitchen. Much cleaning-up later, I've just had my 8th "gluten reaction". The last one followed after eating nothing but rice cakes spead with Pure Soya Spread. I've just realised...

    Ya gotta laugh, don't you? I'm sure anyobody with an atom of intelligence is gonna conlude that this Amish company is every bit as real as his alter-ego, Mr Gleason and the heart Attack, cancer and flu that stopped him coming to the door in person. If those reports are even slightly accurate, there's no question at all that the man committed fraud...

    Yes , I was sick for a good few years. And it was during those years when i was getting sicker and sicker, but not connecting it with gluten, that my teeth started falling to bits. I've been wondering if there;s a connection, but there doesn't seem like anything bar a sprinking of anecdotal evidence to suggest there is. That's not to say that I'm knocking...

    It was my doctor who sent the referral by mail *sigh*. Well, at least i've got a referral to see a neurologist on its way (and a kind friend to hold my hand while i open my mail) which turns out to syurprisingly good news! STOP PRESS One of you wonderful forum members , just sent me this link: Open Original Shared Link It's all about Gluten...

    Thank you so much!

    I read the page you linked to and I am sure that must be my problem!(well, one of them), I even talked to the doctor about the tremors today!(another new symptom. And, yes, I, too was thinking that I must have MS) How fortunate that I have been referred to a neurologist, now.

    Thank you both for the sympathetic responses. nushroom- i actually found myself a mental health advocate, at the back end of last year, but, after a bit of to-ing-and-froing he said there was only so much he could do without a referral to an appropriate body from my doctor (one thing he wanted to do was to get me some direct help with opening my mail...

    I don't know if this will help you, but since the featured neurologist is from England, wanted to forward this link. Good luck!

    Excuse the long rant, people. I rather hoped that my first post here would be a cheery intoduction. But, heck, well i hope you guys can appreciate my feelings at this juncture (saw my Doc today). I'm English, by the way. And the NHS sucks, but you other Brits know that,already, don't you? I started the gluten free diet about 4 years ago, when I started...
