[Wow please don't get frustrated with me as I ask some more detailed questions. This is so complicated. You have already given me way more then the doc did. So............. My daughter took the RAST test because she has had chronic acne. Went on Accutane and it helped but it began to have some serious side effects so we took her off it. This was a year...

All of this is pretty darn overwhelming, I am so thankful all of you are here :-) The RAST test only testing for wheat I think in regards to gluten. So am I mistaking when I say she has a gluten sensitivity since the paperwork came back and it said wheat?

I am thinking of joining weight watchers, is anyone part of this group and if so does it work with a gluten-free diet? Judy

Is there a difference between a whet allergy and a gluten allergy? My daughter just found out she has an allergy to wheat but not sure if it all gluten food. We had the RABST food test done. She has bad acne and we had her tested because we thought this might be the reason. Interested in your thoughts? Thanks

Hi, Does anyone know of a diet plan for gluten free eating? I really like to have a site or book I can follow in regards to how many calories I can eat. I have gained weight since going gluten-free and would love to find a site that will actually spell it all out for me, Thanks

Hello, I am sorry to bog down this site with yet another story of negative blood tests. I am a 46 yr old who has always had stomach issues. Bloaty, gassy, alternating constipation/DH. I went gluten free for about 3 months and felt better. In the meantime my husband had eczema that cleared up after going on the diet with me. He did not have any stomach issues...

It is so frustrating isn't it? Do you ever think it is something else and that you are barking up the wrong tree? I am trying to stay positive but sometimes I want to give in. I know I feel better on the diet but yet when I have bouts of constipation and rumbles still I go crazy. It isn't controlling my life like before but I guess I just was hopeful it would...

How long have you been gluten-free? I am trying not to get frustrated but I am :-( I have been doing this for a month and felt some relief for sure but I keep waiting for that burst of energy and non constipated/bloaty days. I never got officially tested because I went gluten-free before (had I seen this board first I would not have made that dingy move)...

That is annoying!!! Mine rarely hurts, it has at times though but that was mostly pro to gluten-free Diet. Now it happens almost every time after I eat but doesn't last long but geesh why does it happen?

Hi, do any of you still get the grumbly rumbly noise after you eat? I still do almost every single time after I eat. I can't figure it out. Is one month enough time to be gluten-free and see results? I def. feel better but I still get occasional "C" and this annoying intestinal noise :-(

Hi, I can totally understand where you are coming from. I have struggled like all of you for so many years with no answers or shall I say the wrong answers. I am 46 and when I was 26 I was DX with psoriatic arthritis. This is an autoimmune disease, I had to go through mega dr.'s before this was dx. I had lots of inflammation at the time. I mimed lost 50 lbs...
