ARCHIVED 3 Weeks In: Will It Ever Get Better?
Hala replied to Hala's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I managed to get her email address and sent her a long email explaining how upset I was and introducing some new questions. She apologised for me being kept in the dark but skipped over my questions as if she hadn't read them at all... She then said to contact her if I had any more enquiries before our next meeting on wednesday, so I sent her another email... -
ARCHIVED What Do You Do With Open Foodstuff Which You Now Can't Eat.
Hala replied to 1desperateladysaved's topic in Super Sensitive People

Thanks so much again for the help and support guys, it's such a relief to know there are others out there in the world with the same experiences as me!

I had a bit... -

She was only interested in making me try to figure out exactly what I had eaten over the past week in epic detail, which I found quite difficult. I found her quite demanding and a little terrifying/overwhelming to be honest! She didn't really listen to my concerns about feeling ill a lot of... -

Hala replied to Chaff's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm in my third gluten-free week too and had a dream that one of my housemates tried to force-feed me pasta...and there were breadcrumbs and slices of bread on every surface! -

Thanks very much everyone for the support and advice! I'm seeing a dietitian tomorrow so hopefully I can talk through my concerns with her too. As a vegetarian who is now gluten, oat and lactose-free and avoiding processed gluten-free products (and I don't eat nuts/seeds because I really hate them), I'm really reluctant to cut out any vegetables, pulses... -

Hi, This is my first post so I'm still getting used to the terminology/acronyms used on this site! It's been 3 weeks as of tomorrow since I was diagnosed with coeliac disease and started my gluten-free life. I've found it quite an overwhelming and emotional learning process (esp. as GPs seem to know nothing and haven't had a meeting with dietitian yet...
