I cough constantly and often vomit.... ya.... not fun

I have a condition that is confusing every doctor i talk to. Along with celiac i appear to have some "allergic esophagus" thing. (I dont know the exact term) I was wondering if any of you have heard of it.

Well, thanks. I've been gluten-free for about a month now and am feeling tons better! I'm also getting used to not being able to eat cheeseburgers and pizza.

Thanks,

Not quite as reassuring as I hoped it would be lol. But it helps me realize how serious this is.

I'm in Japan right now and am having some problems communicating at restaurants with the little Japanese I know. It took me a while to figure out that "glutenous" rice doesnt actually contain gluten and just means its sticky. Does anyone have any tips about eating while on vacation with VERY non-american food? I dont just mean Japan but foreign countries in general.

Thanks,

Matt

Thanks. What was that about a mistake once a month is like not treating it at all? Any opinions on that? Cuz that seems to make no sense. Also, what are some good gluten-free cookbooks and stores with gluten-free items?

I've been undiagnosed and rapidly consuming gluten (tons of cheeseburgers) for all 15 years of my life. I have been gluten-free for about 2 days although I may have accidently eaten some chocolate cake (hidden in chocolate mousse) today. It really worries me how people say just a tiny bit of gluten can cause damage. Does that mean that if you make a mistake once in a while you wont get better?

Thanks

Will the digestive system damage done before I was diagnosed and went gluten-free heal? Also, how long does it take of being gluten-free to start feeling better?

Thanks
