    Hi I have been gluten free for 3 years and done so much better . I was not tested for celiac because I had already been gluten free . I am also dairy free and have issues with nuts and citric acid foods. I chose to stay gluten free rather than go back for all the testing . so now I have a bit of a roller coaster of symptoms I will do great for a while but...

    Thankyou both for the suggestions, we had two main dining rooms too the confusing part was that I asked if I could eat in others then they would say yes. but when I would try they would say no you have to preorder go to this place and I would go there and get sent somewhere else and in the long run end up back at the main dinning room. so it was a bit crazy...

    I am finally doing better. I have given my husband the news that our baked treats will be gluten free he wasn't exited but he is willing to try. I think I will get it down and who knows he might actually like it. : ) I am going to try using the dishwasher for my dishes too It probably won't be any worse than leaving them out in the dish rack on the cupboard...

    Yes and I was hoping it would help them know more so I can be diagnosed too one way or the other.

    That helps me feel better I did contact them and list my allergies. I was told I would be meeting with the head person when we board for meal planning. I do feel a little more at ease so I am hoping all goes well. Thanks : )

    I'm not positive I am super sensitive but it would seem that way as I get symptoms over the smallest things, even things I have bought from the store that say gluten free sometimes will bother me. I am still learning alot . I have not been officially diagnosed yet my GI Dr. is working on testing for me. I am 43 and have been struggling with these issues for...

    This is good to know, I know I get really sick if I eat gluten I did just go through my food and found a few mistakes I had made. I have begun monitering my sugar to see if thats the issue and I am trying to do more protien it seems to help. I do find that I cant eat just fruit and candy has to be very small amounts or I feel awful. I believe Im on the right...
