    Ruth - do you still eat a few servings of fruit each day?

    I don't want to cut it out, I really don't. Today I have pain in my ear, pressure in my eyes and head, C, joint pain and vertigo. I just want to feel better. I had potato salad over the weekend, other than that everything was normal. Oh I had a few pieces of cheese. I feel like practically everything makes me sick. I guess it wouldn't kill me to give...

    Nicole---I had no idea it was so long. Lol my informed GI had me eat it for 10 days. I don't think I will ever do it for 3 months.

    Ok, so I have come to terms with the fact that for now, at least, gluten-free grains are like gluten Jr, no alcohol, and either no soy, no msg or both. Oh yeah no chocolate Plain sugary stuff seems to be ok, though. Like hard candy, or Talenti Sorbet (omg so good). Is it likely that even if I don't feel sick or have issues that I notice, that it is...

    You don't have to tell me twice! Pinot grigio is my favorite. I chose other drinks over the past year because I was afraid wine would mess me up too much. Hmm I'm guessing wine was bad too then, it was a long time ago and I don't remember, but why else would I have been trying different stuff? Ughh healing the gut is going to be so tedious, but obviously...

    Thank you everyone for the advice. I didn't drink. I can't even handle gluten-free crackers/ cereal etc. yet. I will wait on the alcohol too.

    Thank you, Ruth

    I am not sure why that middle paragraph is highlighted. It's not a quote

    Thanks again for helping everyone. "isn't this sacrifice worth it to some extent? To have a Dx, so they can be tested, and they can have a better chance of getting Dx'ed as early as possible? " My daughter does have a distended abdomen, gas CONSTANTLY, eczema, mood swings, frequent diarrhea, spots on teeth. I tried a gluten challenge with her...

    Thank you everyone. I do feel a little better about it now. Every few months I keep trying to go back on grains bc I think I must be nuts, but I get sick. Every system of my body is affected. I am finally ready to say that I am done. A dx would be nice, though. I'm a single mom who works full time. I can't get sick for 6 weeks. Plus I honestly lose...

    Maybe try going off paleontologists? I felt awesome on it at first, but then I started eating more nuts, and oh my goodness, the bloating, pain, and diarrhea were awful, I tried almond milk a few weeks ago, it went right through me (sorry if that grosses anyone out). But that was much better than actual nuts, because the pain lasts for days.

    I want to ask how people got used to advocating for themselves with friends, family, etc. It sounds like a weird question, but I have had social anxiety and depression since I was young, which makes it hard for me. I am afraid people will think I am lying or just being my normal crazy self. The ironic thing is that being gluten-free makes my crazies go...

    Sorry for beating a dead horse here, (wow what an awful idiom), but I am planning on having a few drinks tonight and am apprehensive. The last 2 times that I drank ( the only 2 times since going gluten free about a year ago) I had bad reactions. The first time I had vodka, so I can confidently say it was the gluten. The next time it was crown royal. ...

    I have been dx with bipolar 2. After removing gluten the roller coaster is much better. Additionally I did used to have issues with seeing shadow people, hearing things and paranoia. That has been gone for about a year. I took out milk and gluten at practically the same time, so I really don't know which it was, if any, though I suspect it was one of...

    Desperate- I don't think I am super sensitive. I definitely can't eat things made on shared equipment or cooked on the same surface. I don't know what types of reactions super sensitive people have. I will read about it after this. No crackers, just carrots. I also had gluten free chex which I thought I reacted to before, but dismissed it because...

    Yesterday a friend asked me to lunch and I brought my own to be safe. We ate at a pizza place, and I didn't eat or drink anything from the store. Is it possible that I was glutened just by eating in there? If not I don't know what it could be from. I also had sabra olive hummus, but it says gluten free and seems like others are fine with it. Thanks!
