It's hard, the ups and downs, you have to stay focused on the goal- to have more good days then bad, I used to journal every day, so that I could look back on the days I was really sick and see that I was indeed having more good days. I also started doing a morning medication daily to try and center myself and deal with the stress and grief of this disorder...

Welcome to the group. I have been gluten free now for four months- so am stil quite the newbie. I can say that when I started the gluten-free diet it took time to see consistent improvements, some days were good, and other days were back to the horrible pain. Your insides are healing right now and it will take some time. One thing that really helped me...

Great insight to Trader Joes- to be honest if they had a lable that said gluten free- I havee just been trusting it. I will be more careful now.

I did read the newbie section, but clearly could use a re-read. Other than the coffee, the other two times were both eating out. I will try both of your suggestions. Thank you for replying. :)

I too worried about all kinds of stuff- like cancer, ulers, you...

Thank you. I feel slightly better knowing that I am not losing my mind. It's so hard for myself and my family to understand how I can go from being fine and active to curled up in a ball feeling like I have been run over. So frustrating!!!

Hi everyone. I was given a tentative diagnosis of celiac through biopsy two weeks ago. Dr wanted me to do blood tests to confirm but I had already removed gluten from my diet and was finally feeling well enough to go to work. So I am on day 19 and I feel like I am on a roller coaster. I am 100 percent gluten free and mostly dairy free. Some days I wake...
