Hi, I've been gluten-free for about 4 months now and had a pretty good handle on it most of the time. I can't tolerate soy, dairy, spicy foods(tomato sauce) or peanuts anymore, so that has narrowed even my gluten-free choices down, pretty much bland food. I would always have a little pooch, but hey after losing 30 lbs. because of celiac, I wasn't...

I was misdx. for a yr. before I talked my Dr into doing tests. I've been gluten-free for 6 wks. I did really good at first as far as starting to be able to eat again and getting everything calmed down. There are still alot of food that I can't eat and I know that it's gonna take awhile for my intestines to heal. However, about 2 wks. ago I discovered...

What syms do you go thru when you've had gluten? Does anyone get so bloated that they litterally start throwing up air? This happens to me and it is horrible. I'm now on day 3 and might be going to get an IV for fluids. I haven't eaten/drank anything in almost 72 hrs. I started throwing up blood last night. Please tell me that there are others out there...

I have been on the gluten-free for 2 wks. 2 days after I started it I felt better than I had in almost a yr.!! Since then, I've had a few errors, (didn't know all the additives and such) and had as many good days as bad. My most important question is after your intestines have been damaged and you start the diet, how long did you have to eat the really...
