Thank you for writing about your run! I was a frequent runner before I got sick back in May - I have not had the energy or strength (due to weight loss) to even pick up my running shoes. Reading about your success today has given me hope that I will get back to running, hopefully soon. Did you start off just a few runs a week and build up? I have been...

Amanda: In case you are still reading - I would be happy to be an advocate for Depo. I have been on it for over 10 years w/ no problems. My only problem is my doc's are now making me get off of it due to the decrease in bone density. Probably a combination of the wheat allergy and shots. One of the biggest problems is that once people have one or...

Dear Sore Joints: Although your symptoms could be caused by Gluten Intolerance (joint pain is common from what I can tell on this site), you may want to consider other possibilites. I am recently NOT a fan of MD's and it was a Homeopathic Doctor that identified my gluten-allergy symptoms, but the joint-one pain you are describing sounds alot like what...

For me about 10 minutes after eating. Today for example I was so excited because a friend found a pizza place that has wheat free pizza (corn meal crust). I was about 1/2 way into the slice when the nausea, bloating and cramping started. I noticed that the wheat-free and regular slices were being heated in the same oven, but I was so desperate for pizza...

Hi Henry: I am in the middle of my 3rd week of gluten-free and it has been anything but stable. The first week- amazing difference and then varying days of good and bad since. Probably mostly bad. I know a few times I tried to order at restaurants (I'm just not a home cooking kind of gal) I must have been exposed to some gluten somehow. But other times...

Great to hear I'm not alone out there with the tooth thing - I'm looking forward to my teeth improving too! Thanks, Michelle

SO.. I had this major revelation last night. 6 months ago I went in for a dental check up and to my surprise came away needing 8 procedures (root canals, cavities ect.) was puzzled because although I was overdue for a cleaning (1yr) I wondered how my teeth could have gotten so bad in such a short amount of time. After continuing to feeling sick...

I know the testing is the "standard" for diagnosis - but after having been to 3 doctors in the last 6 weeks - all of who tell me there is nothing wrong with me even though I have lost 10 lbs. am exhausted, can't eat w/o pain and feel just miserable. ---I'm not interested any longer in having any more "tests". I gave up on the MD's and saw a naturopath doc...
