Yep... I’m reacting

I've been gluten-free for 5 weeks except for two tiny slips (toast crumbs, and a tempting crumb of pancake - I forgot!) So now it's time to do the gluten challenge to see how sick I can get This is particularly important because my blood tests came up negative (out of me already cutting too much gluten from my diet beforehand, by accident). Dr wants me to reintroduce gluten before wheat so we can know exactly what the issue is.

So since last night, I have had soup mix containing gluten (must check exactly what's in it that's gluteny!), two milos, a bowl of porridge, and a bowl of cornflakes. At first I didn't react at all and I was thinking, uh oh this is gonna take longer than I thought. But the tell-tale signs started after lunchtime today.

I am relieved, and yet I feel sick and yucky but not bad enough yet...

But the diagnosis is well and truly in sight!

It sounds like a stressful process. I only know whats its like from testing Islas intolerances. Glad that the diagnosis is closer for you, but sorry you are feeling sick. Hope its sorted soon!

At least you know now, but bummer all the same. So were you feeling really good when you were off gluten?

That's great that you finally have an answer, bummer about having to be gluten free but at least now there are lots more yummy things made that are gluten free.
