Back and Forth, Up and Down

[Guest guest]

I just want to way that you are a celiac, but you are

also, and mainly, a human being. Everyone has times

when they are more tired than usual. Everyone gets

sick. Celiacs tend to blame celiac disease for

everything they feel, and that's not always right.

Just remember to rest when you are tired, it's your

body telling you that you need to rest.

After a while on the g-f diet you will begin to feel

better. I had been sick for 13 years, and when I was

finally diagnosed it took around 2 year for me to feel

" normal " . I had gastric symptoms all that time,I just

stayed on the g-f diet, knowing it was what I had to

do.

When I had food poisoning a few years ago, I think it

was just that, not the celiac disease kicking in

again.

One more thing: at a conference a year ago, I think it

was the Stanford Celiac Conf, I heard a doctor say

that once you have a malabsorbtion problem, you may

always have some malabsorbtion. So expect it once in

a while, and don't let it get you down.

Thank heavens for Imodium!!
