Thank you everyone

[Guest guest]

I just wanted to thank you all for your supporta nd answering of my

questions. I have really been through it over the past years of my

life ( I am 24) I have never been healthy. This year things have hit

crisis point...but reading some of your stories I feel like I have

nothing to complain about.

I have my endoscopy and colonoscopy tomorrow ( the tests I " had " to

eat carbs for), so I am using today as a flush and looking forward to

hitting the diet as from tomorrow. I am uptight about the tests though

because my doctor believes I may be a " resistant coeliac " meaning

going off the gluten has not been enough toheal my small intestine,

the cure being steriods. I am really hoping someone will tell me that

this course of action is not needed and that this diet will heal my

intestine...the villi more specifically. I am of the opinion from my

reading that this diet will actually fix me...please tell me I am right?!

My only other issue is my wonderful partner. He adores me and he is

truely understanding and supportive. However he finds this diet hard

to accept...he feeling that I need " sugars " to be healthy...cant blame

him, thats what medical science tells us...any tips on how I can

convince him? He will support my decisions...but I dont want him to

worry!...he really cares about me...and his concern comes from the

right place.

But really this is a message of thanks...I have felt so alone with my

illness and while I am still sorting through a lot of things regarding

it, I feel like this diet is that answer...so thank you sincerely to

everyone for your support.
