Well, I'm starting to wonder if I have food allergies and not the gluten stuff. I ate gluten free for about 10-14 days and felt pretty good. But then the GI issues started up again. I'm starting to wonder if I'm allergic to tomatoes and possibly potatoes. Tomatoes I think are worse for me than potatoes. But this would explain why I felt so bad after Thanksgiving dinner - HUGE serving of mashed potatoes. And again on the drive to Florida for Christmas - french fries and tomato slices on top of sandwiches the whole day down and back. I'm going to get my allergy tests re-done mid March and I've asked them to test for foods. I've only ever been tested for environmental stuff before (trees, weeds, grass, pets) so I'm hoping this will give me a clearer idea of what's bothering me. I've also started keeping track of what I'm eating and how I feel later. It seems that I feel bad the morning after I eat pizza and have stomach cramps after I eat potatoes. Fresh potatoes seem to be worse than processed.
I'm going to try something with gluten and see what happens. If nothing than I know I'm good for that. I did purchase some gluten free stuff in bulk from amazon.com that I may not need. If somebody wants to buy any of it from me *cheap* that would be cool. Jeremy? Jess?
