Going gluten-free is GREAT! Before: I was always taking Maalox, Tums, and ibuprofen to control the pain.
Now: I just take my "emergency pill" if I accidentally have gluten (Which has only been once).
Before: I would always feel nauseous and throw up/dry heave regularly.
Now: NO PROBLEM!
Before: We had to run to the emergency room whenever my stomach would have a "spasm". The pain was indescribable. It would leave me on the floor in the fetal position trying not to sob so my stomach wouldn't shake.
Now: There have been no emergency room runs or spasms.
Before: I got headaches.
Now: I don't.
Before: Every few months I would randomly lose 10 pounds in a week, and it would take months to gain it back to be at a healthy level.
Now: NO PROBLEM!

I'm glad that you don't have problems anymore with gluten. Yay!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you could send me the Sumsion's address. We are in California until the first of July and I forgot to grab their address for our rent check. If you would, I would be very appreciative!
