With the help and support of this board I am learning what I can/can't eat! I'm doing better these days--I gained 5 pounds, finally got my period after 10 months (I was never pregnant--I checked every couple of months). I'm eating peppers, cheese, and cooked broccoli! I can't believe it! No gluten though!
Is it still possible I have IBS? Could I just be having a good time right now and the falre-ups will come back? Or, does it sound like the gluten is the culprit? I am less constipated (not taking fiber--eating it instead), not nearly as gassy, still bloated though-not as bad.
It is SO GREAT to be able to eat without AGONY! I hope it stays this way!
Thank you so much to everyone on this board--you've helped me more than I can tell!
I love you all!

Ruchie, im so happy that youre doing so much better. Im doing pretty okay myself, my daily attacks have actually stopped and im getting back on track (Thank God) I think the fiber is really benefiting me and im daily prayers help as well. As far as the pd goes... im still waiting for mine to come....

It is possible to have IBS as well as celiac, but it definitely sounds you're on the right track. I would try dairy free. Have you ever been tested for lactose intolerance? I know dairy for me is my number 1 IBS culprit and bloater. That may help your symptoms. Try it and see if there's a difference. So wonderful to hear someone actually feeling better for a change! Hugs to you girl.

Thats great that you are feeling better. One thing I have learned that all this takes time, and I'm kind of an impatient person when it comes to things taking time, but I have dealt with this and now I'm glad I changed my diet because I have felt better and this board has helped me tremendously. Glad you are feeling better
