If wheat is an issue, then many people will not have a chance of getting better.

I personally am now afraid to eat any type of wheat product, just in case.

I did go on a totally GF diet after having tested high for gluten antibodies 3 times, but the diet only turned me from chronic D to chronic C....all the other symptoms (pain, gas, bloat, spasms) were just as bad. And the C is more painful than the D for me, personally.

The doctors cannot agree on if wheat and gluten is a problem for me. One tells me to eat it and one tells me I cannot eat it.

I know this study was based on a small group of people, but still, it showed the antibodies for wheat were present. For those who are not finding relief, do we want to take the chance of eating it? I just don't know and I am very stressed and conflicted about this. It was interested to read everyone's viewpoints, but I am super cautious and if I read anything negative about a food, I become fearful of it. If I were stable, I would be much more willing to eat it to test it. But when you aren't stable...or anywhere near feeling better, it's hard to take any chance at all with any possible problem food.

How do I lose this fear? Or should I be cautious and abstain since I am so sick still?
