it depends on who it is...       02/25/05 04:25 PM Edit Reply Quote khyricat Reged: 08/05/04 Posts: 3612 Loc: Michigan family and close friends I've been honest and specific with.. coworkers and not so close friends I mention food allergies (I am allergic to dairy) and I treat the other foods that set me off as allergens to them... most people if you mention having multiple food allergies get much more understanding of your being picky about food.. a few coworkers who comment that I wear dresses when we have a relaxed dress code at work and I am friends with I have told that eating the wrong thing bloats me and a few have even seen it on days I've worn pants so they understand! it works... as to the rest- I have a medical note about a chronic bowel condition on file so bathroom runs won't affect job performance in a stats oriented company, but otherwise I just cope and try to avoid making a big deal out of things.
