Being back is good so far, although we had a crazy first two months with settling down. But now it's good. I actually think that Europe is more IBS friendly when it comes to eating out. My American husband says that it's because European food is more "bland". I don't think it's bland but it is true that I can order simpler meals if I need to. There are always plain boiled potatoes and plain rice on the menu, along with broiled chicken. In the US restaurants are always trying to dress up the meals and sides a bit more with extra cheese, cream, or sauce. It is yummy, but I always paid for it later.
I checked out your blog and really like the recipes, especially the cookie one! I'm definitely making them for Christmas. I have to say that I admire how strictly to stick to eating GF. I did it strictly two years ago for a couple months but then gave it up since I wasn't feeling 100% better.
I think that you don't need the test for celiacs since you seem to have your answer. If you feel better on the diet then that's what you need to know . I actually did get tested, came out negative and I think that's what's causing me going back and forth between GF/WheatF diets. Oh well .
Take care, and I hope you're doing better now!
