My kind of work out from cheezburger.com
The internet found the perfect workout for me! I’m gonna be ripped.
Today was my visit to the GI doctor. It was a short visit, but since I have effectively corrected my digestive issues with my diet, there wasn’t anything to troubleshoot. He did order a genetic test to see if I have celiac disease. However, if that comes back negative, then my diagnosis is gluten sensitivity. The treatment in both cases is to continue with a gluten-free diet, and, in my case, grain free until I decide to reintroduce some as an experiment. I’m really curious to see how the test results come out.

Good luck with the test. Do you have an
spasmodic GI tract also? Aloe Vera is excellent for southing the bowel, as well as peppermint, though I imagine you have tried this. 🙂

I (thankfully) do hot have a spasmodic gi tract, but I do like to have peppermint tea after meals to help with digestion.

I’ve read in a few different sources that the celiac test is not always reliable; but I don’t know the percentage of failure. Just something to be aware of/look into, I suppose, though it won’t really change your protocol. So glad to hear you’re doing well.

Thanks so much! I am obviously hoping for some sort of definitive answer, but as long as I get SOME information, it has to be better than not knowing. Either way, I’ll know in about a week.
