For over two years now, I have been suffering from an array of symptoms. I started a gluten free diet on my own initiative - I am now feeling so much better!”
I reply: “Sorry that you have been so unwell and that you have not had support with the going gluten-free. Well done on taking the initiative of going gluten-free. The first thing that you need is to be confident in your diagnosis: you have The Gluten Syndrome. You will probably need to stay gluten-free life-long. You are likely to continue to feel better. You do not need more tests as you have been off gluten too long to make the tests useful. Now you can be happy with your increasingly good health”.
I hear this story heaps – please add your comments to the forum. Cheers, Dr Rodney Ford.
