This is my Nineveh!

A year ago I was diagnosed with Celiacs Disease, an allergy to all things gluten (wheat, rye, barley...)

Yesterday, after work, I got a call from my new doctor who ran my blood work twice and passed the results on to an allergist.

I had been miss diagnosed.

I lived a year in terror, literally. It wasn't just what I ate, it was what my food was cooked on, prepared in, cooked next too, fried in......

A year of afraid of getting sick again ...

Day Four... 94% Raw and crying cause I want Vanilla Silk and it's got additives. Oh well, I'll pass. I did give into a chocolate craving tho...

"Breakfast" was more frozen berries with soy milk (no addatives, preservatives or pasturization) before bed. I'll stick to the local brand until I learn the ways of nut milk that is palatable and not like water. ^_^

Wake up was wonderful! Fasting blood sugar:

148

2 hours after chocolate ...

Hi Everyone!

So here we are. Day Three! Yesterday was an okay day. Made it to Whole Foods, did the shopping. It was, crazy. Dan was, well, frustrating to be around during that experience. Needed a new food processor and blender. Still need a dehydrator. I'm still frustrated that those small appliances ended up stuck somewhere between California and this second move, but at least I have shiny new ones. The quality this time around is much better so I can't complain tooooo ...

Yesterday I had a horrible wake up call. My doctor called, not her service, not her nurse, not her PA. She was scared. My body has been mixed up, messed up and not very happy for about a week now. Apparently while my fasting sugar was a happy thing a week ago and has been steadily climbing out of the happy normal range, my none fasting blood sugar is sky high. She rushed through a list of tests that they had run and that the results are indicative of poor pancreatic enzyme out put and that ...

I wish I didn't have the Mission Impossible theme running through my head... but it is. This whole moving forward and making changes feels nearly impossible. I'm trying to move past that feeling and find one of 'I can' or 'can do' but in all honestly, I'm severely lacking.

It's really hard. Right now my life is dictated by my beloved boy friend, who is great, don't get me wrong, but we live in the middle of no where and being that I can't drive making changes is very hard.
