The Pains of Gluten.

I don’t know about you but my body has some definite signs when I have eaten gluten. I have this burning pain in my stomach that is unlike anything else I have ever had. One of my main symptoms is aching joints. Especially my elbow joints. It is such an annoying pain. And for a lack of better words I also have pooping problems. There have been times that I have gotten seriously sick from getting some kind of nasty gluten. For instance I had some lunch meat one time shortly after finding out that I had gluten intolerances and I was so sick. It put me in bed for 3 days with what was like the worst stomach flu a person could have. Another time was my wedding day. I didn’t get a gluten free cake for my wedding. I was thinking that I just wouldn’t eat it but I forgot about the little tradition of sharing a bite of cake with my now hubby. Anyways, so I thought oh one little bite won’t hurt. So guess what happened people. I was sick as a dog through the first two days of my honeymoon and there was only three days in my honeymoon. It was such a big bummer but a lesson to the dangers of gluten to my body. So as you can tell I know when I get some gluten in my body. There are a range of different symptoms for different people and some symptoms may seem like common things other than possible gluten intolerance. Know your body and take care of it well and I hope all of us gluten free people can have symptom free and long healthy life’s.
