Hi, my name is Debra Hindes, and I live in eastern Massachusetts, USA.
Am 39 years old, and was diagnosed w/celiac sprue 6 years ago.  My doctor
told me it would be perfectly okay to "cheat" on the diet once in a
while.  Whenvever I've tried, however, I've reacted within a few hours
with violent vomiting.  It's been very effective as aversive
conditioning, but I don't understand how my body can reject gluten before
it ever reaches the small intestine.  Any ideas?
Also, any local support groups to recommend?
BTW, finding this list is the best thing that's happened to me in a while.
Thank you all.
Debra
