This is my first post, so bear with me if I screw things up.
Re taking a gluten challenge - I have been a diabetic for 17 years, was
diagnosed with Charcot's joint (bone disease) 2 yrs ago, and originally IBS
10 yrs. The CD diagnosis was done by biopsy 4 mos ago at Johns Hopkins Bay
View. (I was too dumb to say no. But I really didn't mind the test except
for the horrid liquid) I have begun to wonder if all the diseases are not
interrelated. Also, has anyone heard of a connection to lupus (common in my
family). Anyway, after having gas, etc. problems on the GF diet, I decided
to challenge my system with McD's quarterpounder with cheese (mostly b/c I
love them). Well, no reaction!!! Is it possible that I can treat CD like I
do diabetes and VERY OCCASIONALLY go off my diet??
PLEASE GIVE ME ADVICE ON THIS. Also, I would be interested in lunching,
etc. with other CD sufferers in the Baltimore area. If you're interested,
please reply privately.
