I read Tom's summary about oats with interest.  I number among those who
get sick after eating oats.  But, for me, oats are constipating.  But,
then that's what gluten and dairy do to me as well.  If I eat any of
those three foods, my entire GI track goes on strike & refuses to work.
My old breakfast of milk and toased wheat bread or oatmeal use to stay in
my stomach for hours & hours, while I continued to feel hungry yet
stuffed.  When I was pregnant all four times, I didn't have the typical
morning sickness.  Instead, I would begin feeling nauseated soon after
lunch & would usually lose my breakfast & lunch between 1 & 3 PM.  The
bizarre part is, I've never had diarrhea in my life. That's why my doctor
& I were both reluctant to consider celiac disease as a possible cause of
my health problems until I could no longer ignore the connection between
feeling sick and eating wheat.  Has anyone else had similar experiences?
