I have been gluten-free (then wheat-free) since November 2000.  Going GF
cleared up my intestinal symptoms within a few days.  I later found that I do
not have celiac disease, but have wheat intolerance.  My doctor said that I
should experiment to find out what I can eat.  I tried one wheat-based muffin
in January and my symptoms returned for a day or so, thus confirming the fact
that my symptoms are related to injestion of wheat.  I have not eaten wheat
since then, until last week when I ate corn bread (with wheat flour as an
ingredient).  I have been eating one piece a day for the last few days, and I
have not had any symptoms.  I suspect that I'll find that I can eat small
amounts without a problem now that my system has healed.  My question is the
following... Does anybody know if one can begin eating wheat again after a
period of being off of it?  If other people have experiences with wheat
intolerance I would very much like to hear them.

Thanks,
Dorothy
