<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Well thanks again for all your help re: my horrible 3 weeks after going GF. As some responses suggested, my immunity was low and I caught a cold, then on top of that I got exposed to cat hair, then I had my period - whew! Glad that's over. I read all the responses and watched by body go through all these horrific changes: swollen & sore throat, tongue, esophagus. Plus I "pulled a muscle?" from coughing so hard from the cold, that my lower ab killed every time I coughed after that. When I started to feel better VOILA a urinary tract infection! The good news is that now I feel GREAT! I realize that as one of your responses suggested, I was ridding my body of candida related probably from Leaky Gut. It was a dramatic reaction though - my tongue had always had a white coating on it and when this happened it began to swell & peel. Sine my throat and esophus were also sore I wonder if a similar process was going on, not to mention all the toxins/fungus/whatever the hell my body was retaining (including water). Now I have actually lost weight - the urinary tract infection was, I think, my kidneys & urinary tract purging itself in much the same way. OK so I apologize for going on but I have two questions: Has anyone used Oil of Oregeno? I tried it internally & on my scalp (to hasten regrowth) don't know if it will help but I can already see a difference since going GF. Also Does anyone know if Dr. Ulene vitamins are GF????? I just bought some and want to start taking them. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart - I am sooo happy, feel so much better, even though I still get easily fatigued, I have much more energy. Luv, Angie
