I had a nasty gluten attack last Tuesday. It's now Monday and my tummy still hurts! :(
I have stomach pains and feel sick, especially when I eat food.
Not a happy bunny :(
About me
About me la la la
Oh I'm supposed to write something about me here!
Well I'm a twenty-something student studying Pharmacy at Aston Uni. I follow a gluten free diet having had a positive blood test for Coeliac antibodies in December 2006.
I do not have an official diagnosis as I was incredibly ill before going gluten free and my GP decided it was too dangerous for me to eat gluten for 6 more weeks to have the biopsy (having already put me on a gluten free diet.) Part of me regrets this. But I was having fits every time I ate, along with all the typical symptoms, and I just could not put my body through any more of that.
However this means I am not entitled to gluten free foods on prescription. I have fought to be "treated as Coeliac" to no avail. This fact, combined with me being a student, means I try to find, or create, tasty gluten free recipes made from easy-to-find, everyday, cheap(ish!) ingredients.
This is my way of sharing these recipes, and other things I have learnt since being gluten free, with others who might benefit from it.
