Do you ever think that maybe a diagnosis you received may have come back to bite you?

I'm not sure if I'm severe - I get a three-day migraine that is not unresponsive to medication if I eat gluten. 🤷 I was vitamin deficient and had damage to my intestines, but that's fixed now. I have a lot of other weird food stuff going on, but am still unclear if it is even related. The biggest complication is not being able to eat out easily. And I'm that person at parties that I brings their own food.

I'm so used to not eating out, eating at family gatherings. Cooking everything from scratch with salt only. Low fodmap, low sugar, low fat. I have SIBO. Liver issues, kidney failure, migraines, basically systemic issues. Can't tolerate anything hardly at all. Top 9 allergen free. I feel like a basket case of issues with mine. So I was curious about you.

Oh! I didn't realize it can cause other things. I have hashimotos, can't eat soy or animal products and am dizzy sometimes when holding completely still. You are not alone - I just didn't connect all of mine with celiac.
