Reflections:
The Mistake. OK, so staying gluten free didn't last all that long. I found that my asthma wasn't improving so I threw in the towel. It's tough avoiding gluten when no one else in the house is. Anyways, Wednesday we went to a meeting and they were serving pizza so I decided to have a slice. It's been so long since I've had commercially made pizza that I decided to splurge. I really wish I hadn't. Late Wednesday night/early Thursday morning I woke up with the worst stomach cramping. I got up and took some pepto bismal and tried to unsuccessfully go back to sleep. It didn't get better. By Friday afternoon I decided to call Kaiser's advice nurse. Apparently I just have some serious indigestion. Thanks Pizza.
I feel your pain Rachel, doing the Gluten Free thing is tough if you don't absolutely have to do it - The solution to your problem is Milk Kefir! A small glass of it (not straight from the refrigerator cold is preferable) helps with that type of indigestion a whole lot. A little pot helps too.
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, I can't imagine trying to do the GF thing when the rest of the house is on a normal diet!
Oh no! Hope you feel better soon.
