I guess I'm simply very fortunate - I don't seem to have any food allergies at all, although there are things I won't eat because I simply don't like them, LOL...But I guess it was useful to carry out this little experiment - the effects did drive home the point, LOL...

I played around with the gluten-free thing over a yr ago as part of a whole healthy eating plan that included giving up several things and definitely benefited...but quit when I went to work and lived in hotels and worked these insane hours - I just wasn't committed enough. Since, I've been kind of on/off. Then, like you, I started having issues....in the last month, I've had one's almost identical to what you describe and have had a sonogram, endoscopy, and just had an MRI of my liver and I don't know what else. I'm better from quadrupling my -no longer OTC-reflux med....but there is definitely something going on and I know it is definitely diet influenced - I'm just waiting to rule out anything else before I launch whole-heartedly into a food plan....because I am NOT going to feel like I felt for the rest of my life!.............and I'm very glad you are on the mend.

I think it must be something we must be careful of as we age Pat. Remember when we used to scrunch green apples and love sugared dough-nuts. Tear the crust off of new bread and gulp down fizzy lemonade. Anyway your experiment worked, I would not try it again.
