But I tested negative....

I'm starting the journey of eating Gluten Free this week. Have not had gluten since Saturday Jan 21st,2012. I have not tested positive for Gluten intolerance yet I am going down this road anyway.

Why!!??? you are asking yourself. Why would anyone do this without a valid reason too?? It is so hard to follow ect ect.

Simple answer is ,I've been sick. I've been diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder of the inner ear, I also have had a low white blood count for several years, suffer from bloating and gas for months now. And than with the new year came a new symptom,stomach cramping and pains. So I'm thinking to myself,this whole thing is getting worse. Whatever is wrong with me is progressing and I'm getting more symptoms all the time. I feel tired and vaguely depressed allot also.

Well within 24 hours of eating GF free I have not had any stomach pains OR gas and bloating!! That right there told me something right away. Either I am Celiac (and have had false negatives with the testing) OR I am Gluten sensitive,which can still cause you much discomfort .
So far the ear is still an issue but I can already feel that I'm a bit more energetic. So I am very excited to see how I feel in a month!
 The hard part of this will be staying at 1500 mg of sodium like my ENT wants AND gluten free . It will mean cooking allot myself as eating out was hard to do with low sodium but will be even harder GF free. But you know what? feeling sick and tired all the time and watching your health deteriorate is worse.
