You actually make me feel better about my recent celiac diagnosis. I'm sorry you've got to deal with all that though, that sounds terrible.

Are you allergic to wheat or are you also celiac?

Celiac is so difficult! I'm sorry you have to deal with that. You'll get into a routine eventually, especially when it comes to checking food labels. You'll still have to deal with trusting people when it comes to eating at restaurants or friends. I ordered food last week for the first time in ages and asked if their soup has corn. I forgot to add "or corn starch", totally gave myself a terrible allergic reaction lol

As far as I can tell, gluten does not trigger my allergies. I don't know which protein I'm allergic to, the allergist couldn't tell me
