Hi, I'm struggling to come to terms with gluten intolerance. I know I sound daft as things could've been a lot worse given all the symptoms, but I feel like an absolute pain asking for 'special' food.
I am aware that if this was one of my friends of be extremely supportive and advise them there's no shame in it. I'm just really struggling. Did anyone else feel like this at the beginning?
Don't want to drop feed so... I have been referred to gastroenterologist, have had blood test for celiac come back negative, had colonoscopy with biopsies as bowel cancer in family and symptoms were indicative...all negative thankfully.
This may be what's compounding the feeling that I'm making too much of a mere allergy as I know the diagnosis could've been so much worse.
Any advice gratefully received, thank you :-)
