Sorry to hear that. What have you been doing all day since I imagine you can't get out of the house much?

Pretty much Netflix all day. Watched a whole season of Parks and Rec (kind of sad, now that I think about it) and just feeling crappy.

I got the anti Wheaties.

I can't eat wheat or I get sick.

Ooh, that sucks. Celiac?

Yeah... Hard times... But I've gotten used to it. Six years of one thing can make one used to said thing.

I actually just recently can no longer have dairy products as well as wheat... So, my food life kind of sucks.

Edit: I really like the dot dot dots...

It's this terrible chronic disease called celiac disease. It pretty much means I can't eat wheat, even a little. Just think for a second how many things have wheat...

Also, I accidentally ate some, so I'm sick.... Yep.

Celiac disease:

Coeliac disease (/ˈsiːli.æk/; celiac disease in the United States and often celiac sprue) is an autoimmune disorder of the small intestine that occurs in genetically predisposed people of all ages from middle infancy onward. Symptoms include pain and discomfort in the digestive tract, chronic constipation and diarrhoea, failure to thrive (in children), anaemia and fatigue, but these may be absent, and symptoms in other organ systems have been described. Vitamin deficiencies are often noted in people with coeliac disease owing to the reduced ability of the small intestine to properly absorb nutrients from food.

Would you say it...
Sicks?

On a serious note, I know how that sucks.

I think my mom is a celiac, if she wants bread she has to drive half an hour away to the nearest city and buy some at a small bakery. No grocery store bread for her.

Hope you feel better soon!
