Sorry you feel that way every day Karen. I spent a year like that. It's not easy. You'll get to the bottom of it.

It's not so bad anymore, but for a while, I was stumbling over myself, not speaking clearly, etc. I think a lot of it had to do with some of the other stuff going on, but I know some things really affect me more than others. Eggs give me that stupid feeling. I do my best to avoid a lot of things but get so pissed when stuff sneaks in there! I get a case of the stupids within an hour...
Anyway, feeling any better today?

A case of the stupids. HAHAHAA! I know what you mean.
I'm just really tired today. I'm really upset with myself. I was doing so well and feeling so wonderful. All it took was one meal to drag me back down again. I'm trying not to beat myself up but this is really putting me behind in school because I just can't think. Now I'm going to be scrambling all week to catch up.
Oh well. That's life I guess. I just get so mad sometimes when I see how much harder I've had to struggle than my other classmates. I finally got to a point where I felt like I was competitive again and then one damn meal knocks me out. I spent a year like this and I don't ever want to go back to that again. Plus I started my period today so I'm all crabby and bitchy too. LOL AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So sorry you all. Jenaya, in the short time I've known you I haven't seen you do anything BUT kick ass. I hope you feel better soon.

Aww thanks Kristin! I'm starting to finally feel a little better today. I just broke down and had a good cry I got so frustrated with how awful I felt. The cry made me feel a lot better. Now once this toxic crap gets out of my body I can get back to my routine.

Sorry Jenaya, that really sucks. I hope you don't mind the question, but is your gluten allergy a specific condition? It sounds like it must have been difficult to diagnose. I hope you are feeling better tonight! I have known you even shorter than rust but you seem like one motivated ass-kickin' woman to me.

Wow, thanks for the link, Jenaya. What a crazy diagnostic journey, glad you found a great neurologist. Hope things settle down this week.

DAMN M&M's!! I have been hogging down peanut M&M's like crazy lately and I am seriously paying for it now. My body hates sugar. I'm having pelvic pain, painful bowel movements, rectal pain. I am typically symptom free but HOLY COW sugar messes me up so badly.
Identifying those triggers are key to relieving symptoms. YIKES.... ouch... AHHH!! Damn it!

ughh, so i ate a bunch of crap on thanksgiving that I nevvvver eat. Stuffing, creamy mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, the most amazing and rich macaroni and cheese, fruit tarts, and some other things. And for the second half of yesterday and all of today, I have felt HORRIBLE. Like, crazy blood sugar crashing/ brain fog/ horrible feeling. I wonder if I really do have a food allergy...
that mac and cheese was sooooooo good though!!

Yeah we were talking about it in the Thanksgiving thread. I ate a bunch of crap too and haven't been able to think straight ever since. I'm SO bloated still but it's coming down some finally. Amazing what our diets can do to us huh?

I'm in the same boat. Felt instantly woozy while eating everything. It's amazing how our bodies tell us what we do / don't need, thought it took me years to listen to it.
Right now it's still screaming at me, though...
