Day 103 ~ The 3 1/2 month evaluation

For months now, people have been asking me if I feel any difference since going g-free. My answer has been, "Not really--not yet anyway." But last Tuesday, I realized I did feel better. But I thought it was a fluke--a good day--so I gave it another day, and another....till I have decided that I really do feel better. My arthritis in general is better, less joint pain, and I have a more energetic interest in my day, instead of just pushing myself through the day and the things I want to do.

The odd thing though, is that last Monday I actually felt very bad--achy and draggy--worse than normal. So when Tuesday came and I felt great, it was a surprise. I don't know what that would be all about, but maybe it was the last of the system getting cleaned out or something--who knows!

From all I have read, it seems that inflammation caused by gluten can take about 3 months to begin to calm down. So it seems that might be true in my case too. I am curios to see what 6 months without gluten will do.
