glutinous binge

[Guest guest]

After almost 2 years on the diet with NO cheating (except for maybe 3

beers in all that time) I went on a binge. I've been feeling depressed,

and just said the hell with it. So for one, glorious week I ate

whatever I wanted. I had pizza with soy cheese, a brownie, grilled

soy-cheese sandwiches, lasagna, a donut, and probably other stuff I

can't remember---it was like The Lost Weekend, ha ha. I wanted to see

how much I could get away with. It turned out to be quite a lot,

actually---took a whole week before I had any symptoms. Unfortunately,

my ulcer came back. (It cleared up after going on the diet). So I'm

back on the wagon, and it's feeling better. Never did get any

dire-rear, but then I never had that to begin with.

I had a duodenal ulcer and a lot of gastric polyps before becoming GF.

But I only had slight flattening of the villi. After being on the diet

for a year, I had no polyps or ulcer. I was wondering how many of you

had these atypical symptoms?
