GUESS WHO'S BACK

Iiiiin da crib!


My cat, the queen of toilet fetishists has to appreciate it right heere! 


They still haven't found out definitely what is wrong with me, but yesterday when I'd been home for about an hour, my pedo doctor called and told my gramma I have celiac disease. You're probably thinking 'WHOA OMG DISEASE ARE YOU TERMINALLY ILL?!' - don't fret, there's nothing terminal and nothing ill, it's pretty simple actually: Something like lactose intolerance only with gluten and gliadin, so that means no bread, no noodles, basically nothing containing wheat.
He also said this often causes bouts of depression, but added that it could be caused by a LI, could cause the LI, or simply just stomp everything out without me noticing. It's pretty fitting, because guess what the only foods I ate during the last two weeks of me being ill were? Pretzel sticks, crispbread, noodle soup. This basically explains ALL of it.

Funny enough, my friend C, whose mother also has celiac disease, was really saying 24/7 that it maybe could be that and why don't I get tested and...
Of course I immediately texted her yesterday with the diagnosis and she called me, telling me her mom had all kinds of info that she'd gladly share with me and I was invited to come for gluten-free cake and coffee ;) Thanks, sweetheart, you rescued my evening!

Another thing I may have in relation to my non-stopping dizziness (although C said her mom also had that when she still ate wheat) is migraine, but they'll tell as soon as they know.

So my first visit to hospital is over, I know something more, but still have to do the other intolerance tests and hope nothing comes out there!

P.S.: LOOK WHAT I JUST SAW WHEN I WENT INTO THE KITCHEN! (with an added real life GASP)


IT'S PARADIIIIIIIISE!
