Gluten for Five Weeks - the First Five Days

There was a mistake in my medical file from my doctor in Florida.  Instead of having Celiac in the condition/diagnosis area of my chart, it was put only in the notes.  This means that the tests that I took two years ago have to be completely repeated.  For me personally that means eating five weeks of gluten.  I decided to turn this into a science experiment of one.  This is a way to test the reaction to gluten on a known celiac sufferer.  I have started keeping track of my gluten intake as well as reaction times and the type of reactions.  Below is the diary of what has occurred so far.

Giving yourself a chance to be Happy.

I was recently invited to try the Beta of Happify, and it seemed to go right along with making yourself better.  What Happify does is it uses science to help you get over some of your major issues.  For example, I have trouble dealing with stress.  Each day I go in and do projects that will help me cope with the stress in my life without letting it affect me as much.  This is great since everything always hits me at once.  I sometimes feel like I am moving my life from one crisis at a time to the next.  No sooner do I have one thing cleared up, when another two drop on me.
