I also didn't get completely better after I eliminated the gluten (though I was much better). To make a long story short (if you want to know the long story, I'll be glad tell you) I got food allergy testing. It is a blood test. Because my celiac went misdiagnosed for so many years, my body started rejecting all the foods that I was eating. Celiac is after all an autoimmune disease. The 1st testing, I was NOT allergic to only 5 foods! I was tested further, and we found another 6 foods that I can eat. Had they found the celiac earlier, I wouldn't be in such a mess, but at least I finally have peace and no bloating. The doctor is hoping that once my body heals, I'll be able to add back some of the foods that I'm not "supposed" to be allergic to. I sure hope so. Good luck.

Thanks so much for this info. i have a test tomorrow to see if the fruit that i am eating is bothering me, since its only 1 of the 4 things that i have been eating. my nutritionist talked to me about the blood testing for food problems but she said she didn't want to go that route yet. i will speak to her about it tomorrow. i have found that i have an issue with White rice. i hope that they don't find to many things i cant eat! i also hope that you are able to add things back to your diet once your body heals. thanks again for help. and good luck to you too.
