Ya, I started cutting out wheat today. My appointment is on Monday and hopefully we can schedule blood tests right away. From what I understand, your indicators return to baseline after a few weeks on a gluten-free diet, so I don't want to chance having a false negative, you know?

There are a lot of resources and ideas for a GF diet, but if you want to ask me questions or tap me for GF food ideas, just send me an email.
