Remembering that makes me feel good at how far I have come. <BR/>By the way, I bought a Tempupedic bed, and that was the best investment for this RA body. I sleep so much better on it.<BR/>:-)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12824482120456388016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-75136035646434915132008-06-27T08:18:00.000-05:002008-06-27T08:18:00.000-05:00Hi Karen,I have been gluten and dairy free for alm...Hi Karen,<BR/>I have been gluten and dairy free for almost four years. When I originally went gf/df, I had amazing results that stayed with me until around Christmas of this year when the symptoms returned. So, we are digging deeper to find the cause. <BR/>Thanks for reading my blog. <BR/>CathyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076282329093508289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-25484112229805525952008-06-27T08:12:00.000-05:002008-06-27T08:12:00.000-05:00I have never been stuck in a tub, but I have had p...I have never been stuck in a tub, but I have had pain in my legs and feet so bad that I had to take pain relievers just to get to sleep. When I went gluten free, the pain in my legs and feet went away. <BR/><BR/>I know not everyone is gluten intolerant, but it might just be worth a try to eliminate gluten from your diet for a couple of weeks to see if it helps. <BR/><BR/>email me for more info if you are interested in this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11731276173410889180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-90976629957774155022008-06-18T14:59:00.000-05:002008-06-18T14:59:00.000-05:00My dad called to tell me that he too was stuck in ...My dad called to tell me that he too was stuck in the tub recently. I said, "It is sad to be having the same problems as your 68-69 year old father."
