For months now i have not been feeling well, light headed, really bad nausea, down and fed up, so tired , upset tummy, i also have dermatitis on my hands etc

I noticed this morning that i felt fine when i got up, then i had bread at breakfast and was hit with extreme nausea. Was fine late morning then had a burger with a bread bun and then later this afternoon a chocoolate rice crispie cake, i feel so nauseated again.....would a gluten intolerance explain this?

It would explain so much but i dont want to assume this is what it is, any experience with this would be great, thank you smile

    Hi Paula, it could be an intolerance or it could be Coeliac disease (which is an auto immune disease). The only way for you to find out is to ask your doctor to run some tests, but you will need to be eating gluten every day for 6 weeks prior to being tested.

      Do you think it sounds likely? I hate to self diagnose but from what i read it sounds like it could be?
