You guys are great! Thank you so much for this feedback - it really does help to know that sometimes, certain foods *can* cause your body to take awhile to heal. For some silly reason, cheese is the worst for me.
I've been dairy-free for five months now, and it was just a case of forgetting to ask for no cheese at a restaurant, me being really hungry - the place being really busy, and me thinking, "Oh, just this little bit won't hurt".
Hmmph! Not true.
The peppermint tea has been helping a lot. I still need to get to the store to pick up some peppermint oil supplements, as mentioned in another thread. There's only so much peppermint tea a person can drink, but I *am* amazed at what a difference two giant mugfuls of strongly brewed peppermint tea can make. I feel a lot better.
I've also cleaned up my eating - back to sort of an 'elimination' kind of WOE along with low-carbing. No eggs, no dairy, no wheat, no sugar, no soy, no corn, no peanuts or peanut butter. It's helping already. I mean, half that stuff is out of my diet anyway - but I'm being religious now about avoiding soy and things like 'corn oil' or whatever in prepared salad dressings and so on.
Thanks again everyone.
