so I posted the other day I'm going to try gluten free for my psoriasis. after a recent strep infection and round of antibiotics my psoriasis has flared up big time. coming back in places it has not been in over a year. itchy and my feet ache and my hands hurt with what should be simple tasks such as using tongs while grilling out.
I told myself I'd start for really real on 8/1 but I really started and have stuck to it since about a week ago. at first I thought o was noticing improvement already, and I was excited but i have new areas today and I am itchier than ever! ugh! I've also been an emotional wreck, ugly crying at least 3x in the past week (it's also PMS week but I'm not normally such a cry baby)
so I'm not sure what's going on but I'm going to stick it out for at least 30 days. I read it can take 60 so if I see ANY improvement in 30 I'll likely keep going.
I am also looking into other things that will help my gut health, since antibiotics caused yeastie things to happen in my girly parts I'm thinking that's going on inside my gut as well and causing this relapse.
well see. I hope to share some progress along the way and possibly help others as I've been searching and reading blogs myself for insight.
today was an off day for me so my eating was strange:
coffee from a coffee place with cream and sugar free syrup
gluten free chex mix I made (fall time recipe) yogurt bark I made and a black bean brownie (wondering now if maybe my oats are not gluten free?)
turkey meat with a slice of provolone
Turkey meatballs over "zoodles"
more yogurt bark
super itchy today and p has spread. oats used today and 2 days ago may not be gf. going to look into that more.
so far it has not been that hard. I did have to pay more attention at the store and google some things. I found gf soy sauce in wm but had to go to a health food store for gf hoisin sauce for a recipe this week.
I feel like if you stay away from boxed crap (read easy meals) it's not too rough besides pasta man... I love pasta!
