June's Story

All my life I have had a ‘funny tummy’ but I lived with it, accepting it as part of life. I would be reluctant to go out to dinner or social events because of my ‘funny tummy’.

Now I know what the triggers are that cause my problems I can manage it myself and life has totally changed. I go out to dinner with friends, go to the theatre without having to immediately look for the loo. Sorting out my food triggers has also, to my complete surprise, meant that for the first time for at least twenty years I sleep the night through.

Before I just accepted I was a poor sleeper now my brain is sharper and I have so much more energy. Only now feeling as well as I am, do I realise just how poorly I was feeling all of the time. I visited my Doctor frequently, he is very caring but food never came into the conversation. I just wish I had known about food intolerance years ago.
