Hello all,

and hello John. Lovely to hear from you. I've been meaning to write an update and reading your post has urged me on. Look for Nairns gluten free oatcakes. I think they only have gluten free oats, salt and water. I've sometimes eaten four eggs a day (free range) when hungry. Avocados are expensive but I get them from Aldi or Lidl when they are hard and green then keep them in the fridge and take out and ripen on a window sill to have them. I used to eat at least one a day. Sorry to hear nuts are difficult for you to eat. Are you eating the raw, unprocessed nuts? I wonder if you can eat almond butter. There is a very simple almond fudge recipe that you can eat straight out of the freezer which tastes great. Also I make an almond (ground almonds) and flaxseed bread which is quite straightforward and lovely with butter. Do you cook much? I wonder if you would be ok with ground almonds. If not there is always coconut flour to make bread with. I was always ok with chick peas and chick pea flour although I was careful at first with small amounts. You can get mini popadoms from Sainsburys that I again was careful with at first and would still only eat a few. I had lentils in homemade soup though which helped with weight.Soup is easy - lots of any veg cooked together with red lentils - cook for 20 mins then whizz up in liquidiser or with hand held masher. Coconut cream packets also helped keep my weight on and I would add a packet to my soup and have garlic, ginger and spices in the soup which are all great for us. Boiling up a chicken carcass in water for a 2-3 hours makes a good stock to cook the soup veg in. Bone broth is good for us. I also boil up lamb bones if we have a lamb joint.

Its always tough eating in other peoples' homes and truly I haven't done much and it was awkward at times but people cope with me eating protein and salad or veg. They find it hard to believe I won't eat a fruit salad even though I've warned them I don't eat dessert. This was my third Christmas cooking all the Christmas food and not eating most of it! Once I've got my mind set, although I find it hard at times its not been impossible. Also I tell myself that I know what things taste like so I can just remember and don't need to eat it now. I can find it harder if it was some amazing creation that I had no idea what it tasted like. But even then I can get someone to describe it in detail and that's interesting. I am someone that LOVES food and cooking and baking and trying recipes and I have had to let that go a bit. But I am having fun trying all sorts of new ingredients and different ways of cooking.

I thought yesterday, would I ever let myself try a tiny slice of millionaires shortbread, which I make for the family at Christmas. When I think of the sugar content I'm not sure I would ever eat it. I think I would like to try and make a healthier version in the future.

I've got to go and cook tea in a minute so will speed up but keep letting us know how things are going John. It took me about a month to get over the visit to the dermatologist. Its traumatic and there's grief and anger attached and I was never offered anti psychotics so I think its been tough for you. I hope the doctor is a help and support to you.

A quick update for me is that with Mel's agreement I have stopped the WPS. I'm still on the olive leaf as I pack up a month's supply of pill boxes at a time but after a few days that will stop as well. The reason? well I think my symptoms have gone! I got to the stage that I was looking at teeny tiny specks with a magnifying glass and not sure if they were from me or dust in the air. I don't have any crawling, stings or bites or rashes. So I will stop the WPS and olive leaf for a few months and see what happens and keep you posted!

I've been on the protocol for two years and four months. I wanted to be finished in twelve months but its taken a bit longer. Keep going every one!
