Have some respect, that's our new centre forward you're talking about.

I had to go back to page 3 to find this, bloody Luzon, Peeters and fan revolt threads have pushed it well down the pecking order.

Work shirts. They are coming with more packaging and plastic shit than ever. I bought one from Next with some Xmas vouchers, and it had a what I can only describe as a metal clothes peg??? I'm still finding plastic in it a week after I opened it

When my alarm is going off in the morning and I drift back off and actually have a mini dream that I have got out of bed and got into the shower only to wake up 10 minutes late to see I'm late.

This has really been annoying me this week. It's easy, there's no reason not to, it's infuriating.

Also getting to me is IBS. No matter what I eat it hits me. I've already given up fags, coffee, chocolate, bread, pastry, beer partially...

Hi Red Panda. I appreciate everyone's body is different etc but my mrs has always struggled with it. She went down the wheat & gluten free route and it has proved to be quite successful. The difficulty is how inconvenient it makes meal times etc. The free from ranges in the supermarket have got better (although still expensive).

It may not be that, so what I recommend is getting an allergy test. The mrs managed to stumble across one on groupon for a harley street clinic or wowcher or something that gave it to her for half price, £40 I think.

I can sympathise because I know it cripples her when she gets it, and no one tends to take it seriously etc, especially if you are a bloke.

Sliced white bread is evil, try cutting that out of your diet.

Tasty though

Thanks for that. I have had tests at my doctor's but not a proper allergy test. Apparently I'm not celiac but I guess wheat could still upset me, it's so inconsistent. I'm a fairly happy person at the moment too so it's not stress.

I'll book another doctor's appointment (he said next time he'll send me for a scan) and keep an eye out for full-on allergy tests elsewhere.

And the same as I said to Red Panda. Get the Mrs properly tested for Coeliac Disease, by which I mean via a blood test (she'd have to be back on Gluten for a period of time beforehand though) and possibly an endoscopy. Knowing you have it or not is important because of the implications it can have/has had on you. It is possible she just has an allergy to the stuff, but Coeliac is an autoimmune disease and it's worth knowing if it's that or not.

cheers I_was, I'll let her know. the irony was that the allergy test she did highlighted the biggest bump on her arm was down too tomatoes. However, when she eats tomatoes, no stomach pain, so you could be onto something

Lumps and bumps can be a thing called Dermatitis Herpetiformis. I had a mild case of it before diagnosis. Check out the Coeliac Uk website. It'll give you info on symptoms etc., and what to do if you think it's that. You may be surprised by the amount of symptoms there are and I could have ticked off at least half of them had I even known what the disease was before I was diagnosed. If you want anymore info or help, rather than clogging this topic up, just pm me.

sorry I wasn't clear. I meant when they do the test, they prick you on your arm with the ingredient/food extract to see a reaction, and tomatoes gave the biggest lump. She doesn't get lumps from eating tomatoes, I'd probably be lobbing them at her for fun of that was the case

Tomatoes are a nightshade and that group of foods can aggravate people. I'd just be wary of the skin tests for these conditions rather than have them checked out properly. I purportedly had a corn allergy when in fact I didn't. Same with IBS, just took 20 years for the right diagnosis!!

Plastic bags at supermarkets. I can't open them and i'm often responsible for queues because of this.

Everyone else seems to be able to just peel the two sides apart. Why can't I?
