Today, I had a lovely gluten-free pizza out at a local restaurant. After I'd finished, they informed me it wasn't in fact gluten-free. I am Celiac and this means I will be ill for the next six weeks. FML

Today, I found out I have celiac disease. I also happen to be a baker and will be constantly reminded of all the wheat products I can no longer enjoy. FML

How could you do this to me?

Today, I learned I'm not allergic to gluten. My mom has kept me on a gluten-free diet since I was 5. She was convinced I was allergic to it. I'm 25 and I am writing this over my first slice of pizza in 20 years. FML

Today, my two favorite things in the world are Pizza and Beer... I now discover I have Celiac and can't have either. FML

Today, I found out that I have a gluten allergy. What this basically means is that I can't eat anything with wheat in it; bread, pasta, cake, you name it. I am Italian, this basically limits me from eating any of the awesome food my family makes almost every night. Here I come plain rice. FML

Denial

Today, during a job interview, I was offered a sandwich. I politely declined, explaining that I'm a coeliac and would probably get very sick. He said coeliac disease "isn't real" and that gluten-free eating is just a fad. I had to leave when he kept pushing me to accept it. FML

Today, my husband and I found out that our daughter's chronic stomach aches are due to gluten intolerance, so we need to cut all wheat out of our diet. We're bakers. FML

Today, I found out I'm going to be celebrating New Year's with a gastroscopy and colonoscopy. It's been two days since I discovered I'm gluten intolerant to go with my lactose intolerance. It's also my 28th birthday tomorrow. FML

Today, I was fired from the restaurant I work at because I missed my shift. I missed it because I was in the hospital for food poisoning from the meal I ate at work last night. FML

Today, I told my mom that I think I'm lactose intolerant, and that I should go to the doctor to get checked out. She said that I was probably just gassy, and then ordered us a pizza for dinner. FML

Today, I went out to eat to celebrate getting over the stomach flu. I hadn't eaten solid food in over a week, so I was really excited and ordered my favorite dish. It gave me food poisoning. FML

Since you have a medical condition, and were lied to, you can do the greatest thing available to adult Americans: Sue them.

I am not normally the one to scream "sue", but in this case it is warranted. If you are ill because of their negligence, they should be liable for medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, etc. What is to keep them from lying about something like peanuts and causing someone's death?

Somehow I doubt you have celiac's disease. Because people with it, doesn't claim "I am Celiac". They'll say "I have celiac's disease". SO .... YDI because you're probably one of those "urmahgud gluten yuck" trend-following-douchenozzles

thats as bad as eaterys thinking people are "on eating fads" like ordering diet coake so they give them regular.. or when asked for decaf does the same.. you can sue because you requested as your dietery needs.

Hmm. My younger brother supposedly had celiac. We were told any gluten would kill him. Turns out he didn't have it. If thats true wouldn't you be dead?

People can have different levels of allergies. For example, when I am stung by a bee, the area swells up and I might feel a little ill. When my mother is stung, she goes into anaphylactic shock where her throat swells up and she cannot breath and could die. So just because the suspected your brother to have it and said he would die doesn't mean that will be the case for everyone who has the same disease. A lot of people just get severely ill for a while.
