Oh flaming hell
I’d been feeling a little under the weather lately, and earlier this evening my neck started welting up. “But but but!” I thought, “I’m following this dratted gluten-free diet to see if that helps with this very problem! It was working! What happened? Aaaaugh!”
And then I realized: I’d had sushi with tempura bits and soy sauce over the weekend, both of which sneakily contain gluten. Plus there had been Worcestershire sauce as seasoning in multiple dishes the past few days, and wouldn’t you know it, the dratted stuff has wheat in it.
A rather large oversight and label-reading fail on my part, and now I’m paying for it. And believe me, I hope that those small amounts of gluten are what triggered this, and not some other thing that my doctor and I have not yet figured out.
