The brain fog has been one of my worst symptoms. Is it possible that some other things that give me the fog when I'm eating gluten maybe don't if I'm not? I mean if my gut has healed, perhaps I can eat a spicy nutmeggy gluten free biscuit or bit of mulled wine and not go completely blank-brained for a day or two?

BTW it's actually kind of nice in its own way, but I can't hold a conversation or train of thought. And it lasts TOO long!

Could be other foods too, not necessarily gluten. im finding that even w/o gluten i still have other food sensitivities

Nutmeg is actually toxic, in the sense that it is very hard on your liver. I loved eating it for a while about a year ago, and looked it up hoping it had medicinal qualities like so many other herbs/spices. Found out the bad news....not good for you. Darnit. Sure tastes good on a spiced cider. Of course, I don't eat cider anymore anyway, so who needs the nutmeg!
