A little bit about Me

Hi, my name is Tanner. I go to Shiloh Christian School, and will be going into the 11 grade. I love my school and am so happy to say that I am a Shiloh Saint. I wanted to start this blog in order to just share some things that I have learned about my health. So first I want to tell you about my wheat allergy. Toward the end of my eighth grade year I started to have real bad stomach problems. So my mom took me to my doctor where they tested for allergies. Later that week we found out that I have to start a gluten free diet. Now for me and my family we wondered why I was in the eighth grade and just now finding out that I had this allergy. Changing my diet was tough but I have learned that I like the gluten free food better than I did the food with gluten in it. I will post some of my favorite recipes later but now I want to share something that is new to me. I have what is called Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. This is also what I refer to as CVS. I found out about this in November and it continues to happen every four weeks. The thing that gives me comfort is that I have a great team of doctors that are helping me. I want to let people know about this and I hope that maybe what I have gone through can help others out there that have CVS, or a wheat allergy.
