Day 18 of Gluten-Free Diet

Once my blood work came back for Gluten intolerance as negative a couple weeks ago
I thought I was pretty much in the clear
Even though there is a 20% chance the results are false...

So, my doctor recommended doing the diet, to be sure.
I was told that after 7 days, I should feel a very small difference.
I figured... Why not?

At first, I pretty much thought it was a waste
but a challenge, none the less.
Day 7 came around, and I didn't really feel anything different.

But here I am at day 18...
2 weeks and 4 days.
I don't have a stomach ache everyday,
Any time I eat gluten, I don't feel well.
(Normally only finding out the item has gluten after I already have consumed it)
And I've been awake for 2 hours in the middle of the night.
I have a harder time falling asleep.
You see, sleep and exhaustion kind of took over my life.
But now, i'm a lighter sleeper, I guess...

Could it be a coincidence?
I mean, my life has taken some crazy turns lately!
Sure.
Let's just hope.

Now, I will try to sleep!
Goodnight world!
