Q: When you do an elimination diet is there a "delay" in your stomach getting better? It took me over a month off the foods for my joint pain to subside, but I am still getting stomach aches nearly every day, usually right after I eat. But it doesn't seem to matter much what I eat that I can tell, it happens after every meal of a reasonable size. I've been totally free of intolerant foods since early September...does it just take a while for the stomach to heal or am I missing something?
