I suspect that if we translate this from "man-speak" into woman's English, this is the equal of "You are such a huge part of my life.  I would do anything for you-- and if that means that we go gluten-free because you need that, I would SO do that without a backward glance.  No question."

Guys so seldom think to do this full translation when we're stressed and could really use it.  So what is really their hearts being in the right place comes out as "Why worry?  I've got the solution right here.  Easy."   :grouphug:

:yes:

Can you tell him that you appreciate his support but are really overwhelmed, and the "no big deal" feels dismissive whether he means it that way or not?

What a lot to go through. I'm so sorry, S&S. Wishing you solid and good answers and options.

Kind of feeling better.They upped my one set of pills, which seems to be working well.

They think it must just be ibs because there is nothing else there. Trying a new medicine for IBS, but the side effects are awful. Dry eyes,dry mouth,etc. I'm not sure if the upset tummy is worse than that. I have one that I can slip under my tongue if I need it in a clutch, so I may just stick to that.
