Update on my health

Hey guys, 
I was able to go see my hepatologist on Friday and she informed me that the slight elevation of my bilirubin is due to a common disease called "Gilberts Disease". 
I am thrilled to hear that this does not mean I have a problem with my liver or anything else for that 
matter. All of my tests came back normal and I am HEALTHY. 

Now I just need to get rid of these muscle twitches that are now plaguing me. I heard that this is common in people who have celiacs disease and also in those who have low magnesium levels. 
Just last weekend I went to the health food store and got myself a magnesium supplement powder 
and hoping that will take care of my muscle twitches permanently. 

On another happy note, while I have been dealing with these health issues, I have also been able to try a lot of new gluten free food that will be uploaded unto the blog very soon. BE ON THE LOOK OUT! 

How has everyone been doing?. 
I'd love to hear from you, please leave a comment below.

*UDATE: The muscle twitches turned out to be what is called, Benign facilitation syndrome, where the muscles twitch when relaxed and do not twitch when active. Nothing to worry about but it is really, really annoying.*
