I have food intolerances... like this surprises me?? My doctor's sending me to a specialist and she said that this person probably isn't going to be able to help me and I'll have to travel further to get to the doctor I need... I don't care. I just want to feel better, and I'm glad we're figuring something out.

I'm glad that you're on the road to feeling better :) At least now you know what to focus on!

She didn't go into detail, but most likely it's Celiac's, which I've suspected all along.

Any tips on keeping a food journal? I'm thinking a small binder with loose leaf paper.

You might want to focus first on eliminating foods from your diet and go to a very basic diet for a few days. For example, chicken broth, easily digestible veggies and fruits, no nuts, no sugar, no wheat. Then start adding back foods one at a time. Write down what you eat, and your reaction to them. You might not have an immediate reaction, it might take a couple days if at all.
Just write what you eat, and how you feel after you eat.
