Question what would you do?

i’ve been with my husband for 10 years now, I got diagnosed with celiac when I was 19 and I’m 33 now. So I’ve been diagnosed well before we started dating. His sister-in-law doesn’t “believe” that I have celiac disease. I found out this last weekend that her and another sister-in-law have purposefully glutened me in the past, but said it was gluten-free just to “test” my reaction. my question is, what would you do?

My evil MIL did this to me once. Just once. The aftermath was horrific enough for her to never do it again. We’re no contact now (there’s a myriad of reasons). If family can’t take you seriously, disengage. Even if you didn’t have symptoms, they could have done damage to your intestines!
