Hi Danny,

It is probably a bit different for everyone. For me, the worst of the symptoms last 3 weeks after ingesting gluten, and clear completely after 8 weeks. I’m almost back to normal in three or four weeks, but it takes that long to get back to 100%.

When I first cut out gluten, I noticed a huge improvement after about three weeks.

It may take longer for some people. It does sound like you’re on the right track though, so keep it up!

Just wondering how long did it take for your memory to start improving and reach optimal levels after you cut out Gluten?

I have been diagnosed with narcolepsy (sleep disorder), been suffering from memory problems, short, long, anything and eveything you can think of.

I have been off gluten for about 2 weeks, noticeable improvement in day time sleepiness/fatigue, still suffering from interupted sleept patterns and yet to achieve noticeable improvments on the neorological side of things (memory amonst other things).

Cheers,

Danny

Hey John,

You’ve made the first important step of realizing there is a problem, and the second important step of looking for answers and trying to find out the cause.

And better to figure it out in your twenties than your forties, I can tell you that! From my perspective, yes, I wish my late teens and early twenties had been more productive and I had been better able to take advantage of opportunities that came my way. But then again, the next 25 years of my life has been very much about being productive and surfing great opportunities.

You’re on the right track. Keep looking forward 🙂 !

I actually have exactly the same concerns right now – sometimes I feel like I’m going senile judging by some of the things I do: forgetting a thought I just came up with, forgetting an idea in the middle of a conversation, and just doing absolutely senseless things when I would have never done it in the past. I’m sometimes not able to carry out a plan with forgetting some part of it, and I often have to do something many, many times because I make the same mistake. Making the realization that I have a problem (though only a few weeks ago did I think it might be diet related) was a tremendous step, and it was painful at first to know this as I, too, have just entered my twenties. I’ve always been told I’m smart, so I thought I can’t possibly have an issue with my mind; and now, no course of action is going to bring back the time lost as a result of my neglect. Looking back, this kind of impairment has really damaged my life.

On a positive note, I will be off gluten (and perhaps other things) for a while. I’ll remember (hopefully =]) to post back, especially if I get better. Hopefully it won’t be too late for me after years of dietary neglect, and your story gives me the inspiration I need.

Thanks and all the best,
John
