I agree with you Corey, the mental symptoms are the worst and that’s what really convinced me to kick gluten. It can ruin your life, not unlike drugs, come to think of it. And then once gluten brings you down, its much harder to find the energy to get gluten out of your system and out of your house.

Thank you so much for your support and advice. We agree with all your comments/views on the kids. I am looking forward to having this test behind me. I will wait it out another week or two based on my docs recommendation. But, I am really amazed how little most docs know about celiac and gluten intolerance.

For anyone else out there going through this….The worst part is not the aching joints or the stomach pain. It is the moodiness, short temper and general depression. I really didn’t realize I had any of these conditions until I spent six months with no gluten and really was a happier person. Hopefully I can confirm this in a couple weeks. (I only started this diet due to asthma that appeared out of nowhere at age 40). Sometimes it is hard to be 100 percent sure what is the cause of problems because they appear so slowly and leave just as slowly. I will keep you posted.
Corey
