I want to tell you, before I went Gluten Free, I was tested for Celiac and I was told in no uncertain terms I had no problems with gluten and I should not even consider giving it up. But…..

Hi Alexis,

I’m sorry to hear about all the health problems you are having, it sounds very debilitating. It’s really too bad that you feel you can not continue with your schooling for now.

With luck the gluten free diet will help you out. Remember to cut out all gluten for at least two months, or you won’t really know if gluten is a problem or not. It can take weeks for the effects of gluten to clear out of the body, for your body to heal, and for you to feel better. Even small amounts of gluten can set you back to the beginning.

Do please let us know how you’re doing. Good luck!

I have been having symptoms for almost a year now I have had to discontinue my schooling just from the sheer pain and everyday fear now of not knowing what has been wrong with my body. I ready your article and it literally brought tears to my eyes I am 22 years old I am on beta blockers(pulse 253), 50mg prilosec twice daily with carafate, also I am taking medicine to help me retain salt for days my blood pressure decides to go too low, I have not yet been tested for this but I am about to start a gluten free diet as well as get the testing done I pray that this is the cure and I can go back to ME not this…. your article has given me hope!
Thank you,
Alexis

After 1 hour or so I get terrible pain in the side and feel bloated.Even though I do not have a large appetite.It is so anoying as I use to love my food in breadcrumbs.I started beginning of last year after a terrible case of influnza that would not clear up. Also when my back went and for 8 months I had to go to the doctor every week….Still have problem with my foot.I do have the numbness and tingling in the hands and feet also….

I agree with everything you said – it is nearly the same as my own story.

It sounds like you are completely convinced that any gluten at all will be harmful to you, so I guess getting tested for celiac won’t really make a difference to your life, either way you will avoid it.

I do suggest to most people that they get tested though, to be sure they know what they’re dealing with. For those with celiac disease, it is important to avoid all gluten, not to go on just how you feel.

Anyhow Agnes, I’m glad you’ve found the key to good health. Cheers to you!
