Chronic Fatigue

Not know if this is asthma related (my lungs are clear) but for the longest time I have suffered with constant fatigue. It's worse in the winter----I want to sleep all the time and I am yawning more times than not these days, except lately I've been gasping whenever I yawn. No other breathing problems right now. This can't be normal or is it? I don't know what's normal for me anymore. Any other Celiac asthma patients suffer from this?

<raising hand>!!! I literally have been going to doctors for TWENTY YEARS complaining that SOMETHING had to be wrong with me. I could literally sleep 24/7 if I had the opportunity. Of course they found nothing, told me I was depressed and put me on meds and sent me on my way. It all fell into place when I insisted on being tested for Celiac and it came back positive. I don't have asthma though.

I've only been gluten-free 9 weeks (had a couple of mishaps in there though) and I can already tell I'm not as sleepy as I usually am. I'm not to where I'd like to be, but I definitely see an improvement. I'm hoping it gradually gets better. I definitely feel like I think more clearly now too.

How long have you been gluten free?

There is a direct link between deficiency in Vitamin D and asthma....as well as fatigue when deficient also. I would have your vitamin D levels checked. Also during the winter is your lowest level of Vitamin D due to the sun's lack of strength.

I have been gluten-free for 2-3 weeks. Well, not completely gluten-free during this time as I cheat sometimes but mostly gluten-free.

If you have celiac, you so not want to cheat EVER. :blink:

This may be why you have continuing fatigue and asthma symptoms.

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
