I went gluten free about 3.5 weeks ago. Since that time I seem to being having some problems with low blood sugar. I have had these episodes in the past, but they seem worse and more frequent since removing gluten from my diet. If I don't eat frequently or first thing in the morning, I get very weak and feel like I could pass out. Has anyone experienced anything like this when removing gluten?

That's actually gotten *better* for me since cutting gluten out. What changes have you made, specifically? What are you eating, now? You may have accidentally cut out some nutrient you need.
Diagnosed celiac December 2012 (bloodwork + endoscopy). Gluten-free since.

I deal with it when i forget to eat. Then i eat something high in protien (peanut butter or cheese normally) and have to sit down for a while. My symptoms are the jitters really bad and lightheadness. It goes away once i eat something.
