    I was diagnosed with FMS years ago. I've changed to a gluten free diet just 3 weeks and almost all FMS symptoms are gone. Of course I have other celiac problems, but I thank you so much, this has helped so much, I have had celiac spue - for years now. It has been horrible. I figured it out by experimenting for food allergies. I am also allergic to beef. My health is so much better that my life is dramatically changed. Your website is wonderful. Thank you.

    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

      An early incubation and inoculation

      I forgot to add a status update on my health. I've had no issues. Been staying away from the foods I know cause GI problems: alcohol, peanuts and mayo. Stools are well-formed and of normal frequency. Consumption of gluten continues to have no effect.
