Another Cold...

I have been gluten free for nearly one year. I have always been healthy during the wintertime. I rarely ever got sick - with a cold/flu. This winter I have had three colds and the flu. I cannot ever remember being this sick. Has this happened to anyone else after going gluten-free? It seems that it should be the opposite - fewer illnesses after adopting gluten-free diet. Does anyone have any insight?

"I feel like I get sick more often than I ever did before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. Does celiac disease affect the immune system?

Celiac disease doesn’t affect the immune system at all. If anything, those with celiac disease have a stronger immune system."

      Can You Really Trust Gluten-Free Menus? What Every Celiac Needs to Know Before Eating Out

      Sorry, the question is if there is any insight as weather there would actually be gluten from the beer that would be in or on the chicken after cooking. We know alcohol evaporates off during cooking. My guess is the gluten would remain on the chicken skin, as gluten is not alcohol-soluble.

      I agree with @trents, could be worth having another scope. Oddly enough I'm in the same boat except my current odd sensation is near my appendix, I think I'll request a colonoscopy for peace of mind.
