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."

      Stomach hurts with movement

      Your response on this matter is what I expect. You’ve had a similar episode years ago, but this one is lasting longer!

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?
