Hey everyone ,

Before I was gluten-free, I never had the best stamina. I've always been a runner, but a little slow. I cycle, but a little slow. Rollerblade... A little slow.

Anyway.

Week One of gluten free was great - my runs were actually getting better. But, like most, I got sicker before I got better. My internist said 'no' to exercise, as I dropped to an exceedingly low weight - and for awhile, I couldn't really move, anyway.

I look forward to the day that I can exercise once again, even if I realize it might be slow and steady. I am curious whether anyone has experienced improvement in their stamina or likewise? I am wondering now, that perhaps my mystery illness was misguiding me into thinking that I was a sub-par athlete.

I never used to be capable of much physical activity at all. Now I walk, bike and lift weights nearly everyday.

thanks for your reply!

i was quite active before hand, so i am hoping that this will improve everything even more so.

My stamina and speed have definitively improved. The only exception is when I've been glutened, then I'm a noodle! I've learned not to exercise other than maybe take a leisurely walk when I've recently been glutened, it just makes me feel worse. But other than that, oh yeah. I've improved a lot. I hope you will too!

I find I have bundles more energy at the gym.. longer workouts, more efficient.. and much better stamina.

It's great!!

I am so shocked at how much more stamina/endurance I have now.

For me, nearly a year gluten-free I still have problems with stamina. I try to do 30 minutes of advanced tae-bo every morning but some days I can't manage 15 minutes. I just have no energy at all.

More worrying, lately I have noticed my co-ordination is haywire. This is new.

Perhaps my problem is due to my Gilbert's Syndrome. No idea.

Hope you have better luck!!

Yvonne

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—

      @GlorietaKaro, your respiratory reactions to gluten make me wonder if there might also be an allergic (anaphylaxis) component at work here.
