      It's on this site.  Click in my name.  Look for the pull down menu that says "Activities" and chose "blog".  Oh, there's the link!     You can send personal messages through this site, too, if you like.

      It's part of the malabsorption that occurs with Celiac Disease.  Yes, I lost weight, too.  We can use up our B vitamins quickly when we're ill.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost.  Supplementing can help ensure we're getting the essential vitamins and minerals our body needs to function well.  Many vitamins can be low in the newly diagnosed.  Vitamin D can also be low.  Minerals like iron and magnesium can be low, too.  You'll feel better once you restore the nutrients.

      Thank-you I will ask the doctor about this.  This is all new to me I'm feeling ill every day and losing weight is this part of coeliac?

      Thank you so much for your response kitty that is helpful to hold in mind. I am also doing a review on lived experiences of coeliac disease so your blog would be incredibly valuable for me to review, please can I have the link to it?

      i'd just like to preface this by saying i have an extremely supportive and talented boyfriend who is amazing at cooking, and he's willing to go gluten free with me. i am much more privileged than a lot of coeliacs for this reason. it's just so depressing though. i turned 18 in april and was basically diagnosed via a blood test in february. i had an endoscopy two days ago, got put to sleep, and woke up to the doctor immediately telling me i absolutely have it. what lovely news. i tried to prepare mentally before the endoscopy after my gp said he was 95% sure i had it, but it's just so hard finally going on this diet and saying goodbye to so many of my favourite foods. so hard watching others eat maccas and stuff knowing it's like poison to me when it smells. so. fking. good. i wish i was diagnosed as a toddler so i never remembered eating gluten. just had to vent.
