Susie0402, in my rural county of Washington state, the vaccine has been in very short supply. I have not received any shots yet and by the time it's available to me herd immunity may already be in place.

Sorry for your loss. Sometimes life just backs up and dumps.

It's been a year since your celiac disease diagnosis. How are you feeling physically now? Are you able to stick to a gluten-free diet?

Blessings.

Trents,  I have eliminated gluten from my diet the day in March, 2020 that I was diagnosed.  My family and friends had been so excited about the availability of the vaccine that I signed up and I got the Pfizer.  Eating and food occasions are just not the same to me since the celiac diagnosis.  I'm not feeling great but it could be the stress of life.  I hope that you get the vaccine if that is what you want.  If you choose not to get the vaccine, I totally respect that.  Be well and thanks for checking on me.  Susie

I had my first Pfizer vaccine 2 days ago.  I was so impressed with how efficient the process was.  I felt great after.  That evening my arm became sore.  The next morning it was really sore, but felt similar to a flu shot.  Yesterday afternoon I developed a headache and last night I was exhausted and a bit nauseous.  I went to bed and this morning I feel a lot better.  My arm is now only sore when I touch it.  My headache is very mildly there, but I'm prone to headaches anyway.   

I'm really glad I got it...I'm looking forward to moving forward!

I've had both of my Pfizer vaccination shots and had nothing but a sore arm. I understand many have experienced aching,fever and fatigue, but don't let that stop you from getting vaccinated. I am now looking forward to seeing family who live 1000 miles away.

I had my second Moderna 2 weeks ago.  The first one gave me only a sore arm for a day or two.  The second was quite a bit worse, with headache, body aches, slight fever, extreme fatigue, a rash on my arm.  The first day was OK, and the second day was the worst.  The third and fourth days were very mild.  But all that is nothing compared to what covid might have been for me.  I've been gluten free just over a year now.  My fall flu shot was the first time I ever had unpleasant side effects from a flu shot, and I wondered if that  had anything to do with being relatively new to gluten free.  Maybe my immune system was happy to have some work to do again, LOL.

I also had both Pfizer vaccinations first one just a soreness for a day or two. The second one made me tired and useless. Feel great it's  been for weeks out. We did have trouble finding were to get it. I have a son that works as a delivery driver he got him yesterday. My other son just back from Kuwait after a year deployment they never vaccinated them before and now will get one tomorrow. They are very slow in Michigan.......

It seems my new healthy diet was the cause of these symptoms, I had a clear colonoscopy, thankfully. Now I know what it is I shall try to resume the healthy diet - the symptoms are annoying rather than painful, and I think it was doing me a lot of good,...

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      Stegosaurus, One size doesn't fit all. Most celiacs do fine with oats and other non-gluten cereal grains. Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources. I don't agree with the position that all celiacs should eliminate all grains from their diet. This line of thinking has been promoted for years...

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      While it's true that lifting heavy weights is a good bone builder, it may not be advisable for those with certain medical conditions like heart disease, arthritis and for the elderly or for those who don't have access to the equipment. Bone building drugs like Fosamax slow down the disposal of worn out osteoclasts (bone cells) and so help maintain/restore...

Now I know what it is I shall try to resume the healthy diet - the symptoms are annoying rather than painful, and I think it was doing me a lot of good, I certainly lost some pounds around the waistline (pity they piled back on again at Christmas!)

Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources. I don't agree with the position that all celiacs should eliminate all grains from their diet. This line of thinking has been promoted for years by books like Dangerous Grains which make the case on logic rather than actual real world data. Like many biological phenomenon, what would seem to be logical doesn't pan out to be true in the real world.  But if you are one of those in the minority of celiacs who cannot tolerate cereal grains at all, I'm glad that you were able to sort that out.
