I was diagnosed 2/12/07 and went gluten free a year ago today. I could NEVER have done it without you wonderful people. Truly, you all were lifesavers.

I had many tests, a few mistakes along the way and a did a lot of learning. I'm very happy that I am basically healthy and that there is nothing else (major) wrong with me and my health. I think I dodged other celiac bullets, including diabetes and thyroid problems. I am eating much better than I did before-- no trans fats, no high-fructose corn syrup, few empty carbs. I still haven't lost the weight that I gained during the two years when my celiac became active (25 pounds) but I have faith that I will eventually.

Eating is easy except for eating out and at business functions. I'm so glad I can cook and that there are many gluten-free things available. My hope is that celiac becomes more well known, that doctors can diagnose it more accurately and that all of us can live healthily ever after.

Congratulations on a successful, healthy year! :D

My son will hit his 3 year mark March 13.

7 years for me in October. I don't even remember what poptarts tasted like - just that I loved them! :P

It's all worth it to feel good!

Happy Anniversary, it is awesome you are feeling so good :)

I know how happy I was when I started to feel good again, it is like becoming a whole new person. I think I got a whole new attitude and look on like as well.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
