Well I have been gluten free now for almost 3 weeks and WOW. I just noted today that I have 200% more energy than I had. My husband is in AWE of the way I feel. My daughter stated "I have a new mom". I have not felt this good in 10 years. I was a Jazzercise instructor until 2 months ago when my muscles could do no more but let me tell you as soon as vitamin levels are raised I am going back to teaching because I gotta use up this extra energy. See all these year's I attributed my fatigue to my autoimmune liver disease PBC but I think Celiac was kicking in and finally just recently caught up with me. I have been confirmed celiac disease with blood and biopsy. My neuro symtoms are also leveling out but still somewhat there. SOmething else that is kinda of gross is Bowel movements are not pale and yellow anymore but normal looking. Again thos was thought to be from liver disease as well. The info on this site has been so heplful and I read the posts to get info also and it has been very useful. Thank you all so much.

I am glad to hear that you are doing so well. Be patient with the neuro stuff that can take some time to resolve. I would suggest some sublingual B12 if you are not taking it already. It will help the nerves fire better and could help speed the healing process a bit.

That's really great! Don't be worried if you have the occasional 'off' day. You were sick for a long time and it'll take a long time to heal.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
