I am so glad they figured it out. Your post is a good reminder for others to always mention trips out of the country or camping etc to their doctors when symptoms show up. Thanks for letting us know.

:) I hope you continue to improve and are soon feeling great.

Thank-You so much for your post. I was misdiagnosed for 3 years,(had symptoms for about 10 just though my stomach was sensitive) and had SO many of the same symptoms, finally in Sept.09 i had the news of all the foods I can not tolerate. SO this is still VERY frustrating for me, but at least I know I am not alone. I also have intolerance to dairy,egg,corn,tomatoe,soy. I think the withdrawl is one of the worst things for me, I just try to remember how sick I was from eating certain things. Any suggestions on other sites that may be of help. Nice to know I am not going crazy and not alone. Thank - You Bunches! :D Continued Good Health to You.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
