Muscle Weakness, Aches And Pains?

[Las]

I've been Celiac diagnosed since November 2011, and doing much better since Gluten free! But I have been seriously in pain in my joints, especially in my Knees and hips, but all joints ache and I am very stiff in joints also. Lately I can't get up from kneeling without help (I'm only early 50's).

Though I have been warned about possible dairy or lactose intolerance, I figured I could just take a 'dairy ease' pill if it bothered me... so I continued to eat dairy... until now. I've been researching it further and think it might be the dairy????? Anyone else experienced with this??? Any advice or help out there??

Thanks in advance!

If you have casein intolerance, like I do, you just have to avoid it like gluten. It's a different issue from lactose intolerance, and the pills won't help. There can be many different causes of joint pain, including arthritis. Other autoimmune diseases are associated with celiac. Other food sensitivities can be involved. I do suggest testing for additional food sensitivities, if you can.
