I was diagnosed with celiac disease about 1 week ago. This post may be lengthy and I do apologize but I am feeling confused, frustrated and lonely. Here is just a "brief" synopsis of my medical history. - I have been to a GI dr. multiple times for digestive problems. In the past few years, I have had a colonoscopy, CT scan, upper and lower GI series...
