    I have Rheumatoid arthritis along with Ankylosing spondylitis and degenerative joint disease. My doctors told me after I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease that it explained why I had the other problems. So there is an association between Celiac and other diseases that a good doctor will see. Being gluten free does help with the pain and stiffness form the...

    I had recurring Iritis since I was 14 years old. Basically I would get the infection about every 4-5 years and it would take about 1-2 years to clear up. I have not had a single infection since I went gluten free. When I was diagnosed I was at the time being treated for an Iritis infection. When I told the ophthalmologist that I had been diagnosed with Celiac...

    April, Your symptoms sound just like mine. The mouth sores and nasal sores went away after I went gluten free and other then one time in the last fifteen years I have been free of them. As far as the eczema behind the ears I have never been able to get rid of it completely. I have had allergy tests and I am allergic to so much it makes it hard to find products...

    I have similar problems with shampoos. I have to check to make sure they are free of gluten contain products. Oats are very common in shampoos and conditioners and wheat is also often used. I get a burning itch and sores and scabs that burn even more when I wash my hair. I seem to get it to clear up but after a while it comes back. I have found that it is...

    I think I was labeled as a hypochondriac and actually had a doctor tell me that all my problems were just in my head. So I can understand how you felt when the doctors thought you were crazy. But once I found doctors that actually listened to me and were willing to work with me it opened the eyes of the doctors who thought I was just making every thing up...

    I know what you mean about it feeling worse then a broken bone. I have had several broken bones and none of them even came close to the pain of the swollen knee I had. And it took them three months to find out what they thought it was. I really feel that they never found out what I really had and made me so sick and eventually lead me to becoming disabled...

    By Reading through this it sounds a lot like problems I have. It all started in August of 1999 when I had my first major Asthma Attack. I was put on Asthma medicine and then on anti-biotics. Two days after going off the anti-biotics I woke with my left knee double in size. I spent three months being tested and probed for every thing in the books and the pain...

    This is really interesting that you feel more depressed after eating chocolate. I did an internet search about chocolate+depression and could not get any clear answer, some articles said it could happen while others said that chocolate helped people with depression. A lot of contradiction out there. One article did say that they felt it was the sugar that...

    Meline, I am glad that your Nausea has finally gone away. Before I was diagnosed I jokingly called my nausea morning sickness, because the first thing I would have to do when I woke up was to throw up. I could not eat anything for several hours after I got up or it would just come back up. This was a daily thing. It got much worse when I was put on prescription...

    To go along with the magnesium my doctor told me to take a combination. Calcium with vitamin D, Zinc, Copper and Magnesium. So I use a complex that has all of these along with some others.

    I also have sacroilitis and Spondylitis the latter I was told was connected to the celiac disease ( the doctor said that is why I developed it when it is not something in my family history) which both cause tail bone pain that seems to come and go as the inflammation comes and goes. Mine has not been reduced by being on the gluten free diet. I think because...
