    Hello! I've been reading the boards here for the last few weeks and finally decided to sign up so I can chat with everybody! I haven't been offically diagnosed with Celiac yet and I am just so frustrated. I'm 23 and have felt sick for as long as I can remember, just nauseus and overall "yucky".
