I have the same issue and also have 3 kids and work. I got my thyroid checked, and the TSH was a little out of range. Thyroid issues are tied to celiac. Mine is under-active/hypo, which makes it hard to lose weight. I have not gone to the doc yet but will in a few weeks and hope to get some medicine. Take the labs first thing in the morning while fasting...

WARNING - if you get the Red Curry (or anything else with rice) at Doc Chey's - get white rice. Their brown rice contains gluten. I learned this the hard way.

I am almost sure the one in Atlanta is ok too, but be sure you ask (post back if they say it's not so I can grill my people again. I hadn't seen the gluten-free markers at EarthFare! That's great - I will have to go back. I am always in the store, thinking, why don't they just put all the gluten-free stuff together. That would make sense. If someone is just...

I had never heard of functional medicine or DOs until lately, but the DO I just saw was right on the nose with everything. You can find doctors at www.functionalmedicine...

I get pain on the left when breathing in sometimes too, bottom of the rib cage. I haven't had any pain relating to the breast bone though. I have had injuries that refuse to heal, likely because of the malabsorption. Probably on my body's "to do" list once all the little villi are happy. Haha, "To do:" 1. Have digestive system act normal, whatever that...

These are the same symptoms I have, and I had positive blood work. Still two more weeks till I get a definitive diagnose, but I definitely think these can be symptoms.

Rectal Bleeding
julie5914 replied to Lesliean's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I get that sometimes, and it is usally an anal fissure (awful term, I know). They usually come from bouts of constipation and can be very painful because that is a hard place for them to heal and a very sensitive place, obviously. Because it is bright red and on the tissue, it is not a big deal health-wise, but if it is recurring and painful you may want...
