Thanks! It's nice to know I'm not the only one still having wacky problems I am actually keeping a food and supplement journal but I haven't been able to pinpoint anything as of yet.

Hi all, Let me say I'm new to this whole forum thing b/c I'm kind of a luddite. I was just dx with celiacs yesterday after sm. bowel biopsy came back positive. I've been truly gluten free (to the best of my knowledge) for about a week. Dizziness and bowel issues still remain but the most troubling thing is the sudden weight loss. I'm 5'3" and approx. 11...
