Oh wow, good call. I've been so concerned with taking whole food supplements that I forgot all about the digestive and absorption issues! *face palm* Well, I'll be shopping at work tomorrow Thanks everyone, especially you Raven....can't tell you how much I love this forum!

Hi Raven....I actually had a conversation with a few people at work about that. I can't imagine having actual withdrawal symptoms if I wasn't allergic or intolerant. OK, so you just made up my mind...I'll give the diet at least another month. Thank you! I am supplementing with 4500iu of vitamin d and a mega dose b complex. You guys rock!

Hi mushroom! I definitely went through withdrawal, about a week after I stopped eating gluten. I've suffered withdrawal before, when I came off a certain medication, and my body has a very specific process. Me "cheating" on the diet was just to see if I noticed any reaction to the gluten.

Hey Cass!! I definitely have Hashimoto's. We're doing another ultrasound in 3 months to see if the nodules on my thyroid have gotten any bigger (at 10 mm she's going to biopsy...I'm only at 6.5 now). I'm on Armour Thyroid 30mg (I was at 15mg but we raised the dosage last month because of how crappy I feel and my physical symptoms). I'm going for new...

That, along with my known wheat sensitivity, was enough for me to insist on the test. I was hoping that a gluten-free diet would lessen all of my symptoms, but so far no improvements.

Hi, thanks so much for the response! And thank you to the Mod for the speedy post! A doctor told me years and years ago that I had a sensitivity to wheat. I have been on a low carb diet twice and felt SO much better - more energy, sharper mentally, clearer skin, etc. Over the past seven months, my health has decreased dramatically. Most significantly...

Hi everyone! I'm a 25yr old female who has recently been diagnosed with Hashimoto's. I also have PCOS. For the past 6 months, I have felt terrible... I'm sure I don't have to describe it to you guys. I was tested for Celiac right after Christmas. I've been having a ton of problems with my PCP...she missed an appointment a week ago and hasn't gotten...
