    Welcome Rickscuba!! Yes, I can definitely relate to the cracked heals issue. I suffered from terrible rough and cracking skin all over my feet(not just limited to my heals) Of main concern was the dry cracking on my toes. In fact, the cracks went so deep(almost to my bone) that I developed ulcers on my toes, which led to infection, which in turn led to amputation...

    I am happy for you. Your feelings are similar to those which I had 2 months ago. I went 30+ years being misdiagnosed and I don't have much faith in the medical system. In fact, it was my wife, who spent countless hours researching my symptoms online; she was the one who diagnosed my celiac-NOT A DOCTOR!! Yes, I had the same feelings you did as well. Some...

    I, like you, suffered from chronic constip. Usually only went one time a week and that was usually diarrhea. Chronic stomach issues for 30+ years and none of my doctors EVER suggested gluten issues/celiac disease!!!. I drank Pepto-Bismol and Immodium AD regularly to deal with my symptoms. After observing all my symptoms, my wife concluded I was gluten intolerant...

    Welcome SusieQ. The same thing happens to me within an hour or 2 after I accidentally consume gluten(achy joints, grumpy mood, brain fog, stomach issues)-Sometimes the side effects can last a few days from my personal experience but they do eventually go away and I get back to normal again. I am glad to see someone learning about gluten intolerance at such...

    Hey Jessica. Sounds like the same type of brainfog that I experienced for many years, except mine was all the time. Almost got fired from work as a result(I am in telephone customer service so when you forget what you are talking about with a customer they are much less forgiving than friends would be-LOL!!) My brain fog subsided within 48-72 hours of going...

    Any body have experience with chewing gum/bubble gum. Please let me know which ones you have had problems with, and which ones you have found to be gluten free. Thanks, Keith

    Yes, getting glutened after being gluten-free for a while is no fun. I have only bee gluten-free for 5 weeks or so. After 3 weeks of going gluten-free, i got accidentally glutened and it knocked me down flat on my back for 48-72 hours. Had to just sleep it off. To me it was a good reminder that gluten really is like poison to my system, and that incident...

I'll send you an update about Jerry's kids and you can fill me in on the details and findings of your testing......."mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied, that leaves only me to blame cuz...

    I am the only one in my family that has been diagnosed with Celiac. I am 99.9% positive that others in my family do have gluten intolerance since they still have the same symptoms as I had before going gluten-free. My father has most all of the symptoms that I had when I was eating gluten(bloating, IBS,chronic fatigue,achy joints,etc), but to date he has...

    I have been gluten-free for about 5 weeks. I have lost 20-25 lbs so far. But most importantly, my stomach bloating has subsided. My pants are falling down!!!! lol. Still wearing my 46 waist pants, only because I have not been shopping yet. Gonna wait and see how much I lose before I buy new clothes. If I went shopping today looks like I would fit in a 42...

    WOW!!!! Thanks to all of you who can speak freely and candidly about the dark secrets of depression. No one(including myself) has ever been able to put a finger on my depression or help with the desparate feelings. I have seen several psychiatrist over the last 15 years and had several changes in anti-depressant medication, and nothing has come near to changing...

    Hi! Saw one of your posts re: your wife and her not feeling so well lately. I just thought I'd ask: has there been construction around her lately? A lot of construction materials contain gluten, and if the dust (like drywall or sawdust from plywood) is in the air, it's often in high enough concentration to be breathed in, ingested a bit, and give her a reaction. Just thought I'd...

    I suffered with celiac for at least 30 years remembering symptoms as far back as early teens. I was diagnosed by my wife and have been gluten free for 4 weeks. My symptoms were many: chronic fatigue, irratable bowel synd., depression, neuropathy in feet, restless leg syndrome, shooting pains in body, crippling pains in knees and hips, etc. etc. Classic text...

    Now that i am gluten-free, I am more intrested in my overall health. I want to quit smoking cigarettes. i am a heavy smoker and in the past i have used the nicotine patch and nicotine gum. i prefer to use the gum, since last time i had bad side effects from the patch(hives and nausea). I feel like i need a nicotine replacement product because i am not ready...

    Hang in their Sheri. I feel your pain. Had it for decades. Even though we can't be together everyday and everynite, you are still in my heart. It does not seem fair that you diagnosed me, and after 4 weeks my body and mind have been transformed and my symptoms have disappeared. On the other hand, it seems we have switch bodies(and minds). Now it seems that...

    I am only 4 weeks gluten-free and have had a miraculous turn-around in my physical and mental symptoms. I am really on "Top of the World", after suffering for over 30 years with a myriad of symptoms of gluten intolerance. I have several family members(parents, aunts and uncles, cousins and siblings that have many of the same symptoms which I have dealt with...

    Interesting topic. I am only 4 weeks gluten-free, but many of my physical and mental problems have vanished. I have spent the last 3 weeks looking for symptoms I had growing up to see just how long this disease has been present in my life. Your blog sparked my memory again. As a child even into early adulthood I used to get multiple mouth ulcers(sometimes...

    Welcome!!! You are in the right place for help and guidance. i am a newbie as well. i have been gluten-free for about 4 weeks now and it is a wonderful change. EVERYTHING in my body and mind feels better. Actually, i started feeling much better in only 24-48 hours(i am not sure if that is normal) of being gluten-free. My favorite store so far has been Trader...

    Thank you honey. I love you too. Thanks for putting up with me all these years, and being persistant, never giving up in your search for what was REALLY wrong with me. I owe you my life. Love, Me

    Thank you to everyone who responded to my questions about thyroid and depression issues and medications. I will definitely speak with my healthcare providers before making a decision to get off my meds. This is kinda a catch 22 though, because I do not have faith in these doctors who have seen me for my various ailments including thyroid and depression. I...

    I have been gluten free now for 3 weeks and I am feeling wonderful, better than I have felt in decades. Aches and pains have diminished. Brain fog has lifted and I feel like a different person. I was diagnosed with hyper thyroid about 8 months ago(before I found out that I suffered from celiac), and am on thyroid medication. Additionally, I have suffered...

    Thanks to everyone for posting their experience with Brain fog, anxiety, depression, confusion. I, like you Chad am new to the Gluten free family. Been gluten-free for going on 3 weeks. I too, have suffered from chronic severe depression, anxiety, confusion, to the point that menial tasks seemed impossible, especially if that task required deep thought. My...

    I cannot say I have heard of this however, I have personal experience with the subject. I was diagnosed with Ramsey Hunt Syndrome about 6 years ago. Without a doubt was the most painful thing I have ever endured in my life. The left side of my face went paralyzed and entire face drooped. It did get somewhat better but left side of face is still paralyzed...
