    I just wanted to thank the original poster of this thread. After reading this I will be calling my Dr in the morning. I thought hair loss, fatigue and weird vision were something that will eventually go away. (I have been gluten-free since last Aug) But none of them have.

    Thanks Skylark. I mentioned early menopause to my Dr and she doesnt think so. I just wish I was never sick again.

    I was born in the UK and grew up in NZ. I looked at the soy allergy you posted and was surprised that that is a lot of what I have. Going to call my Dr on Monday and ask about being tested. Thanks!

    Hello, I am now on day 86 of being gluten-free and its been going ok. I have my up and down days, but I hear thats normal. The past few days I have not been feeling well. I dont know whether its celiac related or im just getting sick. I just spoke with my gastro (his assistant) she said it doesnt sound like anything celiac but she would ask him when...

    Oh man. I will call their Dr 2moro and see what they say. They are terrified of having blood drawn.

    Thank you. I really appreciate ANY and ALL help. I do live with my husband and 2 children (5 & 8). I am the only one living gluten-free. I was told to test them both, but dont see a need at this point. If they start showing symptoms then I definately will.

    Yes, I have had a lot of my symptoms go away in the past 4 weeks. I guess I just want them ALL gone, yesterday.

    Thank you!! I am taking 2000iu's a day of Vitamin D. A test showed VERY low levels before all this started. I will call my Dr on Monday.

    Phew! I was beginning to wonder if I was getting gluten, but couldnt figure out how. I am writing down everything I eat. To help with possible contamination. I email or call on anything new I eat. Im so worried about getting sick again. I also have canker sores in my mouth, more on my tongue and my teeth are really sensitive. Is this also normal...

    This can affect your teeth? Oh my. I am newly diagnosed and the last few weeks I am noticing my teeth are VERY sensitive. I have numbness in my hands and feet. Its driving me crazy! I really hope this is also part of it and it goes away. My body literally 'crashed' the end of June (long story) and since being on a gluten-free diet for 4 weeks I am already...

    ....to still have symptoms after following the gluten free diet for 4 weeks? I am still getting numbness in my hands and feet and headaches. Compared to what I had 4 weeks ago, its lovely. Thanks for any information. -Michelle

    Finally got my test results back. All came out negative (which she thought they might). She said that since I am feeling much better following the celiac diet, that no more testing is needed. She said to call her if anything changes. Thanks for your support.

    I am also new to this diet. I dont have a definate diagnoses yet, but im pretty sure it is my issue. I cook for my kids, food I cannot eat. Its tough. I have yet to go out to a restaurant, dreading that. I feel like I have no one who understands. I am so glad to have found this forum.

    I was also wondering this very thing. Except im only 3 weeks out. I do feel better, but still getting numb/tingling hands and feet, headaches and not feeling well.
  22. KiwiBrit
    I still dont have my test results. They are now telling me Friday. I do have a question. I did a search here and can't really see anything recent on this. I hope its ok to ask here. My Dr said it was ok for me to start eating dairy again. I had stopped 4 weeks ago to help me heal. So I started with one slice of cheese (Walmart white cheese, packaged...

    I never even considered other things to be an issue. Oh my. Guess I really need to read up!

    I emailed a company yesterday about there hot dogs. The package said gluten-free, but I have had issues with cross contaminaion.

This was there reply: Hi Michelle , Thank you for your email our franks are gluten free and no contamination of other things. Regards~ Andrea...
