LOL! : ) Over the past couple of years I have noticed that I can't think of relatively simple words. I will be in the middle of talking to someone and I'll have to stop and try and remember a certain word. Often I even have to say "What's that word that means...?" It's CRAZY! I work for my dad and my uncle and...I just had a phone call that lasted about ...

Hi everyone! : ) As some of you wonderful posters know I am very new to this. I have been having strange symptoms for a year and a half, some longer. I have had lots of tests like everyone here, but no one mentioned being tested for Celiac. The PA I was seeing did say at one point to go off gluten for two weeks and if that didn't work to go dairy free...

Thanks for the information! I started gluten-free yesterday and am cutting out all dairy now as well. : )

Hi Melissa! I'm sorry you are going through this like the rest of us : ( It really stinks, but if we can get a Celiac DX I think we will feel so much better! I am just as new to this as you are-I only had my Celiac panel done the day before yesterday and I'm waiting on results. You should definitely ask for the full panel and also ask them to do vitamin/mineral...

Hi Looking For Answers! Sorry to ask you here, (I'm sorry OP!), I don't think I can PM you yet, but I had a question for you. In your signature section you mention adrenal fatigue. Would you mind telling me how you were diagnosed? I am only on my 2nd day gluten-free and still waiting for my panel results, but sooo many of my symptoms go with adrenal fatigue...

I'm so glad you posted this! I am still waiting on my Celiac panel, but am eating gluten-free anyway. I have been noticing this symptom for probably the past year, (or close to it), even more so in the past couple months. I was wondering what it was all about, but I figured it went along with my "fibromyalgia-like" issues with the muscle and tendon pain/aches...

Do you mind if I ask how your fibro was DX? And I hope you are feeling better! : )

Hi everyone : ) What was your major indicator that you might have Celiac (if there was one)? Since I have had symptoms for so long it has been in the back of my mind for a while that I could have it, but I haven't really done anything about it until now. I have had the symptoms but my major indicator was yesterday. I had pizza on Saturday night and yesteday...

I forgot to mention (is major forgetfulness a symptom of Celiac? LOL!) that I have recently had my thyroid tested and all is fine. I was so hoping it was that because I have so many symptoms that go along with hypothyroid. I'm praying for a positive Celiac panel...

Hello! Thank you so much for your reply! I am waiting on a call back so I can get a panel done. I pray I am Celiac (does that sound weird?) so I can get these crazy symptoms under control. Although I LOVE gluten filled foods, I can do without if it means feeling better! Thanks again, and I'll let everyone know how I make out. I think even if the test comes...

Thank you so much for your response and advice! I have been playing phone tag with my drs office this morning to try and get the panel done. I have requested a vitamin/mineral panel as well, thanks to the second posted who responded to me! They said I should look into B12. Wow, your symptoms sure sound like mine. I have almost every one you list below your...

Hi everyone! What a helpful site! I know you all can help me as I have read many of your informative posts. It started a year and a half ago. One night I was at the stove about to make dinner when suddenly I felt like I couldn't breathe. I tried breathing steam in the bathroom but decided to go to the ER. The dr dx me with "Bronchitis" and I went home...
