well... so much for feeling better. the army randomly decides now that im feeling good they want to take care of me, By the way army is really bad for taking care of medical problems apparently, anyways they want to send me to bagram now to do the colonoscopy, they told me this 3 days ago, so i was like oh crap i better start eatin gluten again so it comes...

Well guys just another update on whats going on in case anyone was curious. First of all, thank you all SOOOOO much for the support, I couldn't thank you guys enough for all the advice and answers you have given me. I have never felt this good in my life, I am constantly full of energy and this brain fog seems like it is going away, I am going to the gym...

Just wanted to let you guys know, its super weird to be able to eat a sandwich and not get sick from it haha. Like I said before my aunt sent me a bunch of gluten free stuff, she sent me gluten free bread, and peanut butter and jelly, so I have been makin sandwiches over here, and im so used to being sick after eating bread, it just doesn't seem normal to...

I have 2 years left on this contract, I was already planning on getting out after the 2 years even before this celiac problem kicked in, so I think they will more than likely let me finish my contract then get an honorable discharge.Like you said about the marine, it is definately hard to hide having celiac disease haha...But anyways I just wanted to do one...

My aunt has been sending me gluten free packages, like gluten free bread,peanut butter and jelly, just stuff like that, and I have bene eating salads, and meats mainly , I only have a month left here in afghanistan so im not to far away from home, I just really want this brain fog to go away it sucks! Everything else feels amazing, I have never felt so good...

Ok so here is an update on what has been going on, I was denied to go to germany for medical attention, I went to the doctors here at the FOB Im staying at , they wanted me to go to germany because there was nothing they can do for me here, I waited about a week for my chain of command to deny me.. So I decided to try going gluten free myself, I have been...

Well guys thanks so much for the concern and all the replies, I went to the medic today and sounds like I will be going to germany in 3-5 days or so , im not sure the wording for it but they are going to be putting a camera inside my stomach to check some things out. I am going to continue eating gluten , seems like thats what everyone is saying to do so...

Thanks guys for all the replies,im going to the medic today, i had a lot of blood drawn a couple weeks ago, hopefully they tested for celiac disease, I doubt they did though.. Hopefully I can get to the bottom of this and figure it all out, because this really sucks!

Thanks for the reply, I was home on Leave and went to a civilian hospital actually, and they thought I had the parasite called guaradia, or however its spelled. I was on antibiotics for 2 weeks for it and nothing happened. So I am assuming its either intolerant to gluten or the celiac disease, because I have had this problem for about 5 years now, but its...

Hi... I have been doing a lot of research lately on celiac disease.. I havent been officially diagnosed with it but I am currently in afghanistan with only 2 months left of the deployment. For the last 5 years my stomach has been super sensitive to food and never really thought about why. 2 years ago my cousin found out he was intolerant to gluten and suggested...
