  1. That's good that they work with you like that. I guess I just need to work that out where I am at.
  2. Anyone else have trouble with work because of symptoms with celiac? I have had a bad week of getting gluten by accident and I have been so tired all week. I just started working full-time about 6 months ago and it seems like it is taking a lot out of me. I was working 30 hours a week and went to 40 hours now. I'm coming home at 6 pm and taking naps. ...
  3. That's very helpful especially for those of us in the beginning stages! I have had a bad week of accidents so I am going to get more strict! Thanks for the information.
  4. I have those symptoms also, ataxia, double vision, dizzy, confused, can't think, drop things, etc. I guess I should call my doctor and find out exactly what they tested. But my allergist told me that both the antibodies were highly elevated and I tested positive in both areas. So I guess I should find out what that means! He diagnosed me as celiac and...
  5. Yes, I can relate to all of that! Ataxia fully describes what I go through. I can't walk or move my arms without an extreme amount of concentration. I'm dizzy, foggy headed, can't think straight and get confused. Alot of times a reaction starts with tingling, either feet and legs or lips and face. Then I notice I am dropping things and running into...
  6. Is there anyone here who has neurological symptoms when eating gluten?
  7. Oh wow, I have had similiar things happen to me. I was afraid to eat for awhile and lost weight and my doctor really got onto me about it! I think that snapped me out of it some but I still think food is evil lol. I had wondered if anyone else goes through this too. I really need to be able to talk with others with celiac since no one around me seems...
  8. I know how you are feeling. I have been on the diet again now for a few months. After being told I don't have celiac to now finding a good doctor who has diagnosed me with celiac. I feel great when I am on the diet. But it gets old when people bring food into work, or everyone wants to go out to eat, or you go to a wedding and there is everything you...
  9. Thanks Kareng, those sites were really helpful!
  10. Thanks, Lisa, those are a huge help! I hope to make some contacts soon, is there a certain procedure that is used when doing this on a message board? I'm not that familiar with using one.
  11. Thank you, I am having so many different symptoms even since starting the gluten-free diet that I would like to find a way to talk with others to see if they are experiencing the same things, so a support goup would be great.
  12. Is there a place to find a list of groups? I am looking for something in central Florida. thanks
  13. Wow, I have had the same exact reactions and have been on the diet for a week also.
  14. Hey granolagal, I am new to all this too and had blood work done and all that was told to me was that my antibodies were highly elevated. My regular doctor's office called me and told me to go on a gluten free diet and that's all that was said from the nurse! I asked many questions but she said she wasn't able to tell me much other than that. After I read...
  15. Yes I will get to the doctor about that. I have never had that happen before so I thought maybe it was a result of the diet or a symptom of celiac. I'm not sure what it was, whether it was a seizure or not but I will call my doctor tomorrow. I will see the GI specialist in November so I will see what can be done about the endoscopy. Thanks for your...
  16. Hi Everyone, I have been doing the gluten free diet for a week now and have some questions, maybe you can help me! I had blood work done and it showed my antibioties were highly elevated so my doctor is sure I have celiac disease. He wants to do an endoscopy but I have to wait until January because of insurance since I don't have the money to pay for it...
