    My Mother was finally scoped and diagnosed over 30 years ago after suffering a long time. I only wish the doctors had told her that celiac was hereditary and to have her children checked. Instead, my 2 brothers, sister and myself have all SUFFERED last several years with very serious health problems with symptoms all different than moms but all related to...

    I can relate, I was sleeping 20 hours a day and was still tired along with a long list of other problems. You didn't say how long you have been gluten free or if you got worse after going gluten-free. I agree that it could be other grains or you could be getting cross contaminated. From your description you are probably still very sensitive to gluten as...

    ARCHIVED "brain Fog"

    Tom2 replied to Robert M.'s topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    YES, the severe brain fog & neurological disorders along with depression and memory loss are common with me also along with several other problems. You will find it will more than likely come back each time you are cross contaminated so I recommend reading all you can here and arm yourself with knowledge to help yourself get better. Good Luck.

    Ditto! If you find out you have Celiac, you will only complicate your life by accidental gluten. Not only that, you may find that your symptoms will get worse and more numerous after a while if you continue frequently eating gluten. Feel fortunate that you only have minor problems now, Please don't make it worse on yourself. I went over 12 years of...

    Hi Jatsa, Judging from your symptoms I would say welcome to the family. To answer your question, I would have to say that everyones reaction are different to gluten. I was self diagnosed last November with most of the same symptoms as yourself. My whole famiy has Celiac but only my Mother, youngest brother and myself are gluten free. My family are all different...

    I am currently super-sensitive to gluten and woke up last night suffering with bad stomach cramps along with stomach gurgling and nasal wheezing with sinus plugged. I then had nightmares the rest of the night. This morning I still have severe cramps and feel bloated along with D. For dinner last night I had baked chicken, fried homegrown potatoes and...

    I have asked that same question. Seems to be different for everyone considering how bad you were before going gluten free. For me its been almost a year and still asking how long, but after reading several of these post I think my problem has been compounded by soy and cross contamination. Don't give up just keep seeking!

    Thank God for family, friends and coworkers that care about our health and I am thankful you were wise enough to follow good advise.

    Kwylee, Yes I was serious and did not post this as a joke. I discovered this muscle test a few years back when I was going to doctor for chelation IV therapy for what I discovered as mercury poisoning from amalgam fillings. The mercury poison is what triggered my Celiac symptoms into full gear. At that time he checked my whole body and hinted that I may...

    Today, my brother Jeff and I were talking about soy and how that may be our problem since being gluten-free for almost 1 year and still having issues. Jeff remembered a strength test that a ND told us about several years ago and in our brain fog minds we forgot. We tried it on each other with several items like different brands of potato chips, corn meal...

    Thanks for the all the help & advice. My medical issues are a lot more than I listed but I strongly believe that I will find a way to conquer this disease. I have been supplementing with more vitamins and supplements than I can type but down to a few now. In the last 10 years I have spent more than 15 thousand $$$ on vitamins, minerals & supplements...
