    I was sick with debilitating stomach aches, fatigue, severe bloating, constant weight gain and fluctuations, amongst other things, for years. I was also sick with pretty much every cold that happened to be going around (or even not going around) at the time. At the end of July this year, I became incredibly sick. I had a severe stomach ache and nausea that...

    The tingly limbs, brain fog and numbness shows up within 30 minutes. Over the course of a few days, the GI stuff/joint pain/bone pain/muscle aches get worse. Takes about 1-2 weeks for it to go away completely.

    1. My whole stomach hurt and would bloat a ridiculous amount. My stomach aches were constant, severe and debilitating and would last for at least 2 hours at a time. My stomach aches cleared up in the first few days after cutting gluten. 2. Gnawing intestinal pain, passing mucous in BMs, (especially right after a glutening). 3. Inflamed joints, achy...

    Update: I was officially diagnosed with celiac disease this morning based on my symptoms alone. I attempted a gluten challenge on October 31 and had to stop on November 1 because I felt like I was knocking on death's door. Mom got blood tests on the 4th and is currently waiting for the results!

Read every label, sanitize/decontaminate everything (counter tops, baking stuff, pots/pans- though if you have non-stick pans that have been cooked with gluten, you need to have...

    Is it possible to diagnose on a failed gluten challenge alone? I have an appointment with my doctor on November 7th and an appointment with an allergist on December 7 (for a tingly tongue/mouth/face after eating nutella)- is there anything specific I should be asking either of them?

    Hi! Thank you for the replies! My mom is very pro-gluten-free. I told her that even if the tests come back negative, she should go gluten-free anyway, and she agrees. I'll talk to her about going DF as well. We've been doing a lot of looking into celiac and also cushing's which is a real possibility for her. I'll have a talk with her about the vitamins...

    Hi all, I've been lurking for a while but finally feel it's time to post. I think celiac is a definite possibility for my mom. For now I consider myself "gluten sensitive" but am unsure of what the diagnosis really is. I apologize if things are repeated/unclear in this post- I'm experiencing quite the brain fog. I'll start with my mom: Diagnosed with...
