1desperateladysaved replied to solitaire-master's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi Distressed, Your body sure does seem to be telling you something is wrong. I had fogginess and fatigue that did seem to be changed by gluten free and other things I did.

I was intensly interested since my tongue feels too big for my mouth sometimes. I am on B 12. I am not sure I am absorbing it. Date today. Sunday March 10,2013. ... -

ARCHIVED Thinking I Might Have Celiac
1desperateladysaved replied to TracyFL's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You might try looking up some grain free muffin recipes. I use nut flours and I think they turn out scrumptious. Maybe that would help satisfy the cravings. I hope you continue to feel well and that your diet will help with the diabetes also. Diana -

ARCHIVED Biopsy Positve In Routine Egd
1desperateladysaved replied to angelas78's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I have hope that you are coming to a deep root of your problem. I am happy for that!. I think many hear consider a positive biopsy conclusive.

I am sad too. I do hope that it will work out for you. I used to be in a volunteer organization that would give such rides. It was local in Central MN.

Did you check for more food intolerances? Did you try pancreatic enzymes and probiotics? Do you read every label? Do you make your food from scratch? I know it is all hard when you're tired.
