    HI everyone, I finally had my biopsy to confirm/rule out celiac. My bloodwork was not all conclusive(one of the tests was positive not all?).

I have started being gluten...

    Thanks for the reply Mushroom. I have headaches, muscle and joint pain, fatique yet wake up numerous times at night, IBS, GERD, constipation, fibromyalgia diagnosis,the list goes on...

I have my...

    Hi there, I have some wierd finger/hand symptoms too. My palms are red also. My hands go from being cold and wrinkled to warm and swollen like you describe with a waxy type appearance.

    Oh I forgot to add I am constantly congested, and get frequent sinus infections. I am allergic to many things but have controlled my environment and have gotten allergy shots for 4 years now. I have also been getting gassy from dairy so I have switched to almond milk and I am doing much better with that. I do still have a yogurt for breakfast and seem...

    Hi all, I am waiting on a biopsy in a little over a week to confirm my celiac dx. My symptoms are severe gerd, indigestion, some constipation, muscle and joint pain, insomnia (can fall asleep yet wake up numerous times throughout the night), many more. Here are the things I am concerned about because they are new and not part of my normal fibromyalgia...
