    Thanks. I am an absolute mess I've been very careful to make sure I did not get glutened. I don't understand why I am so much worse when I should be getting better

    Good evening everyone I'm coming to you hoping for some shredded insight as to what I'm experiencing. I was diagnosed with celiac disease almost one month ago I quit gluten cold turkey and have progressively started feeling worse and worse and worse to the point that I cannot function. I was a silent celiac with none of the typical symptoms it was a fluke...

    Just a note about beef jerky, one main ingredient in the marinade is soy sauce which has gluten. I found this out the hard way.

    Just an update, I am almost 3 weeks in and have never felt worse in my life. The emotionalness, the break outs, the GI craziness, the extreme fatigue, the brain fog. Holy crud I just want to go back to eating gluten just to feel normal. I am MISERABLE. My dr said it would only last 11-14 days and each day I am feeling worse. To boot I haven't been able to...

    Oh goodness. I am so sorry to hear that! I am however glad to see your post as I am experiencing a very similar thing. My difference is that I have been gluten free for almost 3 weeks and I am feeling worse and worse but same symptoms as you. I just want to go eat some real good bread and say "to heck with it" just to feel normal again. Please let me...

    Welcome Michael. I too am a new glutard as my friends call me (I LOVE that term lol) and am a mere 10 days into my diagnosis. I think I got luck as I have a dog who is allergic to 23 food items one being wheat so I learned how to read the heck outta labels. Some things I have found which hopefully will helps you 1. These wondermous people on celiac.com-...

    Ooh I have some questions that I just realized. So Ia ms hopping at a local market in the gluten free area and then across I see some times that are gluten free "however" it has the warning "Processed on machinery that processes wheat, soy...". Now let me back up a minute, I also have SEVERE allergies (anaphylaxis) to shellfish and mushrooms and an intolerance...

    Thanks for the tips. I am quite sensitive to caffeine so I don't drink any caffeine containing beverages after noon. I also am drinking my normal 120 ounces of water a day I am 10 days into my gluten free and I am hoping the withdrawal symptoms go away in the next couple of days, the exhaustion is almost more than I can bear and the moodiness is horrid...

    Seeing this has made me feel so much better. I am on day 7 of being gluten free after a surprise celiac diagnosis . Ever since I have had headaches, I am so emotional I wish I could step outside my body and shake some sense into myself (seriously I cried over bacon the other day, marshmallows yesterday ), and I have never been so exhausted...

    You misread, I said caffeine I don't drink coffee, mainly tea that I brew myself. Thank you for the heads up though in case I decided I wanted starbucks or something! On a side note I have been doing VERY well avoiding gluten this past week. I thought it would be more difficult but it really isn't )except if you want to grab a bite out somewhere lol...

    Thanks. Apologies if I posted wrong!

    Thanks! Thankfully I love to cook and don't care for eating out much, now I just need to learn how to cook my favorites in a new fashion lol. I avoid sugars and starchy foods but why dairy and alcohol? I swear my yogurt and glass of wine a day are the only things that keep me sane lol!!! Thank you all of you who have replied. It helps a lot to know...

    Yes I did have my thyroid levels tested, T4 and T3 were normal reverse T3 was elevated. My dr also said my hemoglobin was suspiciously good considering how unhealthy I was so I will probably be doing a glucose tolerance test later to see if I am insulin resistant (no hx of diabetes in my family)

    Thanks Diana, Yes my MD gave me pancreatic enzymes, B vitamins, multivitamins, omega 3&6, r-lipoic acid, and a couple other things. I swear I get full off of all the pills I have to slam down my gullet lol.

    Good morning everyone, My name is April and I was just diagnosed with celiac disease last Thursday! I was hoping to share my story and see if anyone else out there is like me and can offer me any "what to expect" advice. Thank you all in advance. In a nutshell these were the weird symptoms I was experiencing: 1. Unexplained weight gain despite diet and...
