I haven't gone to the doctor to check for an infection but the fevers almost always start after i eat dinner (which is my biggest meal of the day), and always low grade. Sometimes within an hour I get drops from 99 to 97. It just seems like a huge drop, and I always get cold from the drop. As I'm writing this I have a 98.8F temperature and I feel like I'm burning up.

I'm heading out to europe (croatia) tomorrow and I'm wondering if I should see a doctor over there or will it be a waste of time.

Thanks guys I appreciate it.

I have one more question. I constantly feel like I have a fever even when I don't. But my temperature seems to be fluctuating a lot. Sometimes from 95.9 to 99.3. Is it possible I might have something else as well or am I being a hypochondriac, and need to wait this out?

Hi guys. I was looking for an intro section but it isn't available as far as I can tell. 

I've been sick for the past year trying to figure out what is wrong with me. My primary told me there was nothing more he could do for me after him giving me the run around for 2-3 months. He took a few tests but then started giving me antidepressants, saying I was just depressed and anxious.

To shorten the story I took an endoscopy and everything came out negative and I was sent to an infectious disease doctor who tested for a variety of things and celiac came back strong positive. I went off gluten immediately and felt great within 3 days. 

My symptoms are need for immediate evacuation of bowels to painful bm to no pain. I don't really get D or C. I do however get mucus in my stool every so often. (maybe 1-2 times a week). It really hits me more in the energy, mood, and foggy head feeling. I also feel a burning in my bowels and feel like I have a constant fever. I almost every night have 37.1 to 37.4C temp. Very lowgrade fever. And you might say this isn't a fever but im always at night around 36.5 (when I wasnt sick).

Anyway the digestion specialist wanted me back on gluten so he could perform another endoscopy. So I asked him how much to eat and he said normally. So I had cookies and pies, and sandwiches/burgers. I felt like crap that whole week. 

Results came back positive for celiac and the biopsy was positive.

Now I am recovering but I find that it is taking much longer and feel as if at times I'm not progressing at all. I even started throwing up the first few days.

I guess my question is how do I find out my sensitivity? Is there a test? Also I've been eating mainly raw stuff except for peanut butter which seems like a good processed choice because it is really just a blend of peanuts and oil.

Is the mucus thing a normal thing for recovering celiacs? I also seem to have very thick spit that sinks in water then pops back up. Just very thick spit.

Sorry for all the questions but I've been really bummed last few weeks and really have been thinking my time here might be short. I know this is a crappy way to live, but I decided to just live my life, fight through it, and leave the rest up to the universe to sort out.

I will be traveling in a few days to europe to see my baby doll, because I feel like she helps me a lot through this. I will be flying on virgin and they have a gluten free meal. Should I consider this celiac safe?

Thanks for being an ear, and listening to my psychotic ramble
