  1. I've been gluten free for almost 3 months, but I'm still feeling pretty lousy. Just found out my vitamin D is quite low (level was 15; "normal" range starts at 30). I'm hoping that explains some of the lethargy etc. My most troublesome symptom continues to be my shortness of breath/inability to catch a breath/air hunger. I haven't been tested for any other...
  2. Over 2 months gluten free. Definitely feeling better than before, but some days are just terrible, while others I feel almost back to normal. It seems that for 3-4 days I finally feel like myself again, yet i wake up the next morning and all my symptoms are back. Did anybody else go through something similar during their recovery process? Any idea why this...
  3. I'm a possible Celiac victim (no blood work before gluten-free). When I first removed Gluten, I felt AMAZING for a few days, but then regressed into my former symptoms. In the two months since, I've felt what I perceive to be a steady recovery, but without any jumps like that which occurred right off the bat. Is this immediate recovery followed by only...
  4. Yes, my iron is fine, and I take B12, Folic Acid and Iron (because my ferritin was on the low end of normal) just in case.
  5. Since eliminating gluten 2 months ago, all of my symptoms (dry hands, fatigue, painful urination, dehydration, trouble concentrating, apathy etc.) have gone away or improved significantly with the exception of shortness of breath. The severity has diminished a bit, and it varies day by day, but I have trouble taking deep breaths, and this often feels connected...
  6. I currently am taking digestive enzymes, probiotics, Vitamin D, iron, B12 and folic acid due to possible Celiac Disease (unfortunately I went gluten free before learning this). Curious what everyone else here takes, why and if it has helped! Thanks so much!
  7. Hi All, I am a teenager who, due to symptoms both gradual and immediate in onset, suspects celiac disease or NCGS (unfortunately, I didn't get the blood test before cutting gluten). I've been gluten free for 2 months, and I have seen a significant improvement in my symptoms, primarily energy (which has skyrocketed) and digestion (which has improved, but...
  8. I've been gluten free for nearly 2 months, but I never had the Celiac tests done before going off gluten. My GI doctor believes that I have celiac, and encourages me to take the gluten challenge, but I'm holding off because I really want to be recovered by the fall in time for fall sports. However, since some of my symptoms have yet to resolve themselves...
  9. I've been tested for anemia, asthma and the like. All negative =(. Yes, the problem is aggravated significantly when I'm up and moving.
  10. Thanks so much for replying! How long did it take in your case for the asthma to go away? Also, was the asthma an everyday thing or did it vary day-by-day?
  11. I'm a teenager who, for the past several months, has experienced a host of symptoms, among them constipation, unbeatable fatigue, an absence of appetite, and perhaps worst of all, labored breathing. My symptoms (particularly the digestive ones) led me to a GI doctor, who gave me a tentative diagnosis of Celiac (or gluten sensitivity--both are on the table...
  12. As of two months ago, both iron and thyroid were within normal ranges.
  13. Hi all, I am a teenager who has been experiencing digestive problems for years (bloating, constipation etc.), symptoms which recently have started to affect all aspects of my life. My breathing has become very labored at times, I am experiencing unexplainable fatigue, and worst yet, I am unable to participate in cross country and track, which are my passions...
