    Wow. I guess I got lucky. No issues with dairy, here. So thankful for that. Though, when I first came out of the hospital, the doc told me many celiac sufferers are also dairy intolerant so I had the vegan dairy and it wasn't the worst ever. Sorry to hear your way hasn't been as easy. Like you, when I was sick (and still undiagnosed), I couldn't gain weight...

    Thanks for the article. I am going to do some more research based on what I read there.

    Interesting response. Thank you. I had thought about this but... I just changed my diet for the first time since getting sick. I am on a ketogenic diet now (70% fat, 20% protein and 10% carbs).

After 2 months in the hospital I spent another 8 months with a PICC line and TPN. But that did the trick and I healed for some time. Now, I don't know why, symptoms are creeping back (mostly hair loss) and...

    My Celiac disease went undiagnosed for years due to a lack of GI issues. In fact, for years and years the only symptom that showed from my disease was missed by doctors -- that of my hair falling out. It was after a particularly stressful time with my job and a home invasion robbery that actual GI issues showed up. But my doctor believed they were side...

    Hello all, I have been suffering for some time now and just learned I am severly malnourished and have Celiac Disease (confirmed Monday). The GI specialist said (in from of my boyfriend who has now become a mental basket case) that this is a last-ditch effort treament. He expects 100% cooperation YET I still haven't seen a dietician (only a student...
