I'm 8 weeks gluten free, got diagnosed with celiac through the blood test and scope. I went through the gluten withdrawal which was awful...I felt so tired like when I was pregnant! I have my energy back, but I'm back to having horrible gas pains every night and being bloated and diarrhea every morning. Everything just goes straight through me. I've cut out dairy, stopped eating oats, and I'm taking all the supplements recommended. But I feel worse then I did before diagnosis! Is this normal? Shouldn't I start feeling better by now? And turning to google only stresses me out thinking I need to change my diet completely, again! I have three small children, and this is already so overwhelming. Any suggestions?
