Another Question,

I guess I still have so many unanswered questions and unclear as to where to turn other than these forums, as none of this seems to make sense,and quite frequently my GI doc looks at me like I have three heads. Was curios to know if anyone experiences episodes through the day of a overwhelming malaise and sick feeling? Not always related to abdominal pain but sometimes like diffuse aching in back, lightheaded sorta fuzziness, like you could pass out, then just generally unwell like you have to lay down and just feel like you are going to die. It is fo hard to even categorize it, other than feeling extremely unwell and having difficulty focusing on anything, just feel like crying I feel so lousy. It often seems to come on with intense back cramps and aching, so weird I know. I am sorry for not being more specific, just scared I guess.

I know exactly what you're talking about. That feeling like I could just "blink out" at any moment was my biggest symptom prior to going gluten free. Very scary, especially since no doctor could tell me why. Turns out, for me it wasn't just gluten it was also dairy and soy. But once I cleared them from my system I was clearer thinking and feeling than I had been in two decades.

yep. I feel this too, when glutened (I think). Except my muscle aches are in my biceps and calves primarily rather than my back.

I also have random depression and crying spells with soy, and of course when you're in pain and so on you just want to cry and cry...

      Yes, if you had symptoms when eating gluten ruling out celiac disease won't necessarily mean you'll be able to eat gluten again, although it might mean that you may be able to be less strict with your gluten-free diet.

      Have you considered the possibility that you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) rather than celiac disease? They share many of the same symptoms, the difference being that NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is no test yet available for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. In view of your genetic profile, I would give it consideration.

      Hi, 25f who recently had a endoscopy procedure to diagnose celiac disease. Mum and uncle are both diagnosed celiacs. I've had symptoms over the past year - headaches that have become debilitating and frequent, feeling faint and nauseous with high heart rate, diarrhea and constipation, anemia, and recently my periods have become almost non existent. My doctor sent me a letter yesterday saying this " biopsies from the duodenum show some very mild features that could be in keeping with celiac disease but also could be due to other causes". I am waiting on an appointment to see him in the clinic to discuss this but in the meantime I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this? I was eating plenty of gluten before my camera test and for the past 2 weeks have completely cut it out of my diet and I'm seeing changes in my bowel movements for the first time in my life! Headaches, dizziness etc are still there but maybe it takes longer for them to go away? Any help would be so appreciated -  I feel so lost in this whole process!!

      Did your symptoms improve after going on a gluten-free diet?
