Recovering from celiac is like having the DA say that new DNA evidence proves you were innocent all along and will now be released after spending years imprisoned for a crime you did not committ.

Yeah, I think so. It wasn't all in your head after all!

I think this is such a good one. Living forever with the stigma of having been sick for so long. Forever having people who will never believe you. Consequences will linger from the time lost and nothing can ever fix that. But, life can only get better, you are set free and everyone who isn't a moron or hold a grudge for something that isn't your fault will let go of your past and look to your future with you.

Oh my goodness, I know! I was diagnosed at the first of the year and I'm still amazed at how fantastic I feel!

      Welcome to the forum, @SaiP! Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or are you self-diagnosed? What is your average calorie intake per day? Your diet seems to be low in carbohydrates. The only carbohydrate rich food in your list is the white rice. A snack high in simple carbohydrates before retiring for bed at night may help with sleep. Can you do potatoes? Also, tryptophan is reported to help with sleep. Turkey meat is a rich source of tryptophan.  Also, your diet would seem to be low in fats and oils. Apart from the avocado, there is not much in your diet to supply this vital category of nutrient.  Your theory about the connection between gluten withdrawal and insomnia seems...

      @sillyyak52 Welcome to the forum! I'm just about to go away for a couple of days but read this and just had to reply.  I am so sorry for what you are going through... it is really tough. Perhaps finding a short video online which explains the seriousness of celiac disease might help.  Just sit your family down and say, "Please just watch this one video with me."    There is one, here for example, on Coeliac UK, which I think is convincing - What is Coeliac Disease? https://www.coeliac.org.uk/healthcare-professionals/resources/videos-for-newly-diagnosed-patients/?&&type=r&set=true#cookie-widget I was watching a TV comedy programme we have in the UK over Christmas...

      I was diagnosed with celiac disease just over a year ago. I never had any gastrointestinal symptoms before I started eating gluten free, and the diagnosis did come somewhat as a shock. The symptoms that led to my diagnosis were fatigue, and an ongoing Iron and Vitamin D deficiency that worsened even when taking supplements. I visited my GP with these symptoms, which consequently led to a positive celiac blood test and eventually a positive biopsy. Since starting the gluten free diet, I no longer have any deficiencies or unexplained fatigue. When I am glutened now, I experience bloating, severe constipation (that often affects my sleep!) and an onset of fatigue.  My family does not...

      Hi guys,  I have been reading this forum for quite a while now, so I decided to create an account and post my story.  I've had celiac disease since September 2015 and yet over the years i have still eaten gluten and gradually went from 65kg to 43kg in a 9 year period. I am severely underweight and  and decided to go gluten free. Age - 34, Male  Weight - 94lb - 43 kg (look like a skeleton, ribs showing etc) Height - 170cm Main symptoms - Severe weight loss + severe brain fog Allergies - (all life threatening) - eggs, nuts, peas, lentils, sweetcorn and many antibiotics. I am on a 100% strict gluten free diet (all made at home) i.e. I only eat:  cooked chicken thighs (with salt+pepper) White rice ...
