  1. It seems to be a sneaky disease! I got diagnosed 22 years ago at age 46, had symptoms starting in my 20's, but thought they were just normal annoying things. Maybe pregnancies triggered celiac to be active(?). My 7 year older sister, who was failure to thrive early on, wasn't diagnosed until 10 years after me. Due to osteoporosis not responding to...
  2. Right? I kind of thought it was laughable, it is a FaceBook group, which totally explains it. but thank you for your reply and information.
