    I wish also more people could get past the embarrassment, my PT was very professional and did her best to make me comfortable. It wasn't as bad as I feared it would be. It's kind of like the gluten-free diet, intimidating at first but not so bad once you really experience it. She was the one who really pushed me not to give up and got me finally diagnosed...

    I am going to suggest that they talk to their doctor about a referral to a Physical Therapist that specializes in this problem. I had to deal with this issue and was surprised at how successful the therapy was. Between that and being gluten-free I have been able to regain control for the most part.

    One of my primary symptoms was joint and muscle pain, misdiagnosed for years as fibromyalgia and arthritis. I think a lot of us get this.

    Thanks, it would be nice if they found a pill for this. Without doubt it will need careful monitoring ($$$$$$$$) and be quite expensive but at least then Dr. may look for gluten sensitivities. It's apparently not profitable enough for them to diagnose in this country.

    Please see your gyno, I started perimenopause at about your age and by 41 my periods had stopped. I was told it (the peri) was 'in my head', just like my IBS, fibromyalgia and incontinence. Everything has resolved in the 2 years since diagnosis and my gyno told me he sees signs my periods may start again. (at 48!) Stay gluten-free and talk to your doctor...
