  2. Jean Shifrin
    Thanks so much for this article, Scott. My symptoms are not gastrointestinal, but result in intense swelling in my left knee if I consume gluten. The swelling will go down in a day or two if I do not ingest any more gluten. I'm thankful that I no longer have gastrointestinal related symptoms, so most of these remedies are not applicable - but I appreciate...

    HI, I am new to this and am still in 'repair' mode, which I know will take time. But I'm wondering if anyone knows what happens if you ingest gluten after you have made a lot of progress in repairing your villi. Does anyone know if you just have a short-term issue? Or does an accidental ingestion of gluten derail all the work you've done and set you back...

    Hello, For those of you who have been brave enough to travel, do you have any tips? I am interested in Western Europe, Australia and Africa. Does anyone know if any particular country is Celiac friendly? How do you navigate eating when traveling? TIA.

    Thanks! Hi Suzy, I’m so grateful to have this forum. Thanks for responding. And I’m so sorry for all you have been through. This is such a long and challenging journey. I have been dealing with many surgeries and other issues for a long time now and my heart goes out to you because I understand what it’s like. I’m trying to accept the fact that my retirem...

    Thanks Scott. I have been using CBD creams, etc. and I do think they help ease the swelling a bit. And thanks so much for creating this forum and for helping those of us who are dealing with a very scary and challenging diagnosis. My path was a bit similar to yours, without so many invasive tests though. I suspect many people suffer for years before getting...

    Hello, I am 67 and newly diagnosed, although I've probably had Celiac for many years. I did have digestive issues years ago, but went gluten-free for many years and my gut improved greatly and I slowly introduced gluten back into my diet. A few years ago I started have severe knee swelling in my arthritic knee. I have tried many treatments, including a total...
