Today marks 3 weeks since going gluten free. Overall I feel a world better!!! At first, I was sleeping really good (like the first week and a half), but for the last week and a half or so, I've had horrible insomnia. Now, I am a chronic insomniac anyway, but I was rather enjoying that week and a half of restful sleep

So I went to my follow up appointment with my doctor today, 2 weeks since going gluten free. After HE said to go gluten free and it will help a great deal. So I go in, all excited, that in 2 weeks time my health has improved drastically (I was also put on Savella for fibromyalgia, and taken off my other fibromyalgia medication.)
Anyway, I love my doctor, he's the only one who has ever listening to me - really listened - and he's overall good with a great bedside ...- Read Full Article...

I am getting a sleep study done tonight. My Oncologist referred me for one. I have had chronic insomnia since I was 15 years old. I am now 34.

So I am starting to think that several of the things I have beend diagnosed with, and/or are struggling with (including severe insomnia) are directly tied to gluten.
Just over a week in, my insomnia has gotten noticeably better. My fibromyalgia pain has gone from constant pain to, seriously, being decreased by over half (granted, I am also on a new fibro medication, but whatever it is is working, so I'm not going to question it!) I have noticed my focus has been ...- Read Full Article...

Well, 7 days down... a whole week gluten free... and I'm feeling hopeful. Good sign, considering I really thought I'd be down in the dumps over this (thank you to this forum and the book 'Living Gluten Free for Dummies by Danna Korn for the push in the hopeful direction!)
We are making our very first grocery store trip this Friday, since my diagnosis. Surprisingly, I'm kind of excited.
I think the prospect of feeling better (which I am already starting t...- Read Full Article...

Here it is, July 2014. I have been going through the run around since 2009 with possible celiac and/or gluten intolerance diagnosis. Over the years, I have not gotten a solid answer; and in the meantime other health issues had taken front seat to my possible gluten problems.
July 3, 2014: Diagnosis received.
So far so good with being gluten free. Today will be day #4.
