For those that have it, what made you think there was something wrong before you were diagnosed? What were your symptoms?
Also, how hard is it to live gluten free? Do a lot of you find that you have sensitivity to dairy as well?
I don't want to get into too much detail, but whatever is going on has made my life very unpleasent lately and has taken over much of my life. I just want to know whats wrong and work on fixing it. |
I have a relative with IBD, who was told that the only way to definitively diagnose celiac disease is a biopsy, which can be done during a colonoscopy.
You might want to look into these books if you haven't already:
Amazon.com: Celiac Disease: A Hidden Epidemic... Amazon.com: The First Year: Celiac Disease and...
Wishing you all the best.
