[QUOTE="Fredkrueger100, post: 2253580, member: 24577"] I am sorry to hear about your wife. I know how she feels. It sucks so bad going through this. I know that many people with celiac live normal lives once they go gluten free. But there are some, like me, that still aren't normal. I eat gluten free and still feel crappy many days. I have the bad headache almost daily. And with that comes a bloated stomach and tiredness. But some days aren't bad at all. I have read that this is something that happens in some celiac disease containing people. I finally found out that I had celiac when I went to the GI doctor and he did an endoscopy. He also did a biopsy. He could tell just by looking at my intestines because they were so deteriorated. But the biopsy also was proof. I would definately get your wife in to a GI doctor ASAP. I know how hard it is to deal with. My prayers are with yall. I hope that she can get this figured out soon and get some relief. Has she tried to go gluten free for a while to see if the symptoms subside any? When I first got it I dropped about 37 pounds. And I wasn't big to begin with. But now I have gained some weight back through weight training but even that is hard to do when you don't feel good all the time. Most people out there just don't have a clue about how bad this stuff is. There have been people that have died from it. But more and more people are starting to learn and do something about it. And to the people that talk about gluten free restaurants. Unless they are completely gluten free then I will not risk cross contamination.
