May is Coeliac awareness month in the US and Canada,
Good morning everyone, Being a diagnosed coeliac I know how hard it was for me to get diagnosed and it took many years as Dr's thought that I was too healthy and I was suffering from tension. This is because gluten is toxic to coeliac (celiac in the US) so its bound to make us tense and when a coeliac

Comming to grips with Fibromyalgia
This is a disease that is so exasperating and sometimes overwhelming. First, the symptoms are so diverse that I am have stopped asking Doctors unless it is a constant symptom. I have so many pains that come and go that I try to ignore them as much as possible. The disease not only causes pain but also

T3 in range?
Hi. I posted my results last week but my T3 wasn’t tested. I have this week managed to get tested again, after getting embarrassingly upset at my GP appointment, and my T3 has been tested this time. These are my results- TSH 0.10 (0.2-4.0) T4 20.2 (10.0-20.0) T3 1.3(0.9-2.5) My vitamins weren’t tested

Hashi with light at end of tunnel after experiments and Endo meet?
For those who recall - I'm Hashi 10 years and said I'd feed back after making changes and Endo meeting. Kept getting really bad headaches, brain fog, low energy, so instead of increasing dose as before, came off Levo altogether (not on doctors orders!) Plus gluten-free diet. Felt fab even after 7 weeks

Can’t afford gluten free products
Hi, I suffer with IBS and have been trying gluten free diet this last month, noticed a slight difference but nothing major. I can’t afford to keep buying gluten free products to only notice a little difference and I don’t qualify to get them on prescription. My usual food shop would cost £45 and is now

Follow up after diagnosis
Hi. Im new here. I was diagnosed with coeliac disease 4 months ago. I have been seen by a dietitian and have been following a strict gluten free diet. What is the next stage in follow up appointments and is everyone offered a bone density scan ? Just a bit in the dark of what happens after diagnosis.
