Celiac disease affects everyone differently, and at different times is their life. A factor that might play a role in when and how symptoms of celiac appears is whether and how long a person was breast-fed during infancy.The longer breast-feeding was done, the later symptoms of celiac disease appear, and the more atypical the symptoms. Other factors include when they began eating foods containing gluten and how often. Symptoms don’t always occur in the digestive system. For example, one person might have diarrhea and abdominal pain, while another person can be irritable or depressed. In fact, irritability is one of the most common symptoms in children with Celiac disease.
Adults with a more classic form of the disease experience diarrhea, malnutrition, and weight loss. However, certain people don’t experience digestive symptoms at all. About 10% of people with celiac disease develop a painful, itchy skin rash with small blisters—a disease called dermatitis herpetiformis. Children don’t experience symptoms until foods containing gluten are introduced into their diet. Some children only experience a mild upset stomach, while others develop painful abdominal bloating.
I was finally diagnosed with an auto-immune disease that is very hard to detect. I spent tens of thousands of dollars visiting doctors across the country trying to find out what was wrong with me. I spent numerous days feeling as though a truck had hit me and went to more gynecologists than a woman who has had 10 kids! I spent one day in particular at O’Hare airport with a sharp stabbing pain in my abdomen. I had a long delay and there was no place to lie down so I ended up buying an airport lounge membership for $450.00 to the Admirals Club so that I would have a place to rest! Also, there were days (immediately before I was diagnosed) when I couldn't’t get out of my bed. If you are suffering from chronic stomach pains don't dismiss it as stress or IBS. It is probably more serious than that. Also, if you are having painful intercourse read my story.... the answer is very simple and you don't need to see every gynecologist in town. If you wait too long to find out what is wrong you will suffer both physically and emotionally. Not to mention your relationship with your spouse or loved one will be compromised and you risk losing them. For the women who are not in relationships you will avoid having them because of this problem.
I will tell you my story, what doctors to see and who not to see, and help you pinpoint what is wrong with you. I will mention conditions and diseases to get tested for and save you years of agony. You can avoid spending years on the internet searching for the best products and doctors…. I will tell you what is best for everyone and who to consult with so that you can get the best supplements for whatever health problem you are encountering. I can’t begin to tell you how many bad doctors I saw and how much bad advice I got. It was devastating to have these symptoms for so long. What I thought was a fatal disease turned out to be something easily curable. Basically, I did 8 years of my own research to diagnose myself. If you want to feel better within 2 weeks read my story. I guarantee I can help you, I am pain free now....
