Celiac disease is an autoimmune intestinal disorder, whose specific trigger is gluten. There are several long term conditions that can develop if your Cd is untreated. Among them are Vitamin and mineral deficiencies, Iron anemia, nervous systom disorders, and lactose intolerance. Fibromyalgia is loosely linked to CD.
Unfortuantely, the only cure/treatment for CD is to live a gluten-free diet.

Do you suspect or do u know if u have Celiac? celiac is very often misdiagnosed for several of the things mentioned including IBD, IBS, and neuropathies.
The gluten free diet is not a diet to lose weight. It is only for those who are unable to eat gluten such as those with Celiac Disease, Gluten intolerance, an allergy or children with autism.
If you have Celiac, and u begin the Gluten Free (GF) diet, chances are if u eat healthy u will lose weight. The secret is to not eat the yummy GF varieites of foods out tehre, cakes, cookies, etc. Basically taht is how u lose weight in any diet.
weight gain is indeed a symptom of Celiac. (as is weight loss, which is part of hte reason why its so hard tod iagnose. There is no “Celiac” profile.)
I suggest you see the links posted and you visit a GI doc. THey will run blood work and possibly schedule an endoscopy with biopsy (the gold standard in diagnosign CD). Please feel free to email me for more help.
Best of luck, Amy
