Hi -
I work with a woman who has Celiac Disease. She went to her doctor numerous times and with no success. Her stomach was mess (would blow up like a balloon) along with her digestive system, no energy to the point she couldn't get out of bed, and her muscles were so tight she got cortzone injections. In the end, she ended up in the hospital. She and her husband did research and insisted that she be tested for Celiac Disease. Her doctor somewhat resisted, but she was tested and found positive. She is also glucose intolerant. I have had problems in the past with my stomach and digestive issues. I went to my OBGYN and had an ultrasound, sonogram and then a colonoscopy. At one point, I did end up in the emergency room with a CT scan. My doctor was looking for female issues instead of digestive issues. Overall - I didn't have much success. Also, my brother-in-law had problems with his stomach/digestion - his doctor told him he was just getting older (early 40's). My sister researched and found he is glucose intolerant. I think our bodies are constantly changing, especially after having children. Please keep updating and good luck!
