I too have several autoimmune illnesses. I have severe allergies to almost
everything. Although I've taken allergy shots for years, the chronic nasal
congestion is unrelenting. I was particularly interested in your mention of
joint problems. I had never experienced any until about a month ago when I
had the flu. I developed severe joint pain. Although I've completely
recovered from the flu, the joint pains, although far less severe have
remained. Up until I read your letter, I did not connect them with Celiac.
