Hello,

I forgot to mention in my post that I have already been tested by my doctor
such fatigue causing nasties, such as hypothyrodism and anemia.  I'm not sure
about diabetes, because I don't know how that is diagnosed.  Anyway, I got a
lot of emails telling me to test for these.  Also people suggested to stop
drinking milk.  I haven't drank milk on a constant basis for five years, and
very rarely.  I believe milk is very evil.  I think this probably one of the
reasons that I better than most people are with these problems.  I stopped
drinking milk before things got serious.  People suggested less carbos, which
I am working on.  I admit this could be a problem.

Other than that, the response varied from 2 weeks to six months for
elimination of fatigue . . . and usually it is very gradual.

I have found recently that sugar and coffee often bring me nausea symptoms of
my duodenitis, so I have a feeling that these things are irritating the
stomach, which certainly would not promote healing.  Also people say that
malaborpsation can still happen for some time to come.  This really make
sense to me.  A couple people suggest B12 shots, but that is impractical for
me in Poland -- I had a hard time just finding GF vitamins.

Some people mentioned particularly fat soluable vitamins, since many celiac's
have problems digesting fat.  I've noticed that I have a difficult time
digesting things like peanuts and potatoe chips if I eat  more than small
amount (I get nauseated).  I've wondered if its the fat.
