I have been experiencing lower back pain for several months now and I
wonder if it might be related to CD.  I have been gluten free for 8 years
(self-diagnosed, my father has it, I had a positive blood test) but didn't
eliminate hidden glutens until 6 months ago due to poor instructions from
my gastro.  I'm thinking that I haven't been absorbing much calcium (and am
slightly lactose intolerant) plus when I have a gluten attack, the bloating
I experience causes my lower back to hurt immediately.   Anyone else
experience this?
