Sorry it's been a while coming but here is my summary to the question
concerning my period of illness since being diagnosed with cd.

Of the 28 replies I received 12 had experienced the same kind of period
of illness as me with various ailments , the general consensus being
that it would take 2-3 years on a gf diet to fully restore the immune
system.

6 people had however experienced much better health post-diagnosis !!

Most of you mentioned supplemental vitamins which I am now taking.

As an addendum to this I initially raised this question after a bad case
of tonsillitis - I have now had three cases of tonsillitis in the last
month. My GP has put me on a longer case of penicillin to try and shake
it off. Also I have had three cold sores in the last month !!

After this last month I personally am sold on the " compromised immmune
system " theory.
