<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> It's about time I got this summary out to all those interested in my findings. Basically I have learned that approx. 5% of untreated Celiac patients suffer symptoms that are very similar to those of Multiple Sclerosis. It seems you can have the balance and uncoordination difficulties, numbness, eye sight abnormalities and of course the bowel "stuff". My original concern was for my sister-in-law, who was diagnosed with MS. I have always suspected she had CD, especially once my children were diagnosed. I know it has to come from somewhere right? My children can't be the only members of this large family, to have CD. I did share my findings with my sister-in-law and she said she would go for the blood test first. I will post her results. In reading some of the articles suggested it seems that some MS patients, for whatever reason, went on a gluten-free diet and their symptoms were less severe if not diminished. I'm wondering if they had MS at all or just undiagnosed, untreated Celiac. Anyway, if a GF diet helps I will urge my sister-in-law to try it as well.
