<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Dear Listmates, I am quite new to this list and the disease, I was diagnosed earlier this year with c.d. in the month of April and have been on a glutten free diet eversince. Since the last couple of months I have been suffering from constant neck pain which is there throughout the day and in the night when I lay down to sleep it even gets worse. I wake up in the middle of the night, every night, only to find my whole hand is numb (sleeping) and I am unable to lift it up. I have to wait for at least fifteen minutes, massaging and excersing it, before I can really move my arm. I have a one year old baby I have to attend to. Has anyone every been through this before, is this c.d. related, is it a side effect of any kind? I would appreciate any help and advise that I can receive from this very special group of people. I will summarize. I will be going to see a neurologist tomorrow. Regards, Sneha in Panama
