I also lost weight prior to being diagnosed. I went to weight watchers and
indeed watched what I ate. I have had a post diagnosis of 12lbs. Thank god
it seems to have come to a plateau. I also exercise regularly and could tell
you exactly what calories and fat I injest in a day. I would like to know
what other people think. No one has had a comment (i.e. Drs) because it is
only 12lbs. and I was lucky to not have the lean loss that most people have
prediagnosis. I have had blood work last week to check for lupus, rheumatoid
arthritis, thyroid and for anemia. I seem to have especially a problem
keeping my iron up. Any suggestions? I am very tired (even though I work
full time) I use to be much more active and everything seems like such a
chore. I also have pain on my right side in my back and feel like I am
having problems taking deep breaths, dizzy spells & low blood pressure. I
still feel like I have something else going on but it took so long to be
diagnosed as Celiac I am afraid they are missing something else. I am
completely GF and working with an allergist just in case it may be other
allergies.
Any comments about what else I should ask the Dr would be appreciated.
