Is there anyone who might be able to shed light on symptoms being experienced
by a 19 year old woman diagnosed with Celiac about 8 months ago and who has
been gluten-free for this period but who feels fatigued, experiences
occasional dizziness as well as a tingling/numbness sensation in her hands
(and sometimes her feet)?  We are going to get a doctor's opinion but I
thought I would ask if there is some explanation known out there.  She seemed
to be improving in terms of energy level etc since she went on the gluten-
free diet, but this last month has been suffering from these symptoms after a
trip to New York.  Could accidentally ingesting gluten, for example during
her trip, cause what is now a month long reaction?
 
Thanks for any thoughts on this.
