<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi gang: I've been glutten free for about 2 months and I don't see any difference in my bowel disturbances, and I am so itchy, on my arms upper thighs (front, back and sides) and back, it nearly drives me crazy, it especially is worse after I go for a run and I sweat and it's -12 degress celius. I don't think it's related to being celiac but just the cold winter air. I got some lotion yesterday, hopefully that will help. I know it varies from person to person but how long does it take for the gut to relax and act normally. Jane
