Celiac Disease Support Group
Celiac disease is an auto-immune disorder of the digestive system that occurs in genetically-predisposed individuals. It is characterised by damage or flattening to all or part of the villi lining the small intestine, which interferes with the absorption of nutrients. This damage is caused by eating anything with gluten (gliadin), a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley...
For the past few weeks there seems to be an added symptom to my Celiac Disease. I think that it's Fibromyalgia, but not too sure. When I get up from sitting for short to long periods of time, my whole body feels stiff. I feel like an old lady. My muscles ache and overall I always feel fatigued. I wake up sore and tired.
I am making a Dr. appointment right away, but in the meantime does anyone have any tips? I feel like garbage and it makes it difficult to live.
Thanks in advance, friends.

The symptoms you describe do sound like the pain and stiffness I get with the fibro. I hope you get good news from the doctor.

In some ways it resembles Fibromyalgia.

I hope you can get in soon to see your doctor.
