Re: How long till some 'recovery'?

[Guest guest]

It is a very individual thing but after going fully gluten-free (and

that often takes awhile to parse), most people have at least some

immediate relief. Depending on the amount of intestinal damage, it can

take months or even up to 2 years (I've read) for them to heal. Hair

loss recovery can take considerable time even with supplements since

the hair takes so long to grow normally.

I felt the better immediately after starting the GF diet. However, my

blood markers and such took just under 2 years to return to normal. I

was way off the charts when I had my endoscopy- so high in fact that

there was no way I wasn't a celiac.

Hi Lizz,

Thanks to you too for your response.

May I ask what your blood markers were if you have them I would like to compare with mine if possible?

How long since your diagnosis? I have had this nausea/anemia on and off and what I now know as hiatus hernia symptoms for a considerable time. I guess I shouldn't expect to be leaping over the moon just yet maybe!?

Did anyone experience any great change in their weight after diagnosis, one way or another?take care.

Ha ha! I will keep my heels in my shoes!

Also, several people have commented on my hair in the past couple of weeks. Everybody seems to think I cut it. I think my hair is a lot healthier looking and has more curl, so it looks shorter. I love these bonus side effects!

--------- Re: How long till some 'recovery'?

I had the same thing. I developed my celiac symptoms while pregnant. Afterwards I thought all my symptoms were just the result of pregnancy disturbing my *innards*. Lots of gas and I was a lot bigger - especially in the abdomen. Turns out the gas was from eating gluten. My abdomen was completely bloated, and stuck out much further than it would have because my muscles had been stretched from pregnancy. Also, my ankles and face and neck were all bloated. So when I went GF, within two days my abdomen, ankles, face and neck were all much smaller - but, alas, no change on the scale.

I also have had strange changes, like my feet aren't as dry as they used to be. My heels used to be so dry I could pound a nail with them! I'm not doing anything differently except being GF, and now they hardly have any callous at all! And I had a strange bump on my leg - had it for years and the doctor wasn't worried about it unless it got bigger - it's shrinking!

I am constantly amazed at how many different reactions there are to food allergies.
