Hi Everyone,

I am new to this forum and have not read too many of the messages. I just wanted to share some general info that I have read about along the way.

Some things to check out if you have not found an answer to your symptoms are celiac disease...very underdiagnosed. Also fructose can be a big problem for alot of people and sometimes it goes along with celiac disease. It is called fructose intolerance or dietary fructose intolerance. There is a type that presents in infancy and also an acquired type. The acquired type is what I am referring to.

I'm not saying that all digestive issues are due to food intolerances, but it is an area that alot of dr.s don't know much about and thus you don't get checked for.

I hope this helps some of you that are suffering. Debbie

After doing a lot of research, i found out that many people can have parasitic infections and not even know about it. it's very scary.
