Being gluten free is not easy. I have negative blood work, but decided to try it and wore myself out with the cooking....hubby could not cook gluten free for me, and many days he cooks.

16% of Idiopathic Neuropathy is thought to potentially be due to Celiac Disease.

I think that you can live a healthy life without gluten, so I disagree with your nutritionist. However, the gluten free lifestyle is not without challenges.

On the TENS. I had one, and it never helped me one iota, however, many people get a great deal of relief. Perhaps you used it too long or at too high of an intensity. TENS does stimulate muscle to contract if on a high enough setting....I could if I wanted get my whole arm to move...now this was 20 years ago, and I hope technology has advanced since then.

Take a few days off from the TENS and then try using it for a shorter time, and keep the intensity low.
