Actually worse
Cara, I've been gluten free for about a year now. And I have actually worsened during that time. The reason I decided to do it is not the neuropathy, I had tried the gluten free diet the first year of the neuropathy, but actually the rheumatoid type arthritis. I just figured it might help some of the inflammation caused by the RA. But I can't say it has helped either of the diseases. I have gotten more and more crippled and the neuropathy has now moved into my hands also. So I can't in all honesty say that the gluten free diet has helped me. I'm just afraid to not do it in the off chance that it is helping some. It is still a tough call for me because to eat gluten seems like eating poison after not eating it for so long.
