It causes all sorts of problems and for some reason is not screened for in people.
No drugs for it, right? Certain diseases are considered rare, especially if there is no drugs connected to the problem...like Celiac. Same is true for gluten intolerance...the doctors are getting better, yet now, if you don't have celiac, they let you slide through the cracks. A gluten intolerant person can be as sick, or sicker than a celiac.

Is there a test for this? Must be.

We urge all doctors to take time to listen to your patients.. don't "isolate" symptoms but look at the whole spectrum. If a patient tells you s/he feels as if s/he's falling apart and "nothing seems to be working properly", chances are s/he's right!
