Hi, There!
I am also a Celiac...and have experienced neuropathy like your symptoms, mostly at night...and yes, have had seizures, mostly partial seizures. I would like to know if you have been to a neurologist as yet? Even though my EEG did not dispose the seizures, according to my neurologist this is not unusual, especially in our disposition. Also, he/she might want to perform a MRI of the brain, which I would highly suggest. Since we do have an autoimmune disease it opens up the chances of even more immune disease to develop. Although, I have now experienced a very rare brain tumor which is "idiopathic"...and I will be undergoing more testing this month to discern the additional immunities or other problems. I attend the Mayo Clinic because this is so rare, and am part of a Research Program. Being gluten free has definitely helped many of my symptoms which were elevated liver enzymes, gall bladder dyskenesia (which has been removed due to pain), weight loss (I was over weight), and cholesterol normalcy. Unfortunately just being gluten free is not the only "answer" since many of us develop other immune systems as well. The pain in your lower legs indicates a better look and I highly suggest with the seizures seeing a good neurologist soon. Wishing you the best! Joanie |
