Savannah---I have celiac disease, you have symptoms of this disease too, be it celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Fatique can be the #1 symptom for some of us, as is low iron. My sister's iron level was so low, she had to have iron transfusions every Wednesday for a time. Once they diagnosed celiac disease and she went gluten free, she has not had to have the transfusions. Celiac is the #1 autoimmune disease in the world, and the most undiagnosed. Neuropathy is another symptom.
They can do a blood work up for this disease now, as a starter. There are others here who have found going gluten free really helps them.
