I want to thank them many people who responded so quickly on the above
subject.

Most people say they also experienced Swollen Glands and Ear Aches.
Many feel that it is due to the Swollen Glands pressing on the Ear.

One person feels that it could be a TMJ problem.

Thanks to all those (and there were many) who agree that, at this point,
it would be senseless to make myself ill by going back on Gluten, just
to have a specialist confirm what I already know:  That I cannot eat
Gluten.  Your support means alot.

The extreme fatigue that was mentioned sure hit home.  When I ingest
gluten, I get an overwhelming sense of fatigue.  I fall asleep at my
desk, almost fall asleep in the car, and am crashed on the couch by 8:00
at night.  It is such a horrible feeling that you have no control over.

My glands, when they swell, throb.  The pain moves throughout my neck
and up into my ears.  Strangely, there is a spot in my upper back that,
if I press on it, I can feel the pain shoot up in the exact location
that it hurts.  Anybody have any explanation?

One other question I have:  Can anyone explain to me why having Celiac
Disease causes alot of other Food Intolerances?  I have alot of problems
with foods in the 'Nightshade' family (in particular potatoes, tomatoes,
and peppers).  This disease is so strange, it is hard to explain it to
others.

Thanks again to all that responded so quickly.  To those who asked
specific questions, I will get back to you as soon as possible.
