Hi there,

I have a case of celiac disease in my family, so it's something I have quite a bit of knowledge about. Celiac disease can bring, on the long term, all kinds of the most diverse symptoms, from bowels up to the mind. Reading your account, I suspect, as you said, that you had it for a long time, and that it played a part on many of your past issues, probably compounded by the undeniably stressing and not-very-healthy life of an airline pilot.

In any case, having it diagnosed and treated now, is the important part. Good luck for your life! :-)
