right before corona hit, i began to not eat as much (loss of apatite) then in december i started to rapidly loose weight. no one really noticed till april of 2020 though, i started getting hypoglycemia episodes, i was horrible constipated, i would poop like once every 10 days. then finally after several months of this, i got lab work done and my antibodies were up, i never got the endoscopy done bc i couldn’t afford it at that time but they diagnosed me with celiac and i’ve been gluten free sense:)
