Exhaustion after going gluten-free

Recently diagnosed celiac. I’ve cut all the gluten out of my diet but am now constantly exhausted. All my other digestion and skin issues have disappeared, Has anyone experienced exhaustion after going GF? Any suggestions?

With celiac i found that I was also anemic. It does take time to heal first, so give it time and if you don’t feel better get some blood work done and check for deficiencies

Might be because it’s sometimes harder to find foods to eat. That was my case.

I have extreme anemia and that definitely is linked to the celiac.

When I went on to download the fig app there are a few which one are you Recommending?

I highly recommend the app called “Fig” for scanning food labels! You wouldn’t believe how much gluten is hidden in food. It also helps check for cross contamination- which I didn’t realize was the main cause of my constant fatigue.

I absolutely have experienced exhaustion. I will say that it went away after a few months I was back to normal energy wise, but making it through that summer was hard

It also takes time to heal, something doctors never mentioned to me. About 3 months later I started to feel better

I would check your bloodwork / vitamin levels. It’s it common to be deficient in some with celiac.
