Thanks for this post and for the continued bumping to the top! I am awaiting my biopsy - have to wait five weeks which feels like forever. I have had many of the symptoms and some only recently. I think that might be because I just recently started eating bread and pasta regularly again. In past I have found that it makes me gain weight, so I ate minimal amounts which might be why symptoms were mild.
Now, it's all making sense with my bloating, gas, headaches, tiredness, anemia and previously constipation which has now turned to diarrhea (fun!). I found the list of symptoms daunting but it sure makes it clear why it's underdiagnosed. I too thought you had to lose a ton of weight or be really skinny to have celiac - not so. I am so glad I am being sent for biopsy - if diagnosed, it will have been about 1.5 yrs of mild to moderate symptoms.
Thanks to all of you GF-ers for your time and info!
