RE: Crackly joints & demineralization (was Thanks for support/Energy levels ?

Does

anyone else have joints that crack and pop easily? I’ve had this issue since I

was a young child with almost every joint in my body. I thought it was strange

because I didn’t know other people who popped when they walked, esp. hips,

knees, and ankles. Could it have a connection to demineralization?

Dorothy, don't be surprised if the GI doc wants your son to go back on

gluten. If the scope can be scheduled SOON, that may not be necessary.

Molly's behavior and energy levels changed within a week of going GF.

Many celiacs are anemic, especially before diagnosis. That'll zap

anyone's energy. When a toddler is starving to death and has a

horrible stomachache and other aches (Molly's bones had demineralized;

she stopped walking), he or she doesn't feel like playing!
