Epilepsy and Celiac Disease

Tue, 11/21/2006 - 15:05
Hi! Is there anyone out there who has both Epilepsy and Celiac Disease? I was diagnosed with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and Frontal Lobe Epilepsy approximately two months ago and was diagnosed with Celiac Disease only yesterday. I have never met anyone with Celiac Disease before and was just wondering if there is anyone out there who has Celiac Disease and knows more about it? Thanks! :)

I just found out and I am allergic to milk and my dad has Celiac Disease!  thanks for your note!  My focus is on the left temporal and left occipital! Celliac now makes sense the GI doctor laughed at me and said think of your father and I told her your have a good point and then think of your sister!  Oh but she never had symptoms until she turned 60!  I have had since I have had my kids!
