A member asked:
I have maybe 4-5 of the celiac symptons, does this mean i have this disease or am i being overly paranoid?

Gluten sensitive?: If you have such symptoms you will need to have a gluten free diet. That is complex enough that you will need advice.

Overlap issues: There are many physical symptoms common to celiac disease/gluten sensitivity that can arise from a different condition. Unless you have test positive antibodies on a celiac screening test and or confirmatory intestinal biopsy, there is no way to be certain you have the disease.It is also not wise to go "gluten free" (which is difficult) without knowing if you need to.
