I actually was diagnosed with celiac back in 2016 via endoscopy, and have been faithfully gluten free since then. Initially I thought this was just a bad flare up, like maybe I had accidentally ingested some gluten, but it’s much different than when that usually happens. For instance, when I’ve ingested gluten by mistake, even a small amount, it backs me up and makes me uncomfortably bloated. Right now I wish I could be backed up just a little bit.

A lot of your symptoms (but not all) are similar to when I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism from Graves’ disease. Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disease (as is celiac) and autoimmune diseases tend to come in clusters.

Heart irregularities, diarrhea, muscles twitches, restless leg syndrome, unable to sleep, fatigue, increased bp on standing, unable to regulate body temperature, unable to regulate mood were all symptoms for me.

These same symptoms can also be from some anxiety medications (Cymbalta for one example), are you on any meds?
