Hi, One night I found myself barely able to find my way out of the bedroom because whole world was swaying. The following night a similar experience. I reviewed my previous activity to see if I had made any changes in my life style. I realized that for a long period I had been enjoying french bread every day with my evening meal. I suspected gluten and stopped the french bread and had no more disorientation. Then I read up on what I could find out about gluten intolerance and found out it could cause gluten ataxia ,which could effect motor movements such as hand writing etc. I thought back and realized I had been barely able to sign my tax return the last couple years. Since going gluten free my handwriting has much improved. Also, I have been diagnosed with diabetic poly peripheral neuropathy which I now suspect is actually gluten neuropathy
