Have you tried modifying your diet? I also have Celiac Disease and have not eaten anything with gluten in it for about 8 years now. Often times, people with Crohn's tend to be gluten intolerant as well. Dairy seems like a problem for some as well.

I know what you mean about feeling different, believe me. The social aspect, or lack thereof, can be the worst part.
Iron arm is like it feels like my arm is made of iron. Well, thats not a good example. Kinda like when you sleep on your arm and it falls asleep and it feels real heavy, thats kinda like iron arm. I've never heard of gluten free. WHen i was first diagnosed 5 years ago, i went on a dairy free diet. and i concluded i wasnt lactose intalerant.
