For those with celiac, it can become a constant struggle to get people to understand the pain that you're suffering silently. Just because they can't see it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. This is especially true if you don't have the "typical" symptoms of celiac. For years, Jennifer suffered from everything from sinus infections to digestive issues and panic attacks.

Be clear and honest with yourself; it's a journey every day. Once you accept this in yourself, you can look to those who support you.Finally, understand those who can't understand; but also seek out those who will always be there for you.Tune in to Jennifer and Lisa as they discuss the invisible nature of celiac, as well as ways to cope with this painful and often debilitating disease.
