Not everyone with celiac disease experiences the same effects. Some people may even think they don't have any symptoms of celiac disease, but they may simply be unaware that their complaints are related to their diagnosis!
This is a great list of the many symptoms people with celiac disease can experience. Many people, including doctors and other health professionals, think that someone must have gastrointestinal complaints in order to have CD, but that is not true. Many people do, but many do not. Oftentimes people do not even realize all of the symptoms they are experiencing that are related to celiac disease until long after diagnosis when they begin to piece clues together.
If you think you might have celiac disease, talk to your doctor. They can send you for a simple blood test to find out if it is a possibility.

Eating out with celiac disease can be risky. Here are 5 places gluten may be hiding outside the home.
