AdrenalSuccess- Congratulations! Thanks for sharing your story!
I can relate to the gluten link between Depression and anxiety. I experienced the exact same thing. In fact I was able to stop all medications for severe anxiety/bipolar disorder when I quit eating all the foods I am intolerant to. I have now been gluten/dairy/grain free free for 4 years.
Unfortunately that was not enough to cure the AF in my case. It wasn't until I treated the chronic infections that I had for many, many years without knowing I had these.
You are right about finding the root cause of AF. Otherwise it seems we just go around and around with little real improvement.
Best of health to you and your girl! Nice to hear a happy ending once in a while.
