Coeliac and Anaemia

Hi. I was diagnosed with anaemia last July and then coeliac disease after testing. I've been GF since November.
My iron levels are up and down when adjustments are made to my iron tabs. I had an iron infusion in february and I'm back to low levels. I've been told it can take 2 years for my gut to recover.
I just wondered how others in similar circumstances had got on.
Thank you

Before my diagnosis of Coeliac's Disease I was critically anaemic. It took about a year of strictly following a gluten-free diet (including avoiding any may contains) before my iron levels reached a normal level.
