I mean every day of my life (as far back as I can recall). Literally every single day.
I find it very difficult to describe the nature of the symptoms. There's definitely a lot more than the general description I gave.
Regarding celiac disease, I have no idea why you're mentioning osteomalacia, as that does not seem at all related to the symptoms I described.
I would really really like to get a biopsy for celiac disease, but the effects of gluten on me are too severe for me to presently spare the few months of eating gluten required for the test. Unfortunately I got given, and followed, poor advice -- to go off gluten for a few months and then reintroduce it and see the consequences. I wish I had gotten the test initially. Being off gluten has cleared up a number of fairly bad symptoms that I've had all my life, and my brother and his daughter also have similar issues with it.
The inflammation/muscle spasm stuff has generally improved after avoiding gluten, but seeing as it is a chronic problem and has gotten into the state it current is in, even if the gluten was the root cause simply removing it is, by now (it seems) too late to make those things simply go away. (...and it's complicated by damage to some joints and muscular weaknesses from it being chronic for so long).
