Diagnosis???

About a year ago I went to the doctor about severe pelvic pain typically around the time of my periods or when my apps would tell me to expect my period but I have PCOS so there’s many times I’d go months without actually bleeding but still get the pain right around that time. I went in suspecting endometriosis but my doctor ended up finding celiac disease
Just recently my grandma on moms side got diagnosed with colon cancer and got a biopsy and they found endometriosis.
I have heard there can be a connection between celiac and endometriosis so just looking to find any advice. Should I still try to push for that diagnosis? I’m still experiencing the pelvic pain but have cut out gluten completely
ETA: have dealt with severe pain pretty consistently outside of just the time around when my period should come. Severe pain with penetrative sex, also bladder pain pretty consistently but negative for UTI commonly

Question for the ladies (AFAB)

I was diagnosed with celiac less than a year ago. I went to the doctor about severe pelvic pain typically around the time of my periods or when my apps would tell me to expect my period but I have PCOS so there’s many times I’d go months without actually bleeding but still get the pain right around that time. I went in suspecting endometriosis but my doctor ended up finding celiac.

Canadian celiacs

Any Canadian celiacs out there been successful in claiming disability?
I’ve gotten the blood test and scope/biopsy to confirm my diagnosis
I am aware of the tax credit for it but I have heard about a possibility of claiming disability if I get a doctor to fill out forms for me.

Employment insurance question

So this is going to be a bit of a longer one but any advice would be much appreciated! (I am planning on contacting Service Canada tomorrow but it is late and looking for advice before-hand)

So bit of back story, my husband works in the trades and the company he was working for had several branches but it’s a small business just two locations in Alberta. He was working at one branch when it got shut down due to unforeseen circumstances and his boss offered him a few weeks of work at the other branch (7 hours away) while he looked for another job in our home town (August 2025) so he travelled and was staying in a travel trailer provided by the boss at this new job location while I stayed behind in our home town and continued working at my job. After a few weeks the manager at the location my husband was working at really liked him and wanted to keep him there and the boss offered to help him with relocating to this new location (September 2025) I put in my two weeks notice at my job, last day dating September 28, 2025, but was told to still apply for EI considering I was leaving my job due to unforeseen circumstances, being that my husbands work was being relocated which was one of the approved reasons according to service Canada.
I moved down to stay with my husband but it’s a small business town we moved to, and not many houses were available so we continued living in the travel trailer for a few months until we found suitable housing, during this time I recieved a single call at around 5:30am MST in which I didn’t answer and hadn’t checked my voicemail as I had been quite busy dealing with the life adjustment. A few weeks later I login to MSCA and see my EI claim had been denied due to not enough information. Come to find out that phone call was from a claims adjuster (I believe, or something along those lines from service Canada) (mid October 2025) I tried calling service Canada but got stuck in a queue and never ended up getting through and again life was busy so I never ended up getting through to them (yes I understand this was my mistake for not getting through to them then) I was applying for work in this small town and it did take a while as we had clearly just moved in, and in this town everyone knows everyone so nobody would call, until I eventually got employment in January 2026, and in between October to January we ended up finding housing, getting our UHaul and moving 7 hours away from home which was lots of work on its own.
Now months later I’m doing research on if it’s possible to still receive benefits for that time backdated, and things I’m finding online seem to be saying I can but I do see mixed things on it as well. I’m just looking to see if anyone has experienced anything similar. I do have receipts of our U-Haul, my job applications from those months (being ready and willing to work) and other proof of the relocation for my husbands job, just again looking for any advice.
Willing to answer any questions in the comments this was a bit of a confusing time and pretty hard to explain everything here
Thanks!!
