Hi. I am new to this forum and am currently undiagnosed. I am suspecting celiac is my problem, but also have read much on yeast overgrowth (Candida)...has anyone discovered they have both? I have many symptoms for both.

Welcome!
People who develop candida problems are people whose bodies are out of balance. You just don't get a candida overgrowth for no reason at all. So, yes, there are many celiacs who will develop a candida problem.
It can also be caused by heavy metal toxicity.
I just learned that fatty stools and stomach pain can also be caused by an overgrowth of bad bacteria in the gut. This is tested for by a stool test (bacteria, candida, and parasites all in one test).
If you have candida, you want to restrict simple carbs, especially sugar, and take probiotics.
