Unsure if I have it and what steps to take

Not completely. I've been dealing with chs for a decade, I defintely have it, I just might have celiac along with it. I've stopped quite a few times and usually felt better after about a month of no weed. I have self control issues though and always relapse and go back to everyday use and full on chs symptoms. It's cycle for me. Stop weed, feel better after a while, have a few months of no stomach issues, eventually start smoking again occasionally but then quickly fall back into problematic every day use and end up where I started, not being able to eat anything.

Where I'm at right now: Stopped smoking daily about two and a half months ago, but have smoked a few times over the past month. I'm not fully recovered from my chs symptoms at the moment but I'm not at my worst either. I'm well aware I need to stop smoking completely and that is the goal, but like I said I have self control and substance abuse issues. In the past I've always been able to eat as much gluten as I wanted when I had no chs symptoms without issue, but this time around it feels different. Lots of flatulence and diarrhea, and a different feeling in my stomach to the usual chs symptoms. I thought it might be underlying celiac that is only starting to surface now. It's all the celiac in my family that is making me think it might be that.

I should probably also mention I have a drinking problem and have been drinking about 500ml of vodka, or 8-12 beers every night over the past few months.
