Gluten free for arthritis pain management

A few years back, I contracted the parvovirus, which causes Fifth Disease in children. In adults, it can be more debilitating. I get arthritis like symptoms, joint pain, fatigue, and swelling, and going gluten free helps immensely. I've gone off the wagon for the past year or so, but have had another flare up so its time to go GF again, maybe even permanently this time.
My husband's bypass surgery in 2011 has us already eating healthy GF grains, fruits, vegies, and lean protein, so I'm almost there in terms of getting rid of most products that contain gluten. Anyone out there with a similar arthritis situation where going gluten free helped?
