Started With Stomach Spasms & Internal 'throbbing' Again!

I was diagnosed almost 2 years ago, after being ill for some time and recently received a report saying my gut is healing well after further biopsies.

 

However, recently I have started with stomach cramps again, and 'throbbing' in stomach & lower down - the 'usual' trips to the bathroom etc.   I have started keeping a food journal again, but I'm mystified.  I have IBS as well, and can't tolerate dairy, I also have diabetes.  So I am going between blaming gluten, accidental dairy, not enough fibre and intolerance to sugar.  I have had problems with Metformin and have reduced it down to one a day, but my doctor will blow a gasket if she finds I've stopped taking it altogether plus my glucose will go through the roof.

 

Has anyone else had a similar problem, and has it sorted itself out?  I remember before I was diagnosed with Coeliac disease having a problem with something contaminated with milk, but didn't realise what it was that was making me ill until a supermarket store wrote to us to inform us of some accidental contamination they had found with dairy.  Fortunately for me at the time, I had a store loyalty card and that is how they knew we had purchased the product.

Spasms, throbbing, and gurgling are common these days with me, I bloated up over something.  My guess in this instance is too much sugar and an over run of bacteria, but I take my probiotics every day, so I am not sure.  I could have had an accidental CC.  As I type this my intestines are talking, so yeah, it happens.

Thank you, you have just reminded me that I used to take probiotics, but in recent months have stopped. For some reason, it hadn't occurred to me - this can happen when you have lots of health issues. I shall recommence to see what happens.

Your certain your not getting cc'd? My gurgling has completely stopped as well as the spasms since going gluten free but if I get cc'd or have dairy it comes right back!

I'm being open minded about everything at the moment. I am keeping a food journal to see if anything shows up on that.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
