Does any diagnosed Celiac out there in the message board also have "irritable bowel syndrome" that sort of goes along with the celiac?

...?? Wondering...

A large number of us were mis-diagnosed with this. :angry: IBS is a diagnosis that basically stands for "I BE Stumped" it's given when doctors can not find a cause for problems.... Perhaps because they don't look for food intolerances, whoops maybe it should stand for "I Be Stupid" :lol:

I would have answered this differently a few months ago, but I have been having major IBS stuff again and now that I have had an endoscopy and colonoscopy while in the midst of having uncomfortable IBS and they've seen nothing, not even inflammation, I really don't know. I have eliminated many foods from my diet and don't believe any of the remaining foods are problems for me. I have been living under stress the last few months, and this has been when this IBS has been affecting me.

Because of other mood symptoms, my docs are thinking of re-diagnosing me as bipolar which I am not excited about at all. But having done research I see many correlations with IBS, fibromyalgia, and bipolar that would all explain what is going on with me. If I can find a way out of this without meds I'll be happiest. But right now I am trying to feel better and it seems no matter how strict my diet, what foods I cut out, I am still destined to have IBS. I have been on ativan for the past couple of weeks and the IBS has been fairly non-existent.

Anyway, I think there are multiple reasons these things happen to us.

I have both celiac and IBS; however, my doctor told me that my IBS was induced by having celiac disease.

Basically, I have an irritable bowel when I have gluten or dairy.

IBS = Multiple food allergies and the pain that comes with

Multiple food allergies = Leaky gut

Every coeliac, on the sick phase, have a leaky gut, have multiple food allergies...so i guess we could say have IBS to.

I agree, I think this is what my doctor was trying to tell me. Eating gluten causes the intestines to be super sensitive to food, which is an irritated bowel.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the...

One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!
