Coffee / Caffeine?

I was diagnosed about 4 months ago and have been eating gluten free since then. I always loved coffee and caffeine but I've realised it reallly doesn't seem to agree with my digestion. Within about 20 minutes of drinking even a cup of tea I will desperately need to go, I don't mind this but even after pooping the contents of my entire digestive system I will still feel like I need to go for a couple of hours despite nothing being there, aswell as having uncomfortable churning in my stomach. Does anyone else have this reaction to coffee? It sucks because I really love a nice strong cup in the morning. Will I be able to tolerate it in the future after healing has happened maybe?

I never had an issue with coffee or tea, but I bet if you give it up for a while and allow time for healing, you'll get that coffee back!

Try switching to Decaf...I know, I know...but sometimes it's the caffeine that is the problem and not so much the coffee.  Coffee does have an enema effect so that could be part of your problem.  Are you drinking plain coffee or is it flavored or are you adding anything to the coffee?

I gave up coffee after it gave up on me.  I can drink tea ok now but it took some years for that to happen.  So, maybe you'll get coffee back.  Tea ain't so bad tho. :)

I drink coffee with no issues, but cannot drink tea, as I get cramps from tea

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
