i have been having health issues for a while so i'm finally giving up gluten to see if i'm gluten sensitive and if that's the issue. it's been 48 hours since i've had gluten and prior to this point i had been constipated for months. in the last two days i've gone 6 or 7 times. is my body getting rid of all the bad stuff like a detox? am i doing something wrong or is my body telling me this is right??

If you aren't constipated anymore - maybe its just clearing out the poop to try to come to a more "normal" amount?  

You might want to run, today, to your doctor and get tested for Celiac before its too late.  I think its important to know how serious you need to be about your gluten free diet and to be aware of the other issues that Celiac may have caused.

I would suggest staying on gluten and going and getting tested now. You have to be eating it daily for 12 weeks for the blood test, and 2 weeks for the endoscope.

This clearing your doing is a sign that gluten is effecting your diet somehow, now if celiac disease or NCGS I do not know but you should be tested prior to trying out the gluten-free diet. NOTE there a bunch you will have to learn about diet, cross contamination, etc. This is no "OH a bit is alright" or "Fad Diet" this is a life changing issues that can lead to much improved health and healing if your have the disease. My issues slowly progressed over years then hit like a hammer when I got older with severe issues. I was prior to all this for years having issues of constipation for 4-10 days average and thought it was normal.

No matter the outcome this is a great community to help you out on your gluten issues. But first really go see about the test and talking to your doctor. MAKE SURE you get the FULL CELIAC blood test.

When I consumed gluten sometime my stool would be so hard it was like crayon.  Eliminating at times would be difficult.  Alternating between that and frank diarrhea.

      Thank you.  I’ll be sure to look into those.

      I was diagnosed with microscopic colitis and celiac a couple of years ago.  The GI doctor prescribed a course of budesonide, which moderately helped until I tapered off.    After a lot of ups and downs over the course of 2 years, I am finally in microscopic colitis remission.  Since I am also diabetic, I was started on metformin and Jardiance.  Metformin by itself helped moderately.  I added Jardiance and I was much better.  I stopped the metformin and relapsed and when I added it back, I regained remission.  I think metformin and Jardiance helped my colitis because they reduce inflammation in the gut.  Metformin is known to favorably modulate the gut microbiome and reduce inflammatory cytokines.  Similarly, emerging evidence supports the anti-inflammatory properties of SGLT2 inhibitors like Jardiance.  Once I was on both, the diarrhea stopped completely, even though nothing else ever worked long-term.  There is a Facebook group that can be very informative and helpful.  Look for "Microscopic Colitis and Lymphocytic Colitis Support Group.  You will find that members of the Facebook group identify other pathways to remission of microscopic colitis.

      Hello, @Mrs Wolfe, I crushed three vertebrae moving a chest of drawers.  I take a combination of Thiamine Vitamin B1, Vitamin B12, and Pyridoxine B6.  Together these vitamins have an analgesic effect.  I think it works better than OTC pain relievers.   I also like  "Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets" .   It's all three vitamins together in one pill.  Works wonderfully!

      It's the Potassium Iodide in the HRT pills that is triggering Dermatitis Herpetiformis and the increased IGG levels.   The thyroid is stimulated by the Potassium Iodide, which stimulates immune cells to make more IGG antibodies.   Thiamine Vitamin B1 helps the thyroid function.  I like Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax.
