Left Side Pain

Just curious if anyone else has this since it seems the right side pain got a lot of "me toos"!. :) I've been feeling odd in my left side. It isn't really pain, just feel more like... being poked with a finger in my innards. That is the side with my one remaining ovary so I'm going to ask for a thorough ovarian/uterine cancer screening. But sometimes it feels more like it might be intestinal.

I feel like my abdomen is definitely bloated still and I have been gluten free for 3 months, dairy free for a week.

Any ideas? I'd say it is usually about on the same level as my belly button but over to the left a couple of inches.

I HAVE PAIN ON MY LEFT SIDE JUST ABOUT WHERE YOU ARE SAYING AND SOMETIMES A BIT HIGHER. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TELL MOST OF THE TIME THAT MINE IS COMING FROM GAS. IF I TAKE SOME MAALOX OR GAS X IT SEEMS TO HELP AND I START TO PASS ALOT OF GAS, THEN THE PAIN GOES AWAY. YOU MIGHT TRY THIS, BUT DO GET IT CHECKED OUT. I HAD TALK TO MY GI DOCTOR ABOUT IT AND HE DID TAKE X-RAYS AND A LOT OF GAS POCKETS SHOWED UP ON THE X-RAYS. HE IS THE ONE THAT TOLD ME TO TAKE THE GAS X OR MAALOX. GOOD LUCK B)

I get that when I have gluten, and for me, it is gas....it goes "away" after a while.....lol....

I'm a left side pain person.

I suffer from lots of gas bubbles and get pains anywhere from the lower abdomen up to the armpit and pectoral area. I've been to the Dr. many times and even wore a Halter monitor for 24-hrs to check-out the old ticker and everything is fine (with the exception of the gas pockets). I hope that as my intestine heals I notice less pains and get back to feeling like a "normal" person again.

Can anyone else relate?

THAT IS HOW I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE CELIAC, WAS HAVING SUCH PAINS THAT I WAS SENT FOR A HEART STRESS TEST DOPLER TEST ETC. HEART CHECKED OUT OK AND THEN THE DID X-RAYS AND FOUND ALL THE GAS POCKETS. THEN OFF FOR A ENDOSCOPY AND BLOOD TEST. THOSE GAS POCKETS CAN REALLY GET YOUR ATTENTION AND DOES FEEL LIKE IT COULD BE THE HEART DEPENDING ON WHERE THE POCKETS OF GAS ARE AT THE TIME. MUST SAY THAT I AM NOT HAPPY AT ALL ABOUT HAVING CELIAC, BUT IN AWAY IT WAS A RELIEF THAT THIS WAS MY PROBLEM AND NOT MY HEART. HUSBAND HAD TRIPLE BY-PASS AND I WAS SCARED TO DEATH WHEN THEY STARTED DOING ALL THOSE HEART TEST REAL FAST.

I am going on my 11th year with this left side pain under my ribs. I have been gluten free for three weeks now and accidentally ingested it today and the left side pain came back with it. If you have not tired gluten free, it is worth a try to get rid of this pain

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
