Coeliac disease and lactose intolerant with severe bloating

[Donna 21]

Hi i am new to here. I have been diagnosed with coeliac disease for about 7 months and all was going well with my diet, 1 month ago i found out i have lactose intolerance too, so again changed my diet. 

I now follow a gluten and lactose free diet strictly, i also decided to follow a vegetarian diet very strictly. 

Your probably wondering what my issue is? Well now i will tell you, the reason for the vegetarian diet also is because i am suffering with severe abdominal bloating, i feel as if i am eating gluten all over again. I eat plant based foods limit my sugar in take as i don't have much choice because of the lactose in so many products so i only eat now and again wheat free, dairy free and gluten free deserts. Please someone help me with my issue or tell me if they are the same. It makes the top of my stomach look bloated, around the intestinal region.

It could just be gas and bloating, high fiber diets, diets high in carbs/starches/legumes, can cause bloating. SIBO or Candida can set in on damaged intestines and feed on sugar/carbs and cause bloating distention.
The Vegetarian diet might be backfiring there, have you tried a low carb diet of primarily meats, eggs, and some leafy greens?  The lower fiber carb diet will leave little to be fermented into gas or block the intestines. I have done a keto/vegetarian diet and there was more bloating gas. I have gone more carnivore and there is much less bloating. Also if you have SIBO or Candida you have to starve them

My top suggestion for tracking down the culprit, is a food dairy and a elimination diet. It could also be a new food intolerance or sensitivity. I have a whole list of ones that cause issues.

Hello. Thank you for answering my question. I will definitely look in to this, i did have a feeling it could be excess gases, i am on lansoprazole for reflux so maybe they aren't enough on there own.

Hi, i heard about shampoos etc but didn't think much about it but will definitely look in to it, thanks. 

My bloating has subsided slightly snd this is since i change my vitamins from Holland and barrett to some online which are free from everything, nothing added to them and are still high in strength. Maybe you should look into that too. 

Keep me updated hun x
