Pain moving through abdomen

I don't know if I'm celiac but gluten-free diet helps me. I get lots of pain and diarrhea if I eat anything with gluten or oats.

I haven't been glutened in a long time but something got me good.

The pain at first started like normal-i get back pain on my right side.  But this has been going on for days, and the pain has moved to different places all through my abdomen.  Now its lower right in the front and a bit tender.  Does this sound familiar?

This does sound familiar; a lot like something that I've faced numerous times as a celiac. Gluten allergies and celiac disease can often cause GI issues like diarhea and constipation. The pain moving through the abdomen makes me think that there is some build up and things are having difficulty moving along. Does the pain feel sharp? For me the air bubbles moving through my gut feel like claws when I get sick. 

Also I don't know exactly why, but when I get really sick my lower left side really hurts. I don't have any insight on this, but it may be similar to the pain on your right - perhaps that's where things have settled and your gut is in especial pain.

If your symptoms continue you may want to discuss them with your doctor, because it could also be something else. Let us know how things go.

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis

      Thank you for all of these helpful answers! I really appreciate them. I typically eat 2 eggs every morning, so I'm going to stop those, in case the iodine is an issue. And, I'm checking all of my medications and supplements for gluten. I will try some of these other suggestions, too. Thank you all. I feel like I have a little bit of hope that this can get...

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      Hi Leenora, thanks so much for sharing your journey. Yes, I am based in Ireland and I think the primary care docs should know better here. Like yourself my IGA was undetectable. I do not have any major GI symptoms as a result my doc would only order total IGA as the next step and not IGG - so frustrating. I am ready to start a gluten free diet which will...

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis

      I would not be surprised if that is the case. I briefly took doxycycline and it cleared up but I also stopped eating oats at the same time so hard to say what did it. And I understand doxy is nasty stuff. I had to take it with yogurt because it messed up my stomach so badly.

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis

      I would hesitate to recommend tetracycline or any antibiotic as a long term therapy option because of the negative impact it has on the gut biome. I took it for years as a teenager for acne and I'm convinced it was a contributing factor in my having developed celiac disease.

      Multiple symptoms and mixed provider responses

      By DJBC · Posted

      So I’ve had horrible stomach problems for as long as I can remember. Diarrhea is usually every other day at least, sometimes worse, sometimes a little better. It can happen within 5 minutes of finishing eating most things. I’m also constantly tired, I haven’t gained a pound since I was 18 (I’m 26), my memory is trash, and the thing that really made me wonder was an absolutely massive rash I got around an hour after eating biscuits and gravy. The only thing is it wasn’t on both sides of my body, it was only on the left side of my torso, but it took up about half of my whole side and had an insane amount of inflammation the second day, and the third day all the fluid fell with gravity to my lower stomach and back. The rash was not patchy but one massive dark red spot, itchy, and painful. I got the IgA test and the normal range was 61-356, and my result was 336. This was a while ago and all the notes said was “good news, no celiac”. I have the HLA-DQ tests coming up, so we’ll see. Does this sound like possible celiac or am I blowing this out of proportion?

      Hi Leenora, thanks so much for sharing your journey. Yes, I am based in Ireland and I think the primary care docs should know better here. Like yourself my IGA was undetectable.  I do not have any major GI symptoms as a result my doc would only order total IGA as the next step and not IGG - so frustrating. I am ready to start a gluten free diet which will hopefully help with nutrient absorption and ultimately overall health. As someone who has already gone through a breast cancer journey I would like to be assured that my immune system is working optimally. My big concern is around Alzheimers as my Mom was diagnosed with Meniers at my age and developed memory decline in her mid 70s. She has an Alzheimer's diagnosis but her neurologist thinks it is more short term memory loss. Since neurological health is a concern of mine I have ordered the B vitamins recommended by kitty kitty on this thread. I have upped my VitD supplements and haven't had a vertigo attack in 2 weeks. I agree with your observation that these things are all connected - they likely are very much connected with gut health. I am also planning on ordering germline genetic testing to check my pre-dispositions.
