I have been gluten-free for almost 2 years now, diagnosed celiac back in 2018. I notice that most of the time when i haven't eaten in hours, i get a pain in my and on the right side right under where my ribs end. a lot of people online say it could be the gallbladder, but I had my gallbladder us about 2 years ago and it was normal. Is there anything else that could be causing this? It's the same place/type of pain I feel when I've been glutened, but it'll have been hours where nothing has gone po. anyone have any other ideas?

Welcome to the forum. Note that I converted your post to lower case for all capital letters, as all caps is widely considered on the Internet to be yelling. I recommend all lower case instead.

I will assume that you are not accidentally eating gluten, which could cause this, but since it happens on an empty stomach it makes me wonder if it could be an ulcer, or bacterial overgrowth. I would definitely check in with your doctor to rule out some things. It may be time to get a scope done. 

You may also want to rule out other dietary intolerance issues by keeping a food diary to see if there is a link to certain foods you eat.

I also support Admin's thoughts. I know food intolerances can cause in pain my stomach and gi tract as well.

Welcome to the forum and best wishes.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By trents · Posted

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      I was diagnosed at 18 months old with celiac and lived without wheat, rye, oats, and barley as instructed by my doctor, Dr. Katz at Boston Children's Hospital in the 60's and 70's. I don't agree nor recommend doctors removing oats from restriction, certified gluten-free or not.  I have eaten certified gluten free oats and have had the usual reactions to gluten.  Please reconsider this with newly diagnosed patients.

      European travel with Celiac Disease

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that the trip went well, and the general consensus I hear about gluten-free travel in Europe, including my own experiences, is that it is much easier done in comparison to traveling and eating gluten-free in the USA.

      Safely home from my recent trip to the UK. I had zero gut issues while traveling around this pretty country. Our tour leader was very good at making sure the 2 of us with gluten issues on our tour were well taken care of.  We often got our meals before the rest of the group and adaptations to the menu for us were well thought out and very tasty. I just wish restaurants here in the USA took as much pride in making food that everyone can enjoy. Many of the hotels and pubs we ate at had numerous options that were safe for us with wheat/gluten restrictions to eat.
