Yes it’s so much better and not nearly as painful.  However like today zero gluten and maybe I ate too much food but the acid reflux is bad.  Is it the over eating?  I apparently need to change up something.  I’ve been gluten free since 10-28-20.  I get the feeling of stuck food and have the burps like crazy.  Some advice would be welcome!

You may have another issue such as SIBO causing the acid reflux. Are you on any medication for the acid reflux? Have you made any dietary changes to address the reflux such as eliminating caffeine, tomatoes and citrus? Overeating and obesity can certainly contribute to acid reflux.

Also, I would suggest elevating the head of your bed.

I don't think that, if you have celiac disease, being gluten-free for only a couple of months is enough time to reverse your symptoms. When you say "like today zero gluten," I get the impression that you may not be strict enough with your diet. If you have celiac disease you need to be 100% gluten-free. Could you still be getting gluten in your diet?

After reading responses I appreciate the imput.  I am however 100% not eating gluten and have not since October 28.(I read labels very carefully and am not even eating Chinese food because of soy sauce we have not found gluten free as of yet but I am looking) I did not however realize that I could also have other digestion issues with certain foods.  I have been having issues apparently with lactose(after 2 bad bouts after consuming milk and ice cream was the latest) as well; so as of today the 6th of January, I am also going lactose free.  I have re-joined WW as I also need to lose the weight I had lost (regained some back) as that also is an issue with me (the overeating part)   I do realize this is not a quick process for me as I have had intolerence for over 15 years.  I am over 50 which also could mean this will take longer to completely heal.  I appreciate the great imput!  Thank you.

Some starting the gluten-free diet tips for the first 6 months:

Get tested before starting the gluten-free diet.
Get your vitamin/mineral levels tested also.
Don't eat in restaurants
Eat only whole foods not processed foods.  That means meats, veggies, eggs, nuts and fruit.
Eat only food you cook yourself, think simple foods, not gourmet meals.
Take probiotics.
Take gluten-free vitamins.
Take digestive enzymes.
Avoid dairy if it causes symptoms.
Avoid sugars and starchy foods. They can cause bloating.
Avoid alcohol.
Watch out for cross contamination.

Some lipsticks and lipbalms contains gluten. Facial powders could also be a culprit.
Or it could be traces of gluten. Some celiacs can't handle even an microscopic amount. I'm one of them. Glucose syrup, dextrose and maltodextrin can be made from wheat starch. Most celiacs can handle the tiny tiny amount of gluten that might be left, but some cannot.
Try to exclude all foods with those ingredients if it's not specified that it's made from corn.

I read that if you have a elevated certain type of anitbody level it may mean you're very sensitive to gluten

Many factors contribute to acid reflux. Some have been mentioned above by fellow friends, and I would like to add a few. I also have acid reflux but it is managed now. Acid reflux can be caused by certain healthy foods.

Fatty foods like fried foods and even avocado can trigger acid reflux because they take longer for the stomach to digest. If you eat healthy fats, please eat a moderate amount for the wellness of your stomach. 

Chocolates, especially dark ones are high in cocoa content. They relax the LES of the esophagus and promote acid reflux. Try to limit your intake of dark chocolate. 

Another food that relaxes your LES is mint.

Overeating is certainly a factor too.

Exactly. Elevating the head of the bed works wonders for people who have acid reflux mostly at night time. I experienced this myself.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Matthias · Posted

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By trents · Posted

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
