Severe acute abdominal pain

Hello everyone 

I’ve posted here recently - thanks for all your replies at that time. 
 

I’m just out of hospital after my 5th admission in 9 months (4 of these admissions in last two months) with severe acute abdominal pain. It’s epigastic in nature and slightly to the right hand side. It’s not gallstones and liver / pancreas are fine (so says the blood work). 
 

Has anyone experienced severe acute tummy pain with coeliac? I have low iron and folate as well as lots of gas, reduced appetite and noisy stomach. 
 

Thanks

The pain I had was primarily in the middle-right area of my abdomen. How long have you been gluten-free, and is any gluten getting into your diet? Have you tried eliminating other things like cow's milk?

i had pain just like Scott before i got diagnosed 5 months ago - it was a pinchy stabbing pain in my right mid abdomen by my belly then i began feeling it under my right rib area thinking gall bladder issue but had ultrasound and all normal including liver and kidney - i too had a noisy tummy as well - i saw a GI dr and he recommended an endoscopy and celiac was confirmed and then blood test sealed the deal - go see a GI dr

Thanks both. I am not gluten free at present as still in the process of a diagnosis. I am low on iron folate and copper. 

 

I have bought a home test for coeliac (the top test in the photo) and I’ll post the results here... can you see a VERY faint positive? To the left of the T.

i suggest you see a dr and get a full panel of blood work - i was also low in iron ferritin levels low and always tired all my life - got dx in jan - endoscopy and blood test and following gluten free diet since - i take probiotics vitamin d and iron and sometimes magnesium - i feel so much better since

      Here's one more that shows Lysine also helps alleviate pain! Exploring the Analgesic Potential of L-Lysine: Molecular Mechanisms, Preclinical Evidence, and Implications for Pharmaceutical Pain Therapy https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12114920/

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
