Rapid Weight Loss and Overall Food Intolerance ?

I got diagnosed with celiacs near the end of 2021 and immediately went gluten free. it was pretty easy, since i never really had issues w dairy meat anything like that. until last month ahh.

my stomach cannot handle ANYTHING. no meat, no dairy, no nothing without painful stabbing gut and behind the rib pains, impediment sprint to the bathroom, and stomach gurgles. louddd stomach gurgles. and moderate uncomfortable bloating. i’m super safe about gluten, i have my own toaster own utensils pans everything. even special gluten free seasoning. so i don’t know what’s up and it’s frustrating because i LOVEE food, but i can’t eat food without being in immense pain and chillin by a bathroom for an hour. 

i’m also losing weight pretty rapidly, im 17 and 5’2 and i went from 125 pre diagnosis to 108 now, which is scaring me. i know i’m young and weight fluctuates and that’s normal but ah idk what’s going on and wanted to know that if i’m alone or not with this.

Hi gigib55. Welcome to the forum. Chronic vitamin and mineral deficiencies are common. Choline deficiency causing gall bladder problems. As a single egg supplies about 20–25% of your daily requirement, two large eggs provide almost half. Choline is a large part of bile which is needed to process fat.  Increasing folate can compensate for choline deficiency. When you stop eating fortified wheat products you don't get the added folic acid, so the already low intake found in many Americans diet is insufficient. It takes the equivalent of 4 eggs or 15 ounces of steak or 10 cups of cooked broccoli to reach the minimum (100% RDA 450 mg) recommended intake of choline. The RDA upper limit is around 27 eggs a day, 3500 mg and the negative side effects (low blood pressure, fishy body odor) are not usually seen at less than 7000 mg a day. A bottle of Phosphatidyl Choline or Choline may help. Eat lots of leafy greens.

CHOLINE DEFICIENCY IS A THING. HERE’S WHY YOU NEED IT

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
