I have the pills, my dr said it will also help with the acid and stomach pain. I haven't been able to leave the house the last 2 days because of the pain :angry: I have no idea why I'm this sick

Betty--I hope this med will help, it seems like you've been sick for a while now. Let me know how you're doing. And, thanks for the nice PM--that was so sweet of you :)

Does the doctor have any idea why you're so sick?

hi patti, I've had every test the drs can think of..slow digestion, gerd and a [borderline positive] celiac blood test...still having quite a bit of pain..I am better than before going gluten-free. I just can't figure this one out, my belly was feeling pretty good, then within 10 minutes a couple days ago I was in sever pain, it's killing me and the grumbling and bloating is awful

I did make a chicken dinner with soy and a rice dish with soy but that was sunday night, I don't think it would take 2 days to bother me

I keep thinking about eating gluten again just to see if I'm any worse than I already am, but my dr feels the blood test was enough of a confirmation, when I took the test I was about 90% gluten-free so we were very surprise to see a borderline positive, even the dr expected it to be negitive..he said "he believes it would have been even higher if I was eating full gluten"

I'm at a loss and to be honest very scared and had enough of this pain

well, I said too much lol

thanks for your kindness

You did not say too much! I was impressed that your doctor took the borderline test seriously--and even admitted it would have been higher if you were still on gluten. I was having similar things going on in December--after being gluten-free for a few months. I had D, but worse, I began to have pain--which I really didn't have before I was dx. Anyway, through a lot of trial and error, I found that the rice and other grains and starches (tapioca) I was using in place of wheat were the problem. Have you tried cutting out grains and see if that helps? I really do much better when I don't eat them at all. I've switched to potato-based or almond milks instead of rice. Just a thought :)

ebrbetty Rising Star

I will try cutting out my rice, I've been eating rice everyday since going gluten-free. what do you have for a side dish with dinner? I used to have baked potato with lots of butter, but the butter gives me heartburn...this is not easy and when I'm in pain like this I get scared and want to give up...thanks for the help

hugs :D

I know what you mean, potatoes can get "old" after a while! I eat potatoes frequently--but I make them in different ways. Also, sweet potatoes. Last week, for the first time, I made spaghetti squash, and it was pretty good! What finally made me suspect the rice, was that I knew SOMETHING was making me sick, and I thought--well, what do I eat every day? So I thought, I have rice bread, rice milk, cereals and cookies made with rice and plain rice in a meal. Needless to say, I had to replace those things, but the result was worth it. I don't know if grains are your problem, but I think it may be a good place to start. It can't hurt ;)

ebrbetty Rising Star

you're right patti, it can't hurt..the rice is the one thing I eat almost everyday. I will stay away from it and see if it helps

my thanks once again!

jerseyangel Proficient

Yes--try it for a few days at least--let me know how you do! :)

You might also want to look at the soy as what is making you so ill. And yes, it can take a couple of days after eating to start being sick.

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
