i have to eat every 45 minutes or else i get pains so thats not a problem. As for applesauce what brands? and applesauce/bannanas thats alot of fiber wont that plug me up?? i read that motts natural is gluten-free but i cant find that in any stores around me.

i am thinkign about going on a simple elimanation/rotation diet after i talk to my doctor on wensday, but i dont wanna throw myself onto a very low food diet yet becuse i need all the energy i can get, after tomorrow i work 9 days strait 4:30am-3pm gonna be hell for aweek

Lister all Delmonte fruits and veggies are gluten-free. This includes the ones with jello and they may make applesauce as well. If you can't find Motts look for an applesauce that is just apples and call the company to make sure. Most should be gluten-free if they don't have 'flavorings' added.

ok so i ate some grapes and my stomic feels like crap..... :(

Lister. I think you should have a h-pylori test. This is the bacteria that most ulcers are caused by. I also think you should look into candida overgrowth. This is common especially in the gluten intolerant. For starters, do a simple test tomorrow morning before you eat or drink anything. Fill a clear glass with water, then spit in it. If over the next half hour the spit sinks to the bottom or develops long tenacle like things or makes the water cloudy I would suspect candida. You can read about candida overgrowth on web.

Lister Rising Star

already read about it, if ispit into a cup first thing in the morning withen less then 10 seconds it has tenticals and then the water gets clouly about 10 seconds after that, i have also filled out online tests for it and scored 76 points about the YOU HAVE IT mark

but i have had bactera tests and they came back negative so i dont know how to convince my doctor to do any more tests for it

loraleena Contributor

Candida is not going to show up on a bacteria test. Check into Great Smokies labs about stool tests. I would assume you have it based on what you have already done. It can difficult to get accurate candida tests. Look into diet modification for candida and supplements to help. There are many out there. I am currently about to use Threelac. Dealing with some other issues first though.

do i need to run it by my doc first? or just do it?

anyone get what sounds and feels like poping noises from there stomic? also my stomic seems to burn alot... just wondering been on the diet for 3 months and they dont seem to be leaving

Don't have the poping sounds, but the burning feeling.... You mentioned Stomach. Burning in the stomach is normally acid, could be too much from nerves, etc. I used to get a warm sensation in my lower intestines, but have not had that for some time now.

Do you have insurance? If so your doctor can order the test. Then you pick it up and do it at home. There is a paper that you fill out and send to your insurance to get reimbursed. If money is a problem, and I can relate, then I would just go with the tests you have done on your own and try some natural ways to eliminate candida. I am going to use Threelac (find it on the web). I really suggest you get online and read all about it and the diet as well. With Threelac you don't have to do a strict diet, but you really need to stop refined sugars!

Lister,

Last summer I was having the burning rumbling pain in my stomach you mention and it never bothered me at night either. As soon as I got up and started moving through the day,it started again. Eating large meals gave me relief too. I was sure I had an ulcer! Had an upper GI done, and doc said no sign of ulcer but the lining of my stomach looked really irritated. Went home on proton pump inhibitors feeling discouraged. I had always been lactose intolerant for years and had that under control so didn't think that was the problem. But after food journaling, low and behold, It was milk! Now even a few drops gave me the above mentioned symptoms (which are different than the ones I used to get with lactose intolerance). So I cut out milk and 4 weeks later went of meds. and 2 weeks later all was fine! I think I have read in some of your posts that you suspect milk as a problem. Try cutting it out. Definiately keep a detailed food journal of what you are eating right now. Also, give it a month of no milk before you expect to see the pain go away it that is what is causing it. Hope this helps. Also, the food journal may help you to better understand the appearance of your stools.

unfortunatly i have not had milk/ or casein for 3 months already, my doc wants me to start eating products with milk now though, so i dont know anymore- he says everything is caused by the healing process but of course i dont belive him

Sarah8793 Enthusiast

Lister,

Sounds like milk isn't the problem then. Okay, well here is another suggestion. Before I found out it was milk for me last summer I was sure I had an ulcer. Before I had the upper gi done I took a breath test for the helicobacter (probably not spelled right) bacteria. This is the main cause for ulcers in people and cause a lot of problems. Mine of course was negative but you might consider asking your doctor about this. If you have this it can cause ulcers and it can usually be cleared up by taking a round of 2-3 antibioitics together. Hang in there, it seems like forever right now, but this too shall end.

The only time I had popping noises coming from my stomach was when I was pregnant.

It could be gas moving around. I would mention it to your dr the next time you see him/her.

Could you tell me if coffeemate or cremora is allowed?

G'day Lister.

I have similar burning sensations too from time to time ranging through my duodenum, small intestines, large intestines and rectum. I cycle between diarrhoea, constipation and normal bowel movements (remission). There are times when I eat wheat containing foods or greasy foods and I feel sick/queasy and get burning sensations. I have been suffering from excess phlegm for six years but the digestive problems and cycles of depression/brain cloudiness did not appear until three years ago.

Nine months ago I was suffering badly from a druggish kind of drowsiness which really wiped me out. I figured excess mucus, sweatiness, drowsiness and queasiness were a result of excess toxins in the body (due to allergies or intolerance) as I had already endured diagnosis with food allergies to artificial colours, flavours and preservatives ten years before.

Thinking I needed to flush out toxins I decided to drink two types of tea: green tea with a high level of antioxidants and peppermint tea for cooling the digestive system. I even eat raw peppermint leaves from my garden when I have a stomach burn-up. If you don't like the taste of green tea go for a flavoured version. I found this has made a huge difference as I no longer get tired and I do have less phlegm.

Perhaps you could try drinking the tea to make your life a bit bearable while trying to find your diagnosis. I did find that after drinking the tea for months that my teeth started to stain a little but this was easily solved with a whitening toothpaste. Tomorrow I go for my endoscopy to find out the state of my stomach and whether or not I have gluten intolerance. I went for a week on a gluten-free diet a couple of months ago and it felt like an invisible weight had been taken off my shoulders - I was happy and thought much more clearly at work.

I hope the tea helps.

Hi Lister. I really feel for you as stomach burning is my main symptom, and just about everything irritates it. Don't know about the popping though, although I'm guessing trapped wind like others have siad. I've had ulcers ruled out via endo. My sister has similar symptoms and her endo showed up a hernia, which can cause those symptoms. As well as getting checked out, do try and go on a simple diet. I desperately need to, so maybe we can encourage each other! Fatty stuff is my main culprit, then there's anything acidic or spicey. More exercise is a good idea (I'm telling myself that too!). And small meals regularly. Also, do try to make sure you've removed all sources of gluten, as it may be your sore stomach is your main gluten reaction.

good luck!

Lister,

YES, I am having popping sounds and feelings from my stomach too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It feels and sounds like a bubble just popped in your stomach. And it sounds like (I'm not exaggerating) fireworks going on in my stomach. And sometimes there's bubbling sounds coming from my stomach. I too have burning sensations in my stomach too.

I feel tired and sleepy and exhausted no matter how many hours of sleep I get.. and my stomach kind of hurts too.

I need help and I feel just like you too! I'm fed up with this problem and this horrible life with this problem.

Especially when the noises are getting louder and more embarrassing!

In additition I have frequent bowel movements everyday (at least 3 times a day) and it feels like I am spending most of my time in the restroom instead of working :(

I NEED HELP AND IF YOU GET ANY INFORMATION OR FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM PLEASE PLEASE KEEP ME POSTED AND I WILL TRY TO DO THE SAME FOR YOU.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING YOUR PROBLEM... FEELS LIKE I HAVE SOMEBODY FOR SUPPORT!

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!

      Navigating medication safety with Celiac disease can be incredibly stressful, especially when dealing with asthma and severe allergies on top of it. While I don't have personal experience with the HealthA2Z brand of cetirizine, your caution is absolutely warranted. The inactive ingredients in pills, known as excipients, are often where gluten can be hidden, and since the FDA does not require gluten-free labeling for prescription or over-the-counter drugs, the manufacturer's word is essential. The fact that you cannot get a clear answer from Allegiant Health is a significant red flag; a company that is confident its product is gluten-free will typically have a customer service protocol to answer that exact question. In situations like this, the safest course of action is to consider this product "guilty until proven innocent" and avoid it. A better alternative would be to ask your pharmacist or doctor to help you identify a major national brand of cetirizine (like Zyrtec) whose manufacturer has a verified, publicly stated gluten-free policy for that specific medication. It's not worth the risk to your health when reliable, verifiable options are almost certainly available to you. You can search this site for USA prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      What you're describing is indeed familiar to many in the Celiac community, especially in the early stages of healing. When the intestinal villi are damaged from Celiac disease, they struggle to properly digest and absorb fats, a condition known as bile acid malabsorption. This can cause exactly the kind of cramping and spasms you're seeing, as undigested fats can irritate the sensitive gut lining. It is highly plausible that her reactions to dairy and eggs are linked to their higher fat content rather than the proteins, especially since she tolerates lean chicken breast. The great news is that for many, this does improve with time. As her gut continues to heal on a strict gluten-free diet, her ability to produce the necessary enzymes and bile to break down fats should gradually return, allowing her to slowly tolerate a wider variety of foods. It's a slow process of healing, but your careful approach of focusing on low-fat, nutrient-dense foods like seeds and avocado is providing her system the best possible environment to recover. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: Thank you for sharing your story—it's a valuable insight for other parents navigating similar challenges.

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.
