Where Does It Hurt?

I'm curious about everyone's stomach symptoms, if you have them, and where it hurts.

I won't tell you mine, until later, because I don't want to influence your answers. But if

you could tell me where your stomach hurts and exactly how it hurts, (ache, stabbing pains etc...)

I'd be very much interested.

Stomach: more 'nervous' or 'tight', sometimes so hungry I think I'll throw up, wake up feeling ookily.

Abdomen: bloated beyond belief, pressure pain, often stabbing pain in one or another part, pain from bloating to where I can't stand up straight.

But most of that is gone now.

Ok, my pain moves around. Sometimes it's up high at the base of my rib cage on the right side.

Sometimes it's down low on the right, where you'd think your appendix would hurt. It's usually a stabbing or cramping type pain. Sometimes it feels like it's my stomach that hurts. Sometimes I feel like it's much lower than that...

SEVERE bloating, cramping in lower abdomen, gurgling noises & feelings -- fluttering feeling almost in what must be my lower intestines, gas (blah), bathroom visits either 3 times a day or not for days....

FUN STUFF!

Wow, I could have written that. My lower abdomen always feels like there is a way-too-small elastic band around it. My stomach/intestines gurgle constantly, and I'm always SO darn hungry! 75% of the time, it's extreme discomfort. The rest of the time, it's just pure pain.

I get severe bloating (to the point where I can't wear my pants), and cramping like no tomorrow.

It runs from the front to the back and feels like I'm in labour (only 10 times worse).

Sometimes it's so bad I feel like I'm going to be sick to my stomach from the pain.

The pain often runs up my back (that's probably muscle spasms).

It's usually accompanied shortly after with sever diarrhea

The whole process usually starts about 20 mintues after ingesting gluten (are really problem if I'm out).

It's usually accomapnied with sweats and shaking as well (again probably muscle spasms).

Never a happy experience. I usually come away so exhaused I have to lie down.

Good luck with your 'survey'?

OH my gosh!!! I was actually going to say that if often feels like I'm "in labor" -- I've had 3 children, and sometimes...the pain from the bloating/gas issues are as bad if not worse than early labor!!!! BLECH!

Hi Jerry. Hope that I can help. I started having pain in the area around my belly button and lower. It wasn't sharp but it felt like I did 1,000 sit-ups the day before. Just very tense and deep pain.

Hi Jerry,

I am VERY new to all this but, have you had a Cat Scan of your Gall bladder? Being located in the area in which you discribe "On the right below your rib cage" just makes me wonder?? I just had to have mine removed, and had NO IDEA as to it's location, and was having pain, in the area you have indicated and also between my shoulder blades..It was loaded with stones and hard as a rock and not functioning...Just a thought?? Who knows??

Good luck to you at seeking answers.

Netty

I describe my pain as if someone has been hitting me in the stomache, so it's more of an ache than a sharp pain and it's ALWAYS accompanied by severe bloat and the bloat is above the waiste.

Anyone have a tenderness (pain when you press on it) kind of pain?

Yes, I sure do. That's part of the reason why I describe it as if someone has punched me.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system
