My Problems When Glutened

When I get glutened I have a lot of intestinal problems, the worst is like I have spasms in my colon and it makes me feel like I have to go to the bathroom all the time (poop). Some days it gets so bad, I don't know if I should spend the whole day in the bathroom or not. I work a customer service job and my anxieties really get me on those days, cause I don't know if I should run to the bathroom or if it is just some pain or gas. Do any of you feel this way when you get glutened? I feel like I am the only one with this very embarrassing problem.

You're not the only one with this problem...I can totally relate. I'm new to the diet, but have had these issues twice in the past 2 weeks....twice I have been glutened. For me it lasts for like 5-6 hours at a time before something actually "happens" and I see relief. I was kept awake Saturday morning from this...every time I'd doze off, there it was, the feeling like I needed to run to the bathroom. I go in there, and gas, but that's it. An embarrassing enough problem if it happens during the day (at work)!!! I'd suggest really really looking at everything closely to keep from glutening yourself, but perhaps someone else that has been dealing with this has a solution to relieve it? I'm sure you and I would BOTH appreciate quicker relief!

Any chance you could get a script for an anti-spasmodic, like Bentyl?

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
