Another Wierd Symptom....?!?

Has anyone ever had a feeling of numbness in their stomachs at night? When I was on gluten I use to wake up in the middle of the night and my stomach would feel numb...it was located mostly on the left side just below my rib cage. It is quite a weird feeling...I think I was just glutened yesterday...because I awoke with that wierd feeling again. It seems to go away as soon as I stand up and burp a handfull of times. Thanks...!

Well, although I did notice my stomach not feeling right if I had eaten wheat, it was only as I was limiting the amount of wheat that I noticed it. Before this time I was eating tons of the stuff, so my gut was probably just too overwhelmed, and I was too accustomed to it to know better.

Still, it didn't feel like what I'd call numb. It was more of feeling that my stomach wasn't able to do its job - like the digestive process was halted, or greatly impaired.

...it was located mostly on the left side just below my rib cage.

That's where the stomach is located, so I guess when you refer to "stomach", perhaps you mean the whole gut in general?

The spot you are talking about is ususally associated with gas pains. If you have a large gas bubble there, then it may feel "numb" because it is pushing against the walls of the stomach and not allowing them to touch. Hope is doesn't hurt!

Oh yes, i would bet a hundred bucks this is a gas problem...i went through this myself, sometimes it hurts, sometimes is a numbing/tickling feeling...hang in there, it will get better!

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      Quick update. I saw the title of this thread and forgot that I'd actually started it! Oh dear! It seems my new healthy diet was the cause of these symptoms, I had a clear colonoscopy, thankfully. Now I know what it is I shall try to resume the healthy diet - the symptoms are annoying rather than painful, and I think it was doing me a lot of good,...

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      Stegosaurus, One size doesn't fit all. Most celiacs do fine with oats and other non-gluten cereal grains. Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources. I don't agree with the position that all celiacs should eliminate all grains from their diet. This line of thinking has been promoted for years...

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      While it's true that lifting heavy weights is a good bone builder, it may not be advisable for those with certain medical conditions like heart disease, arthritis and for the elderly or for those who don't have access to the equipment. Bone building drugs like Fosamax slow down the disposal of worn out osteoclasts (bone cells) and so help maintain/restore...

      Quick update.  I saw the title of this thread and forgot that I'd actually started it!  Oh dear! It seems my new healthy diet was the cause of these symptoms,  I had a clear colonoscopy, thankfully. Now I know what it is I shall try to resume the healthy diet - the symptoms are annoying rather than painful, and I think it was doing me a lot of good, I certainly lost some pounds around the waistline (pity they piled back on again at Christmas!)

      Stegosaurus, One size doesn't fit all. Most celiacs do fine with oats and other non-gluten cereal grains. Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources. I don't agree with the position that all celiacs should eliminate all grains from their diet. This line of thinking has been promoted for years by books like Dangerous Grains which make the case on logic rather than actual real world data. Like many biological phenomenon, what would seem to be logical doesn't pan out to be true in the real world.  But if you are one of those in the minority of celiacs who cannot tolerate cereal grains at all, I'm glad that you were able to sort that out.
