I get both. Usually d first. My biggest issue is staying hydrated.

I get D--with nausea. Quite seriously, I don't believe I've ever had C.

Ehhhh... sorry to ask, but what does it mean to get D or C?

Diahroea or constipated is what it is all about. Ehhh... as you would say.

I get D, and have probably only had constipation about 5 times total in my whole life.

Ah I see... eww. Well, I get D sometimes but mainly its C. This is embarrasing to talk about, but I don't think I complete #2 when I go... therefore have to use lots of paper towel. That would be part of C right? Anyways, its all screwed up :(

And I seem to use heaps of toilet paper too, even though it is not constipation. How embarassing!

didn't going gluten-free fix all of that? because if it doesn't, well, that sucks. Or more precisely, that stinks.

CarlaB Enthusiast

Yea, I go through the paper, too. I'm much more normal, or should I say regular?, but I go through the paper.

jerseyangel Proficient

Gee, I thought it was just me--sometimes I use so much paper, I have to flush twice :ph34r:

On good days I could almost do without the toilet paper, seriously. :) But of course I do use it!!! :ph34r::blink::rolleyes:

If I get glutened, I'm like the first poster, first D then several days of C or almost C.

After almost two years of gluten free, the good days far outnumber the bad for me, btw.

I also get D first. I do have days where I get C, but I am not sure why yet. I dont think its gluten, I think its lack of fiber. I am trying to figure it out.

I am like Paulina, on my "normal" days, I almost could go without paper too. (but I dont either! ;) )

hahah, same here ;;

MistressIsis Apprentice

usually immediate D at least 3 runs to the BR & if that doesn't flush everything out then I get the, I feel like I have to but I don't feeling. It's not even C it's just tight & painful

      Thankyou because I met up with K B with well known bay area hospital once and she said she knows I don't like to take meds, I said thats incorrect, I have issues.Thats the one that said I was deemed " unruly " when she admitted I was celiac when I asked why am I going through this.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
