I ate all natural, beef.

Now I am gassy, burping, feeling that tickle in my thorat.

Coughing a little...

Anyone have trouble digesting beef?

I think that may be it.... :ph34r:

If you are newly diagnosed, everything might bother you.

However, just because you have celiac disease does not mean every ailment that might occur is due to celiac. You might just randomly have trouble digesting beef today.

I'm relatively newly self-diagnosed and I have problems digesting anything but fresh fruit and veggies, and limited amounts of soy. Just give it a little time, a few months at least, and if it doesn't start to clear up you might have a problem with beef.

What was on the beef? How was it cooked? Did you have *anything* else within four hours? Did you swallow much air with it? Lots of questions here. :)

Gotta echo those questions......

Were you formerly not eating beef?

If you have been vegetarian for a while then your body probably just needs to adjust slowly....

It might also be distateful but the less its cooked the easier it digests..... but perhaps if you haven't eaten it for a while then very small portions would be a start?

sometimes I get sick from the most random things where it's not possible to even be celiac related... it could simply be a mild food poisoning issue (when your immune system is already compromised you react more quickly to other things)

also, beef is hard to digest so if you haven't been eating it for a while, or ever, ease into it slowly... you don't need beef in your diet, in fact my sister lives off of ground turkey, baked chicken and fish... (no beef or pork)

My BIL & my BF's families each have a cattle farm & they've both warned me that it could depend on what the cow is feed, like pork...pigs are usually give slop (all the bits of leftover dinners) so I just avoid the pork & hope for the best with Beef. I love beef!

I still can't figure out what hay is...

Wow, that's ironic because last night i made home made burgers in the frying pan and about 1-2 hours later i felt like i could throw up a grease ball or something...i kept burping and got gassy when i went to bed. I will say i haven't been on a very fatty diet the past few months, and i usually grill the burgers instead of pan frying them (but it was raining around South Chicago burbs last night...and still is this morning), si it may just be the grease or fat content.

Well I buy only organic, natural meats.

Meaning all vegetarian feed, no antibiotics and no preservatives.

So thats ok.

I asked the GI and she said.....beef digests poorly and sometimes, bit do not digest at all so its really not good for a newly diagnosed person.

So I am sticking to any fresh turkey...chicken...and salmon.

Although I did try gluten free, wheat free, egg free, soy free, cas free chicken nuggets.

We'll see how those go.

Last christmas (before I was dx) I had a huge roast with my family. Immediatly after I felt sick - but what else is new. It deff. wasn't food poisening b/c no one else got sick, and because I get sick so easily all my meat is always cooked more than everyone elses. I spent the rest of christmas night and all the next day throwing that delish. meat up. And since then I don't eat red meat, and whenever I do I get just as sick. Only I don't always throw up, thank god.

Has anyone else notices that before you were dx if you told anyone the list of all the things you couldn't eat b/c you get so sick.. well.. the list is never ending. As is now, but at least we know why. Being dx is actually better- I can eat MORE than I could before!

      Thank you @cristiana. Its really helpful to hear your experience, thanks for sharing. 8 years is a long time!

      Yes, the development of additional food intolerances is a common spinoff of celiac disease. To ensure valid testing after beginning a "gluten challenge" you would need to be consuming at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks. Many cannot follow through with this regimen, however, as their intolerance...

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      I think going back to your GI isn't a bad idea - my visits to the GI did not stop following my diagnosis as I had annoying issues on and off for some time. Thankfully he is a fantastic GI, with a great sense of humour, so it wasn't a chore to see him again although I'd rather not have had to, obviously! But I needed my mind to be put at rest as my symptoms...

      Thankfully those are normal. B12 was on the low end of the normal range when I first got diagnosed. When I last got it checked, it had come up a lot (455 last time checked).

      Thank you @cristiana.  Its really helpful to hear your experience, thanks for sharing.  8 years is a long time!  And its also good to know that others have experienced worsening before it gets better.  I've just started doing the food diary recently, and I'll keep that going. It's at least helping me try to get a handle on this, and also helps increase my overall awareness of what I'm putting in my body. I will also message my GI doc in the meantime too.  Thanks, it's really helpful to talk through this.

      I've been gluten free for 5 years, as well as being intolerant to gluten, my list of intolerances is growing.. from dairy, eggs, soya, yeast, to mushroom, garlic, onion, spinach and quite a few in-between, basically my diet is gluten-free cornflakes, rice, banana, almond milk and fish anything else causes bloating, severe abdominal pain, mucousy diarrhoea, lethargy, muscle and joint pain, kidney pain, headaches, and mouth ulcers. I've been told it's IBS, I think it's more than that... I've been sent to a gastroenterologist who tested for coeliac, if course it came back negative because, as I told him, I haven't eaten gluten for 5 years, he's asked me to eat gluten for 4 weeks and redo the blood test, so I've tried small amounts of crispbread for 3 days and am in agony, I can't do this for 4 weeks and then however long it'll take to recover. Has anyone got any suggestions, and is multiple food intolerances a common side effect of coeliac? I'm struggling! And struggling to be taken seriously 😒

      I think going back to your GI isn't a bad idea - my visits to the GI did not stop following my diagnosis as I had annoying issues on and off for some time.  Thankfully he is a fantastic GI, with  a great sense of humour, so it wasn't a chore to see him again although I'd rather not have had to, obviously!  But I needed my mind to be put at rest as my symptoms didn't seem to go away overnight as I'd hoped they would.  Initially I recall he recommended I went Dairy Free for three weeks, and he told me it would take that time to see an effect.  At that time, even lactose free milk went straight through me, so it is important, I would say, to even avoid that during a Dairy Free trial. My ongoing symptoms were bloating which did respond a bit to that trial.   However, within about 18 months there was a return to a very sore stomach, plus various aches and pains.   It turned out some gluten was sneaking in with my iron supplement (I was buying Floradix instead of Floravital), but I also think the dishwasher, the oven and eating out were contributors, too. Before my numbers normalised (from memory, about eight years!) I had several follow up appointments and a few more tests, but things gradually did get better.  Having read many accounts on this forum over the years, I don't think it is uncommon for symptoms to get a bit worse before getting better, that was certainly the case with me.  Your gut is damaged so you may well have issues digesting other food in the short term. But do try to be as scrupulously gluten free as you can possibly be as a first step, and I'd definitely try a three week Dairy Free trial.   Your villi because they are damaged are not able to create the lactase required to digest dairy at this time so you may well see some improvement if you come off dairy for a while.  Perhaps keeping a food diary of what you eat, where you eat it, whilst a bit onerous to do, will help identify foods that are causing issues.  For a while, apart from oats, I found peas, lentils and soya products hugely aggravating.  Things should calm down.
