Oh My Goodness, YES!! This is why the GI Dr. (who was way off) tried telling me i might have a bacterial infection, and then he tried telling me it was ulcerative colitis...just know it will begin to heal once you've been on a gluten free diet for a few months, it starts to heal immediately following a gluten free diet but sometimes seeing the results takes awhile.

Yep, me too. C with mucous, whether it's gluten or another sensitivity. My non-celiac hubby tells me that he also gets mucous the day after eating anything that bothers his stomach. (I haven't verified this personally, I'm taking his word for it!)

I had a mediocre doctor try to give me drugs for IBS because of the C with M. She said I couldn't possibly have celiac without D. Luckily I knew she was wrong because of my dietary response and keep looking until I found a good doctor.

Yep, me too ...mine has gotten much better after a few months of a gluten-free and df diet, i found out the dairy (lactose i believe) was causing most of that, so if your not df you may want to try it out!
