Bathroom time and about 4 imodiums works for me - 2 to start then another one or two as needed later (apparently I am the only one I know of that it does't mess me up for DAYS). I just seems to amke me a little closer to normal.

nope, nothing much stops it for me, but coughing probably isn't going to help much, in that it will just tense up other abdominal muscles that won't necessarily be good for you in the long run (something I've learned the hard way, having under-treated cough-variant asthma). eh... it's fairly 'normal' body noises (in a little more than normal quantity/volume, at this point ;) )

Some intestinal sounds are normal. If they are real loud, perhaps eating several smaller meals and make sure they are gluten free always. I have had this disease for a very long time and was finally diagnosed in 1976. I had many loud intestional noises and pain, plus many other symptoms as you will know from your own experience with this disease. I have it under control by eating smaller meals; always gluten free; I get plenty of rest; try and stay away from anything caffeinated ,especially soda pop. I am looking for a Celiac that has had a Whpple Operation with a diagnosis of Adencarcinoma. Thank you

A few people on here have suggested Digestive Enzymes, which i might try. I will say that L-Glutamine (e free form of natural amino acids) supplements are working great to repair the damage that has been done to my intestinal tract ;)

I was just reading that Dr. Fine likes (and recommends) Culturelle - which is Lactobacillus. :)

Hi K2D,

After having bad reactions to prescription and over the counter medicines, I now believe in natural ways. I've found a little warm beverage at the end of each meal helps in digestion. It keeps any oils and stuff from getting hard or sludgey before they have a chance to go thru the intestines. It kind of helps things to keep right on moving.

My tummy is like a load speaker when I have been been unfortunate to get ahold of the dreaded gluten or when I have to hurry up and eat. No one really wants to just drink warm water so I put a little mint extract (non-alcoholic) or Celestial Seasons pepermint tea bag in it. That will calm the tummy and keep things going smoothly. It might help you. If it is in the evening I also add Chamomile to help relax me so the grumbley bear goes away. L-Glutamin as Irish Kelly said also helps. I do that too.

This is a great group of people with pretty darn good ideas that show someone out there cares. I'll keep my fingers crossed that at least one of them will work for you.

Oh, my gurgling tummy has put me in SUCH embarrassing situations! It likes to gurgle in symphony concerts--ALWAYS at the softest moments. I dread pianissimos....

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
