New Sensitivities?

Hi!

I thought I was gluten free for the past six months (been wheat-free for almost a year) but after coming to this site I learned that I was still eating hidden sources of gluten all the time. Over the past month, I've been trying to adhere to a strict no-gluten diet. However, recently I've noticed that I've become very sensitive to corn. After eating it, my stomach aches and I feel like I have an ulcer.

Has anyone else experienced this before? I don't recall having this issue before I stopped eating gluten and am wondering if it's indicative of a messed up intensitinal track.

Do you think this will get better with time? Any suggestions?

You might learn about new sensitivities because now that other things are cleared out, you are still feeling a problem and can trace it back.

Well, yes it could be sensitivity to corn, but do you KNOW you don't have an ulcer?

Hubby finally had endoscopy and an ulcer was found. Surprise! that answered a lot of questions about why when he first went gluten-free he still had some symptoms.

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By mermaidluver22 · Posted

      @Scott Adams Thank you so much for this thoughtful and encouraging reply 💛 It really helps me feel less alone navigating all of this! I’ve definitely been strict gluten-free, but I’ll admit — in the beginning, I honestly knew nothing about cross-contamination 😅 so it’s very possible my gut is still healing from that. I feel very abnormal because I am not a typical celiac or a typical Crohn's, so it makes me feel very stuck.

      Hi still the same unfortunately, they had to cancel my colonoscopy due to my trapped nerve , I'm awaiting some kind of scan , it was the nurses who  told me to refuse and asked a docter , and I was told to cancel and go back to my consultant , I think because my sciatic nerve is compressed between my herniated discs , the prep was enough I could handle , but the colonoscopy itself , they advised me to seek something different ,due to the position I had to be in and the movements , so I will update Wen I know more , thankyou for asking appreciated 🤗

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if they have refractory disease or delayed healing. Keeping close follow-up with your GI and possibly revisiting your diet for hidden gluten sources could help. Hang in there—it’s a journey, and you’re doing great by staying proactive!
