Trouble Urinating?

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I haven't been on in awhile but have just been having a awful couple of days.

Bloating, tired, crying, angry,anxious, sleeping too much or too little, my hair is falling out again and my skin is nice and itchy and has rashes in all the classic areas.

I know it is because I ingested gluten and since going gluten free I have discovered several other food allergies.

Along with all the other symptoms I mentioned above has anyone when there stomache is bloated beyond belief also found that they had trouble urinating? I keep having to burp too and I hear gurgly sounds in my throat. My doctor had given me Flonase for my chronic sinuitis and allergies and I am wondering if that has gluten in it somewhere?

Recently I went to see a neuro because i was having all kinds of muscle spasms and began to wonder if I had MS so they did an MRI that came back fine but I don't know if I am being a hypochondriac anymore or that its just the celiac.

With having cancer, my mom having cancer and then my Dad with Parkinson's I just am waiting for the other shoe to drop again. So I am not sure if I am just over thinking today that it still could be something else or that i just am having an emotional meltdown today.

Well for whoever responds or reads this thanks for letting me vent. I was having such a good run of feeling well that I feel like I took 20 steps backwards.

I'm sorry to hear you are having such a hard time right now. If you have ingested gluten that could also cause the muscle spasms and I get the shakes when contaminated.

And yes, most of us have trouble with bloating. You go quite a while without urinating and then when the gluten starts to leave the body, you are in the bathroom all the time. At least I'm am. But the bloating can be quite hard and painful until then.

I have a big problem burping too. I find that a clear soda like ginger ale, or 7-Up helps with that. I usually keep some on hand.

I sure hope you feel better soon!

Thanks for your response Viola

Actually I get the shakes too so that really makes me feel better to hear that.

Sometimes just having someone validate you makes things seem "normal" or at least I don't feel like I am just going crazy.

Anyhow thanks for your support it has helped immensly

Take care

Abbie

      No, I would not say this at all. If you were diagnosed with celiac disease and were gluten-free for a while, you could have gone into remission. Everyone's body is different, and some celiacs may be able to get regular contamination and not end up with damaged villi and positive antibody tests, while others who ingest tiny amounts will relapse and have full blown symptoms and flattened villi.  Only a full gluten challenge would reveal where you are at this point. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      Great  post. The skin issue can be intolerable. I have been taking niacinamide for the past month and have improved with respect to the blistering lesions.

      I've found taking Niacin Vitamin B 3 in the form that causes flushing (nicotinic acid) helps immensely to clear my skin.  The flushing is harmless and goes away the longer Niacin is taken.  The flushing (vasodilation in the skin) helps the body get rid of the tTg 3 IgA antibodies that cause the blisters.  TTg 2 IgA antibodies are found in the blood and are measured in diagnostic testing for Celiac.  People with Dermatitis Herpetiformis make tTg 3 as well as tTg 2 antibodies.  Niacin Vitamin B3 in the non flushing form niacinamide also works without the flushing, but takes a bit longer.   I also avoid foods containing high levels of iodine because iodine activates the tTg 3 IgA antibodies to become more active and make more blisters.  I avoid kelp (nori, seaweed) and crustaceans,  eggs, dairy products, and iodized table salt.   Niacinamide and Nicotinic acid are water soluble and harmless.  I'd much rather take Niacin than Dapsone with scary side effects.

      We have a gluten-free household. It's the least stressful option. No one else in my family has Celiac, but they are all extremely supportive. We don't even have Play-doh for this kids.
