This Is Kind Of Gross...

Sorry for the topic, but I have a question to put out there. I'm wondering when other people's diarrhea occurs (or occured before you were dx'd) when eating gluten. Is it any time? Just after meals? Middle of the night? How long does it last? Is there any rhyme or reason to it?

I'm eating gluten to prepare for the endoscopy this week. Am off dairy, which has helped the gas but not much else--still having the other symptoms. I'm still having the diarrhea often, usually after I eat (sometimes during a meal), though it's always first thing in the morning before I do anything else. It can also range from quite watery to undigested food to toothpaste-like consistency. I'm wondering if any of it is related or if it's something else...

Thanks!

So when does it happen for you? Right away? Does it take hours? How do you know it's related?

Man, mine varies depending on what I have been contaminated with. Most of my glutenings these days are cross contamination. But I can tell you that recently I have been waking in the middle of the night. That is new and my family doctor says that is a normal celiac responce and how most people end up getting diagnosed. I never had that happen before. As for consistancy I must say, "yes" all of those things. And it lasts for quite a long time. Weeks to be more exact. Hope my responce helps.

I had just started to be gluten free right before Christmas (maybe 2 weeks I was off), and then started to put the pieces together and figure out that my problems may truly be gluten related, so I went back on in preparation for the endoscopy. I guess I really haven't been off long enough, but I certainly did feel better while I was off of it. It will be interesting to see what happens with the results of the next round of testing.

within an hour after I eat something bad, if I take Immodium it usually will clear up within a few hours, but for bad glutenings, man I suffer with loose movements for a few days.... :o

Chocolatelover,

Before diagnosis I usually had one trip to the bathroom in the morning, and that would be diarhoea, but usually only the once a day but it was not watery, just like the toothpaste consistency you describe, and floating.

Randomly in the middle of the night, especially after eating too much during the day, as in special morning teas, or eating out, it would catch me in the middle of the night with severe stomach pains and even worse diarhoea than usual. But it would be just a matter of going to the loo a couple of times, then I would be fine for the next day, apart from being tired.

For a while, the midnight trips seemed random, until the last year before diagnosis when it would happen every time I overate, as in about once a month.

My diarrhea happens within the hour. It is sudden and mine is not as painful as described by others. You know what is funny, a year ago I would never have discussed diarrhea with strangers and now my potty issues are an open book!

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix. It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball. It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again, not in your eyes or ears.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress ...

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. ...

My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
