Frequent Nausea For 4 Months Now....

I haven't had "stomach" problems since going gluten-free two years ago. But almost exactly 4 months ago I started getting frequent nausea, after meals, at least 3 times a week. It is not always the same meal, time of day, or anything else I have noticed. I have taken pregnanacy tests, I had blood work done (cholesterol is 166!, but insulin levels are a little high, suggesting the early stages of insulin resistance). I am also getting really bad motion sickness, especially in my husbands manual, when he shifts and it jerks a little. It is so weird. I have never been like this before. Anyone have any ideas?

The motion sickness suggests an inner ear problem.

I don't have any ideas, but I just want you to know you are not alone. I have been gluten-free since Feb. this year and the last few weeks I have been feeling the same way. I just got done reading on another post about related problems to Celiac and they were mentioning that soy in the diet can cause lot's of problems and I have been eating lots of soy lately and I have been having a lot of the same problems. I plan on cutting soy out of my diet also and see if it helps all these symptoms. Good luck to you.

If it's after meals, it makes me suspect a sugar problem. Try limiting carbs, especially if you are eating a lot of gluten-free bread, pasta, and cookie substitutes (I know, ya GOTTA at the holidays! But try anyway, and I bet you'll see a big difference.) Also smaller meals eaten more frequently rather than 3 squares.

I really think you are right. I am going sugar free after new years. I can tell a HUGE difference when I eat a high carb meal and when I don't....

my main symptom of hypoglycemia is "nausea". it's not like I feel that I'm going to throw up, but it's definitely an unsettled stomach that does not react well to motion, and is mostly "felt" in my head, though through the stomach. makes total sense, right? anyway, trial and error and research has led me to understand and know that it's a blood sugar issue for me, and keeping *steady* blood sugar levels makes all the difference in the world (even allowing me to go a number of hours without having to eat because I haven't had a spike after a meal).

Just to add another possiblility look into gall bladder acting up. If I have a high fat meal I'll get queasy. :huh:

I have found several culprits for me...but the one that comes to mind is HONEY. I know ... it's supposed to be good for your tummy, even killing off hpylori and other great stuff, help with seasonal allergies, etc. But none of that matters to me, because I don't care about my runny nose when my tummy hurts.

Just a thought.

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @melthebell! I certainly would have a biopsy repeated as it has been 5 years since the first one. You mentioned he was scheduled for an endoscopy but make sure a biopsy is also done. It's possible he, like you are, is a "silent" celiac where the damage to the intestinal mucosa happens very slowly and can take years...

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      Hello community; it's nice to have found you. I am a 42 year old biopsy confirmed celiac. I have had it since I was 18. Well managed on a gluten free diet. No idea if I have the gene (presume I do) as never tested. Diagnosed as was anaemic and had a high celiac market (can't recall which), and a positive biopsy. Asymptomatic. Given this, I regularly...

      Why Celiac Diagnosis Still Takes Years—and How to Change That

      @par18, I don't totally disagree with what you say in theory. But like many things in life, one size doesn't fit all. While a formal diagnosis of celiac disease or NCGS is certainly not essential since, in the big picture of things, eliminating gluten is the antidote to either, there are some other considerations that give importance to seeking a formal diagnosis...

      What would you do - neighbor brought gluten-free pizza from Papa Murphy's

      Domino's and Mountain Mike also has glutenfree pizza.However the issue is the cross contamination. Not worth a few minutes of yum yums i n the taste buds with a painful explosion later.

      Why Celiac Diagnosis Still Takes Years—and How to Change That

      Withholding the treatment (strict gluten-free diet) until the very end to me is the biggest obstacle to getting more people "identified" with gluten intolerance/Celiac. The strict gluten-free diet in my opinion is both the effective treatment and also a valuable diagnostic tool. My personal advice would be to go on a properly administered gluten-free diet...

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @melthebell! I certainly would have a biopsy repeated as it has been 5 years since the first one. You mentioned he was scheduled for an endoscopy but make sure a biopsy is also done. It's possible he, like you are, is a "silent" celiac where the damage to the intestinal mucosa happens very slowly and can take years to manifest to the point of being detectable and where symptoms are minimal or absent. At 10 years old, his immune system may not be mature enough het to trigger the usual IGA responses that the IGA celiac tests are designed to detect.  I would also have genetic testing done to confirm that he has or doesn't have the potential to develop celiac disease. The genetic profile can also offer insight into the type of celiac disease a person will develop if they ever convert from latent to active. Take a look at table 2 under the section "Types of Celiac Disease" in the article found in this link: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9980758/  Genetic testing is available from 3rd party labs. I think you just have to send in a cheek swab sample.

      Hello community; it's nice to have found you. I am a 42 year old biopsy confirmed celiac. I have had it since I was 18. Well managed on a gluten free diet. No idea if I have the gene (presume I do) as never tested. Diagnosed as was anaemic and had a high celiac market (can't recall which), and a positive biopsy. Asymptomatic. Given this, I regularly test my two children. My eldest is the child in question. First tested at age 5 due to slight anaemia. Everything negative except for a slightly high DGP IGG (slightly elevated at 25). Not IGA deficient. Did a biopsy with a pediatric gastro, was negative. Next test at age 8. Everything once again negative, high DGP IGG at 116 U/ml this time. Living in a country now with no celiac knowledge so decided to whack him on a gluten-free diet and see how he goes. Next test at age 9 after a year on gluten-free diet. Everything once again negative, high DGP IGG at 174 U/ml this time! On a gluten-free diet. Final test was a week ago at age 10, on continued gluten-free diet. Once again a positive DGP IGG, this time over 250 U/ml. On a gluten-free diet. what the heck is going on with my kid? We have seen a pediatric gastro via telehealth, who was equally puzzled and suggested doing a gluten challenge and an endoscopy, which we have schedule for end of April. Kid is otherwise fine. Energetic and growing well. No significant gastrointestinal symptoms. Has anyone encountered something like this before?

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially beneficial in areas with well water or known contamination concerns. While RO systems also remove beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium and may produce slightly “flat”-tasting water, most dietary minerals come from food rather than drinking water, so this is not usually a health concern for most people. Overall, RO water is very clean and safe to drink, and it can be a smart option where water quality is questionable, though it may not be necessary in areas with well-tested municipal water.

      With the wide availability of frozen prepared gluten-free pizzas, for example DiGiorno's, it's probably best to avoid the risk of eating pizza in restaurants that also make regular pizza.
