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.

      Hi all !! Did anyone ever get prescribed methylprednisone steroids for inflammation of stomach and intestines?  Did it work ??  Thank you !!

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

      Hello still dancing around my celiac disease and not getting medically backed up considering Ive been glutenfree since 1994.All my ailments are the core issue of my ghost disease aka celiac disease. Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:
