Could Ds' Foot Cramp Be A Symptom Of Being Glutened?

This morning on the walk to school ds had an awful foot cramp. Could this be a symptom of being glutened? He's had leg and foot cramps before but I never tracked them because I never thought they could be related, but now I'm wondering.

Thanks!

I'd say that yes, it could be a symptom. After my dd was born, I had horrendous foot cramps and pain for over a year. I seriously thought that I had stress fractures in both feet! When we put dd on the diet, I went on as well and the pain cleared up in a matter of days. I've heard many others here report the same thing with foot pain that went away once on diet.

I'd definitely track it to see if the two coincide.

My daughter regularly had leg and foot pain before diagnosis. Now it only happens when she is glutened. She'll get cramps for about a week from a single glutening.

Apparently it can, Im pretty suire it also has to do that the gluteing possibly blocks your intake on Nutriens due to the immunereaction or even sucks it right out of you! Maybe you should try to give your body electrolytes, Magnesium /Potassium to be exact which if lacking or low in the body usually causes severe legcramps. See if drinking a small bottle of Gatorade Berry, Grape or Orange which are accoprding to my Glutenfree shopppngguide glutenfree until the symptoms/legcramps go away , helps. This should replace any Electrolytes the glutening sucked out of your body pretty quickly! Maybe it helps!

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
