i have been suffering with abdo pain especially after eating and loose yellowy coloured stools for the past two weeks and after searching online found these symptoms could possibly be coeliac( also liver, gallbladder probs were mentioned) has anyone here suffered with yellowy poop and could it possibly be coeliac disease? I have ulcerative colitis also so i dont know how common it is to suffer with both???!! Any help/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Having UC with celiac is certainly not unheard of. In some of us celiac causes this. Has your doctor tested for celiac? If you want doctor confirmation call and check if he has done the blood work and ask him to order it if he hasn't. Many will want to do a endo for confirmation although the test can rule it in but not rule it out, read false negatives there. For testing you need to be actively consuming the toxin so don't eliminate it if you want a doctor derived diagnosis. But if they say the tests are negative do try the diet anyway as those tests are not really all that reliable.

If having an 'official' diagnosis is not something you require, or if you have had the tests and they were negative you have nothing to lose but your pain from trying the diet.

Read as much as you can here and ask any questions you need to. You have found a great place for information and support. Welcome.

      Oral thrush question

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Has your doctor tested your vitamin D?  Urine Iodine deficiency? Vitamin B12 deficiency can be a contributing factor for oral thrush, especial if you are vegan. Celiac Disease causes  malabsorbtion leading to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Zinc supplementation reduces Candida infections  I know that zinc is an antiviral and have been using zinc glycomate (Cold Eeze lozanges) since 2004 and have not gotten cold or flu since.  The lozenge coats the mucous membrane with zinc, protecting the cell wall from the virus.  This research paper and some others indicate that zinc also acts as an antifungal.  Worth a try, Try to reduce how much food with high omega 6 that you eat to lower your omeaga 6 to 3 ratio.  It helps with inflammation.  Try eating foods with lots of benificial bacteria.  The goal is to repopulate your gut with good guys. Assuming you do not have dermatitis herpetiformis or another reason to limit iodine, Liquid Iodine to raise your iodine to the 600 mcg a day (middle of the RDA range (150-1000mcg)  to boost your immune system.  Iodine has anti-fungal properties that can help kill Candida species.  Your whole body will heal quicker when you have sufficient iodine and vitamin D.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      Oral thrush question

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @JulieRe! You would do well to get checked for a candida infection of the gut. Yeast thrives on carbs so you might also look into a low carb diet. These kinds of things seem to be more common in the celiac community than in the general population. There is a growing body of evidence that the development of celiac disease is rooted in unhealthy gut biome conditions. It's good that you are getting that red spot on your tongue checked out soon. It's likely related to the thrush but I would also not rule out a neoplasm which you would certainly want to catch early.

      Hi there! I have very similar dermatitis herpetiformis responses. The only thing that helps is dissolving a Benadryl pill and rubbing that on the painful itchy spots that arise on my knees, scalp, elbows. I have been working with a nutritionist who also has celiac we narrowed down to me only getting we certified gluten-free products - which I try the best I can. But then I have found products that use guar gum and other additive gums I have reactions as well. It was my plant based milk. I had to switch to Elmhurst it’s just nuts and milk- most of the time.   I hope that’s helpful! I’ll keep following:) we seem to have very similar reactions!
