Lymphocytic Colitis

I used to post frequently but my computer crashed, so I had to start over with a new 'name'. I used to be Anerissara. Anyway, I have been seeing a good GI doc and biopsies show that i have Lymphocytic (sp?) Colitis. She says this frequently goes along with people who have Celiac's. Anyone else have it? Anyone have any sort of success in getting rid of it? If I am totally, completely gluten free I still have diarrhea. If I have a speck of gluten, I have to camp out in the bathroom for a week and also have miserable bloating, cramps and pain. On a 'good' day it's just diarrhea once a day...and that's on medication for the colitis! The only thing I've found that helps is taking Pepto pills, 8 a day. I'm not so sure I want to go through life downing that much pepto every day!

Could this be another allergy? Does anyone know if this sort of colitis can be caused by an intolerance to something other than wheat? I'm at wit's end with this. I feel like if i'd have caught the Celiac's much earlier, then maybe my gut wouldn't be so messed up now.

      Is AG1 safe for Celiacs??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By nataliallano · Posted

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Chest pain from celiac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
