Hello Eveyone,

I am a bit new to this but here it goes. :)

I have Hashimotos (which is a thyroid condition) already and now have been diagnosed with Gluten Intolerance. From what I have been told this pretty much goes hand in hand

I have not been feeling that well, and was wondering if any of you have felt this way.

As soon as I eat my stomach starts to gurgle and then I pretty much have to go to the bathroom right away. After I go to the bathroom I feel pretty ill, my stomach gets bloated and I can't really go anywhere just in case I have to go to the bathroom right away. Most of the time I feel sick the rest of the day.

Is this the way you feel after eating gluten? Or could it be that I am allergic to MSG as well?

Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

:unsure:

I could be gluten, or it could be intestinal problems, or something else. I take special enzymes and manuka honey and mastic gum and it's made a world of difference.

Welcome to the group!

I also have Hashimoto's and gluten intolerance. After a couple of months on the gluten-free diet I figured out that I'm also intolerant to corn (and possibly dairy... I'm going to give that another try after I'm done breastfeeding my casein-intolerant son). I had problems with constipation, gas, and bloating for YEARS. It made me look like I was about four months pregnant <_< Sometimes I had bouts of diarrhea (depending on what time of the month), but mostly constipation.

The best way to heal is to eat a really natural diet... meat, vegetables, a little fruit, nuts, avocados, etc... gluten-free "goodies" (cookies, doughnuts, brownies) can help you make the transition, but even the non-gluten grains are difficult for a lot of people to digest. MSG (and other chemicals like nitrates, aspartame, high fructose corn syrup, etc...) are basically poisons disguised as food :ph34r:

I often didn't even make it the end of my meal before I had to go. Did they do a celiac panel on you or a biopsy? What were the results if they did?

It can take a while to get the hang of the gluten free lifestyle and all that goes with it. How long have you been gluten free?

I was diagnosed about a year ago through saliva and blood testing.

I think I am starting to figure this out. I believe its the combo of the MSG and the Gluten that is just killing me. I also feel bloated did you feel bloated when you were eating gluten?

Hi,

I was wondering if you could tell me where you can buy the Manuka Honey and the Mastic Gum.

Thanks, :)

Sorry this won't be much help <_<

I make up a lot of my own recipes. My husband is from the Ivory Coast (West Africa) and he taught me how to make a basic "sauce" a long time ago. I also make stir-fried vegetables, soup, omelets, roasted meat and potatoes (delicious with sweet potatoes), coconut milk smoothies... I've picked up a lot of basic techniques over the last ten years! Baking is a different story... I haven't done much lately. A lot of the gluten-free recipes use dairy and/or corn, so they haven't been much use to me.

Salad dressings are a problem for me because of the dairy and corn derivatives. If I want dressing this summer I'll make a simple vinaigrette on my own. :P

My Hashimoto's symptoms are definitely better on the gluten-free diet, especially since I've become really, really strict about processed foods and cross-contamination. I'm not constipated, my skin is not so dry, I'm definitely not depressed (which is GREAT)... but I'm still having some problems with low blood pressure and irregular periods. It's tricky to sort things out when you have more than one autoimmune disorder. The important thing is that I seem to be going in the right direction :)

You did help. I love stir-fry :lol:

My problem is also the MSG is killing me cause everything I eat goes through me. Is that the gluten intolerance or its probably MSG. I have a lot of research to do. I have to go very strict diet as well.

Thanks for your help

So it's not normal! I often feel like food is "passing straight through me" as soon as I'm done eating, and get stomach upset and cramps. If I don't get diharrea, I feel like I'm going to, and it often takes a good dose of ginger (my best friend) to make me feel better. It's not always after i've eaten gluten, but food with too much garlic or onions, possible msg or preservatives, and god knows what else does a real number on me. These problems have been increasing (or becoming more apparent) over the past few years and I'm seriously doubting my negative blood test.

the best thing for me currently is to avoid msg and chemical preservatives, raw garlic and onions, and anything too spicy, as they seem to cause more problems than simply eating gluten. what do you think?

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
