Growling Stomach After Every Meal...

I had had an upset stomach, abdominal pain and bloating so severe until I began the digestive enzymes.

My question is, if I've been gluten free for years, and I didn't have abdominal pain before diagnosed, why would this just start now?

When first diagnosed I was very anemic. Elevated liver enzymes which go up and down, depressed, anxious, and fatigued.

Then I went gluten free, lost weight and felt wonderful for years (while on iron).

Then just a few weeks ago, this horrible bloating cramping and growling after meals started when I went on a cheese puff binge.

The cheese puffs seemed to be gluten free, but it was the lays brand.

Could this be the cause of this starting all of this when I never had this type of thing before?

I do not want to go to the doctors. I don't have insurance and it has never helped me. All they said was that I had flat villi, inflammed intestines, and elevated liver enzymes. I avoided gluten and then felt much healthier overall.

I am freaking out. I have IBS symptoms that are getting better with digestive enzymes, but why in the heck would this start now?

Please help!

My best guess would be the cheese puffs. There are many here who don't touch Lay's products because of the strong risk of CC. Eating Lay's is like playing roulette, at least for me.

Stomach growling is one of the first indications that I have been glutened.

I react to Lay's products and I hate it becuase I love a good salty potato chip. I have read that the cheese puffs/ curls are chemicals, so probably not vey good for us anyway. I am awfully glad that old fashioned popped popcorn likes me! I replace the popcorn for chips when I am hungry for chips.

For those that like cheese puffs Pirate's Booty makes some really good ones. A much safer alternative to Lays and no funny chemicals incuded.

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Lysine is helpful for "cold sores" (oral herpes).

      @Wheatwacked, Are you aware of the interaction of potassium iodide and losartan ?   https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/iodine-potassium-iodide-with-losartan-1368-0-1489-0.html#:~:text=Talk to your doctor before,to safely use both medications.

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
