Worst Pain Ever -- Help!


DeerGirl

Recommended Posts

DeerGirl Apprentice

This is the worst pain I've ever been in from a glutening. My entire abdomen is in incredible pain, bloating. I took some probiotics, been drinking fluids. When I felt hungry I ate some gluten-free mac & cheese.

Breathing, moving all hurt. I'm at a loss. Anyone have any suggestions -- NSAIDS? Stronger pain killers?

Anyone? I'm truly at a loss as to what to do that will bring about some fairly immediate relief from the pain and cramping.

Hot soaking bath with a fold bath towel over the tummy area to hold in the heat. It seems to help the intestines relax.

Aloe Vera juice, tastes so so, mix with some regular juice to get it down, that will likely help with the inflammation.

Gas-X is good too for the bloating

Thanks for the tips. I eventually took 2 Aleve and used a heating pad, which helped some, but spent the rest of the night in pain. :-(

How much aloe vera do you drink and how often?

about 2 oz and when I've been glutened....my mother used to keep this stuff around for years, she had MS and found it helpful

I just bought George's Aloe Juice. It has been mentioned on the forum before and people have said it tastes like water. Also it looks like water.

When my stomach hurts I take extra probiotics, eat organic yogurt and bananas. For some reason yogurt and bananas seem to work for me.

I'm so sorry you had to go through such pain and hope that you are better soon. Also, the mac and cheese may be a bit difficult to digest when you are already in distress.

      I adapted this to be a gluten-free recipe from www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/autumn-pear-bread. Wonderful flavor profile, great texture, fairly easy to make. The almond flavor from the almond flour complements the pear flavor. Ingredients 1 cup almond flour 1 cup sweet rice flour 1 cup millet flour 2 Tablespoons tapioca flour 1 cup sugar 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 6 tablespoons cold butter 3 large eggs, room temperature 3/8 cup buttermilk (1 tsp white vinegar + 3/8 cup milk) 2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 ½ cup finely chopped ripe pears (1-2 med/large pears. You could peel them but I don't) Directions (optional) cut butter into pats, place on saucer in the refrigerator while prepping other ingredients In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. (I use a whisk to mix) Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (I use pastry blender) Combine eggs, buttermilk and vanilla (I use same whisk); stir into flour mixture just until moistened. (I use a mixing spoon) Fold in pears. (mixing spoon) Spoon into 2 greased 5 x 8 inch loaf pans Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans on to wire rack. Allow to cool completely. Not sure how long you can keep this at room temperature because it gets eaten quickly

      @Jmartes71, I understand how frustrated you feel.  I have been disappointed with the medical system myself.  Have you read my story in my blog?   What can we do to help you get better?   Nutritional deficiencies are common in Celiac disease.  Have you been checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies?   Which supplements are you taking?

      It would seem then that your next step should be a biopsy to check for damage to the villous lining of the small bowel. But you must not reduce gluten intake until that is performed else healing will take place in that area of the intestines and the biopsy results would be invalidated.

      Welcome, @anya22, Can you tell us more about your diet?   How much gluten containing foods did you eat?  What kinds of gluten containing foods did you eat?  What has your high calorie diet consisted of?   Some gluten containing foods contain less gluten than others.  Cakes and cookies may have less gluten than something like deep dish pizza.   Glad you're here!
