Feeling Bad Again

I know that I have not eaten anything with gluten in it. I am not currently eating anything that is even considered gluten free... I eat a few yougurts and then by the end of the night my whole body is sore. I had to do a stool sample a while back so I am sure they would of told me if I had candida. I am just at my wits end here. I have tried to be so careful now I am wondering if this is lactose / candida problem beccause my pain on my lower right side is mostly gone but I get really sore all over after eating certain things like yogurt ( yoplait) and I had a few sodas.

I guess I will have to try to cut out sugar now and any type of milk product. Does anyone else in here have symptoms like this where you seem to hurt all over? I had ANA tests for other auto immune dieseases and doc said those were all in line. April 14th will be my 9 month anniversary gluten-free but not seeing tons of improvement.

Thinking of buying three lac for fighting candida...I heard that can make you feel really crummy and it does seem to happen after eating sugar or anything that converts to it.

I would begin a food diary. Keep track of everything and it might render some culprits. Dairy can also mimic the gluten experience. Try to give it up for a while and see if you improve.

well lactose issues are common with celiac disease, even after the gluten is stopped it takes a while for lactose/milk issues to resolve but from my research it seems that they usually do resolve for many people. that being said you might just also have a casein issue. maybe supplemental enzymes will help you but unless you can find some one that specializes in that stuff it might just be trial and error. i know i was told i had a sensitivity to a protein in milk and was given digestive enzymes, i have taken them for a few years now and they seem to help some over all, but i dont seem to have any issues with dairy any more. i also take a gluten digestion just to make sure i have some help if i get glutened and even when im eating 100% gluten-free it helps my digestion and i take another supplement that is licorice based IIRC which also helps.

if it was me i would try not eating it for a while and see if your symptoms clear and if they do then you can try eating it again to see if you have issues

hope you can figure it all out

I'm glad you posted this. I was "diagnosed" with Celiac Disease in February. My doctor couldn't give me a full diagnosis, because he's a jackass, and me and my pcp believe that I caught it pretty early. I had only a few symptoms, but they were severe. I had abdominal pain that would send me to the ER and extreme fatigue and irritibility. I have been gluten free ever since, but recently I have started having abdominal pain coming back. I was hoping to get away with just being gluten free. You see people on this site who are gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free and all this other stuff. I think having Celiac disease does make your body more vulnerable to sensitivity. Dairy is a common one. I have actually started weeding out dairy because of the pain coming back. If you noticed it was yogurt, then you should consider going dairy free.

I agree with everyone that a dairy free trial could be beneficial to you. I would totally eliminate it for at least a month, diligently reading labels for casein, whey, lactose etc. and seeing if that helps. A food journal also helps keep track to see if anything else may be bothering you such as soy, fructose, etc. It was well worth it for me. Hope you feel better soon!

I would have to agree with everybody and stop the dairy products. I had to about 4 months after going gluten free, funny thing is only thing I can eat is yougurt and at times it is the only thing that will calm my stomach that and peanut butter. I do not understand the why those two things work for me sometimes but they do. If anybody can tell me I would love to know.

Good luck and hang in there.

edumicated guess, i would bet its because its a lot of protein but in a pretty easy to digest form. probably just lets your GI track go "o hey, look at that, its easy, alright i can do this"

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
