What's Wrong With Me Now?

So after going gluten free, my symptoms had cleared up for the most part. Then I found out that I was lactose intolerant, so I went off dairy and I've been pretty stable. Recently, everything seemed to change. It started a week ago that everything went down hill. I started to have this constant urge to urinate and have a bowel movement. I used to go once a day pretty well and I was fine. Now, I not only go once a day, but I go almost everytime after I eat or feel my gut gurgle or start snapping at me with pain. I get pain, constantly, on my right and left side right near my hop joints. I can feel it if I press my fingers in just a little where it hurts like a bruise. When I do go to the bathroom, I notice that a lot of my food isn't digested so I'm loosing all my nutrients and because I urinate so often, I don't drink enough - but when I do urinate, I go as if I drank gallons of liquid.

I don't know what's wrong with me and I just want it to stop because I'm feeling very weak and very tired. I know I'm not getting enough vitamins and minerals due to my excretions but I don't know what to do. Sometimes it takes me long to digest food as well.

I'm torn between a lot of 'maybe its this' and 'what ifs'. If anyone, someone can suggest something, I'd really really appreciate it. Thank you.

I wonder if you don't have some kind of yeast or other micro biologic infection in your bowel.

I think it might help to outline what you eat and drink day to day, and what supplements and/or medications you take.

Have you visited your doctor about this? You may need to have stool samples taken to see if you have picked up food poisoning and to check out other things that might cause this. It could be another intolerance rearing it's head but it could also be something else. Please call the doctor tommorrow and let them know what is going on.

I'm going to see if he's a avaliable tomorrow to get it checked out. I discussed everything with my brother in law today and he said it may even be my gallbladder because he went through a similar thing. Plus, I googled it and a lot of the symptoms match my problems, especially with the regurgitation of undigested food.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,
