Painful like lava is exiting your body? Yeah, that's normal. Painful due to constipation, normal too, with Celiac or an intolerance

If your discomfort is higher in the abdomen, like toward stomach area instead of lower intestine, you might consider Small Bowel Bacterial overgrowth as a possible problem for you. I often get sickly stomach and then it goes away when I move my bowels. On the other hand, my bowels movements are typically constipated and overly firm, whereas you may have the opposite issue.

I've also noticed that certain sugars or pectin or insoluble fiber (not sure - apples and pears are the trigger) give me intestinal cramps while moving my bowels and before. When I cut those out, the cramps went away.

It's tough because our small intestine is where so many necessary things for digestion are released into the system. Since we are messed up there, until we heal, all our digestive processes suffer.

Good luck.

No, that's not a "normal" sensation. That's the type of feeling I get due to lactose intolerance. Other foods trigger it too...I suspect I may also have an issue with fructose.

I have had this my whole life. Sometimes it goes away for awhile. Always comes back. At least 2 a month.

Colitis maybe? Isnt Colitis almost the same as Celiac? Or do they go hand and hand?

Most of that pain went away when I went on the gluten-free diet. The rest is now gone because I started a very low carb doet. Seems like some of the alternate flours do it to me. I tolerate corn about the best.

I did have a month period where I was afraid to go on doggie walks and the like for fear I'd have to suddenly and painfully go poop. I had all these tests done that came out negative. I think it was adding acidoph/probiotics OR time that finally fixed it - hard to say if it was coincidence or not on the probiotics. But I"m be sure I'm on a good probiotic - watch for gluten free and dairy free if you can manage it, and yeast free. THey can be expensive, but even going on it for one month will get your flora back in line.

Good luck.

      What exactly are you taking from doterra?

      Hello, I'm back with a second post. The first time I wrote, I mentioned the possibility that my symptoms were related to gluten. I did a genetic test in which I resulted to have the predisposition, but the results of my blood test were all negative without IgA deficiency. My doctor suggested that it was necessary to do a biopsy to rule out Celiac Disease. However, he said, because of my family history and my symptoms were strongly related to gluten, it was very possible that my Celiac Disease is developing and my antibodies may become positive in the future.  I tried to continue the gluten challenge for the biopsy, around 2-3 g of gluten per day, but it was enough to make me feel worse each passing day. I started developing anemia and other mild nutritional deficiencies, and it was really affecting my daily life. I'm a student and exams are coming up, so my doctor suggests me to strictly remove gluten until I feel better so I could study without problems until I could do the gluten challenge when I come back home for holidays. Since going gluten free, I feel like a completely different person. My mind is clearer, I have no stomach pain during the day, and even my nails improved within just two weeks. It could also be Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, but of course I’ll need the biopsy to know for sure. I was wondering, has anyone else had negative blood tests at first and later tested positive? And has anyone struggled with the gluten challenge because of symptoms?

      Doterra is a life saver and yes I feel like im waiting because Im getting yes you are celiac, no your not celiac. Im so FRUSTRATED, exhausted and tired of explaining to medical why I feel this way.Im stressed because my body isn't feeling well.Yes I am and no it's not just a food allergy as downplayed with doctors Ive seen.I even went to the " celiac  specialist " Dr Fernandez-Becker who down played my ailments and stated im not and then yes I am I even had one her " care team" ask my why do you want that diagnosis. UNMMMMM. I don't want it, its been my life confirmed in 1994.Menopause intensified extra sensitivity and medical has down played my sibo, ibs, CELIAC, now im having skin and eye issues. I thought help was available but its been a complete medical disaster.

      I have had my endoscopy this morning with biopsies. My consultant said that it looked like I did have coeliac disease from what he could see. I now have to wait 3 weeks for the biopsy results. Do I continue eating gluten till my follow appointment in three weeks.

      Hi @emzie and welcome to the forum. Perhaps could be residual inflammation and bloating that is causing sensitivity in that area.  I was diagnosed with coeliac disease in 2013 and I remember some years ago my sister telling me around that time that she had a lady in her church, also a coeliac, who  had real pain when she turned her torso in a certain direction whilst doing exercises, but otherwise was responding well to the gluten-free diet. As far as I know is still the picture of health. I often end up with pain in various parts of my gut if I eat too much rich food or certain types of fibre (for some reasons walnuts make my gut hurt, and rice cakes!) and and as a rule, the pain usually hangs around for a number of days, maybe up to a week.   When I bend over or turn, I can feel it.  I think this is actually due to my other diagnosis of IBS, for years I thought I had a rumbling appendix but I think it must have just been IBS.  Reading the experiences of other sufferers, it seems quite typical.  Sensitized gut, build up of gas - it stands to reason that the extra pressure of turning can increase the pain. When I am glutened I get a burning, gnawing pain in my stomach on and off for some days - it isn't constant, but it can take up a few hours of the day.  I believe this to be gastritis, but it seems to hurt irrespective of movement.   Anyway, you are doing the right thing to seek a professional opinion, though, so do let us know how you get on.   Meanwhile, might I suggest you drink peppermint tea, or try slices of fresh ginger in hot water? A lot of IBS sufferers say the former is very helpful in relieving cramps, etc, and the latter is very soothing on the stomach. Cristiana
