Burping & Breathing


Foxfire62

Recommended Posts

I am a recovering celiac, dx in 08-08. My villi went from severely to mildly atrophied/blunted. Right now, I am experiencing problems when drinking. I drink water, and I have been burping a lot and feeling almost like a lump in my throat. When I get this, my blood pressure appears to drop, and I feel tired. I don't understand why that is. I did have back-up/constipation problems, but I'm now having daily BMs.

Has anyone else experienced anything similar?

have you talked to your doctor about this? i vaguely recall this being something specific - when the blood pressure drop is included. it's not all that uncommon to get a fair amount of burpiness if you happen to swallow a lot of air when you're drinking, but if you're avoiding swallowing air, it's a bit unusual.

Yes , I have the exact same thing happening to me. I feel like there is a lump in my throat and sometimes it is hard to swallow. I have hypothyroidism and Celiac Disease and a herniated disc in my back plus a ton of symptoms from the Celiac. Some have lessened but I still have alot and I was diagnosed July 14th 2008.

I was always worried that I had something worse. I had tons of Mris, cat scans, seen a hemotologist, endocrinologist etc. I was eating out at mcdonalds for a long time just getting a hmburger without the bun. Probably not a good idea at all. To many cross contamination issues to deal with. I feel like I should be further along in my healing. The lump in my throat thing seems to be far worse after I get glutened though. <Ted>

Guys, pleased have your dr check this. My friend just had surgery last week for a cancerous thyroid. Her main symptom was trouble swallowing pills and food. She pushed her dr and he agreed to a sonogram of her thyroid. That showed enlargement which caused them to take a needle biopsy then to surgery. Just make sure you are not in her shoes. At first her dr didn't want to do anything about it. Get it check thoroughly.

This is very interesting Ang again you are very informed and a great asset of information. I too have trouble swallowing sometimes and with some foods if they aren't super moist I have problems swallowing them. I have no problem with cereal and saucy stuff but if my chicken isn't really moist I will have problems and then at other times I will just be sitting not eating or anything and will try to swallow and I have to use a lot of effort to get that initial swallow. Weird I think but I really hadn't thought much of it, just figured it was from my GERD... maybe I will have the thyroid check.

I have trouble swallowing sometimes too. I get the old glass of water going when that happens. For me it seems to happen further down nearer the stomach, not in the throat. I do have a couple thyroid nodules and a cyst. The doc told me there are different kinds of nodules. Some are active and some are not, and some are calcified. He said the calcified ones tend to be come cancerous a little more often than the non-calcified ones. But the rate of developing cancer is low.

This emedicine article says the cancer rate of nodules is fairly low. And that about 50% of adults have them.

Your symptoms are consistent with not fully controlled GERD. They may also be from other causes, so talk to your doctor.

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
