Symptoms Time Of Day.

My only symptom is major diarrhea that has lead to wight loss. I only have it in the morning. If I eat gluten on a Tuesday, then I have extremely bad diarrhea the next morning from 3am to around 7am. Is that normal. Is it possibly not the gluten or something? I still have not been diagnosed I am waiting to get in with the doctor so I feel like my life is just in limbo rite now. I was feeling so good when I stopped eating gluten and then I got sick and have been for the last few days with my old symptoms and I don't know how I got gluten in me. I have been racking my brain and googling every ingredient in everything I was cooking. I have been only cooking at home and being so careful.

I went on and on. haha I was wanting to know about the time of day thing.

I had the same problem (though not to the point of weight loss) but it got better when I quit gluten. However, I'm still having diarrhea to a lesser degree and suspect casein sensitivity. So I'm giving up dairy shortly. You might want to try the gluten free casein free diet and see if that helps with your problem. (You might also be lactose intolerant, like I was (see sigline); that obviously would also get better if you went dairy free.)

Best of luck, I hope you find a solution soon, and welcome to the board.

For many years my D was in the am only but after I woke up. Once my system cleared I would take immodium and be safe for the rest of the day. Then things changed and the D would strike at any time of day and at the very end, for the last 5 years before I was diagnosed it would wake me up painfully every night and I would be up from about 2 am to 5 am until my body was done relieving itself of anything I ate the day before. The fact that you are being woken in the middle of the night by the D is a sign of celiac. After I was finally diagnosed my GI actually listened to me after years of telling me that I had IBS and told me that IBS does not wake someone up, it happens only during the day.

I seem to get D in the mornings also. Not to say it doesnt happen any other time of the day...mostly mornings.

I would be interested to know how many others have this issue.

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!

      Have you tried a genetic test to look for Celiac genes?  No gluten challenge required.

      Hello, @ElisaAllergiesgluten, Have you tried going on a low histamine Paleo diet like the Autoimmune Protocol diet?  A low histamine AIP diet would help your body rid itself of the extra histamine it's making in response to allergies.  Are you Celiac as well?   Since we need more thiamine when we're stressed, adding Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine Vitamin B 1, can help the body calm down it's release of histamine.  Benfotiamine improves Sailors' asthma.

      Don't skimp on the gluten daily while undergoing the gluten challenge!
