I saw Dr. Lee at the Celiac Center in NY last week. Basically, she prescribed a similar medicine (Nexium) to the one my own GI gave me (Prilosec). These meds make me feel WORSE. Anyone else have this experience? I would like some suggestions as to natural products to help with burning/pain in stomach and nausea. Help!

I use this homeopathis remedy sometimes when I need it.It is called Stomach Distress by Liddell. It helps relieve nausea, cramps, indigestion, and other stomach problems..

besides that mints, teas, and rice are good.

Kaiti,

Thanks, where would I buy Stomach Distress?

My mom gets it from the Vitamin Shoppe. We got another bottle of it because it works so good.

Has anyone found this at another store? There's apparently no Vitamin Shoppe in this state - although I have heard of the place. <_< I hate ordering online.

You could check at other health food stores...we hate ordering online too what we usually do is get the phone # and call our order in...so if you can't find it that's always an idea.

My favorite remedies are DGL Licorice (that's deglyccorized licorice which means it doesn't have the hormone in it that raises blood pressure) and aloe vera juice. The DGL licorice is so great that whenever I have heartburn it works better than Tums or Rolaids do. It's also better for you. When my stomach is in a bad way, if I take two about 20 mins before eating I feel much better. I have a coworker who healed his ulcer taking it.

Aloe is just soothing, even though to me it tastes something like band aids! (if you can imagine drinking band-aids!) :)

I prefer to go with natural supplements as often as possible as I have had bad experiences taking OTC and Rx meds too much.

Hope this helps!

Ginger also works well. Vitamin/natural food stores usually have pieces of dried ginger that you can buy, and you just need to chew a little piece for it to relieve your stomach. If you don't want to do that, I enjoy ginger teas.

Another thing I also noticed that works well is Reed's ginger chews. They work well but not as good as the stuff I previously recommended.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      Well, three months later and a startling revelation! After going gluten free (and nearly bankrupt buying special foods), my wife made a lunch of meat potatoes and gravy made with Bertolli white sauce - no wheat there right? Big flare up withing hours and I was really wiped out with it. She rechecks the label on the sauce bottle and right at the bottom...

      Could this be a new intolerance

      Unfortunately, the development of celiac disease usually is not an end in and of itself. It usually brings along friends, given time. It is at heart an immune system dysfunction which often embraces other immune system dysfunctions as time goes on.

      Thanks so much for the responses. I will urge him to go for further investigation. To be 48yrs old and develop a new allergy.. ugh, As if celiac disease isn’t enough!

      This does not seem to be an anaphylactic response but I agree it would be wise to seek allergy-food sensitivity testing. You might look into ALCAT food sensitivity testing.

      Could this be a new intolerance

      @Celiacpartner, I agree with Scott. We have a food festival yearly in the town I live in, with artisan food stalls everywhere. I spoke to the owner of one of the artisan burger stalls, enquiring if the burgers were gluten-free when I said I was Coeliac ... he said he had a serious anaphylactic allergy to fish himself. He possibly carries an epi-pen or...

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By StuartJ · Posted

      Well, three months later and a startling revelation!  After going gluten free (and nearly bankrupt buying special foods), my wife made a lunch of meat potatoes and gravy made with Bertolli white sauce - no wheat there right?  Big flare up withing hours and I was really wiped out with it.  She rechecks the label on the sauce bottle and right at the bottom of the ingredients XANTHAN GUM. There's our #1 suspect again!  So by way of experimenting, she decided to try making a loaf of bread with just regular white flour like she used to do and see what happened; the familiar smell hit me when I walked in the door last night and I sat down to eat this still warm, fresh goodness - I thought even if I have to take Imodium sandwiches, it will be worth it 😋 No ill effects, either overnight or today!  Half the loaf is now gone because I had some for supper, saving just one last slice for breakfast in the morning` - I've used the bathroom once and that was normal, so maybe it is not the gluten after all? Can't wait to try a beer! 😁
