Rumbling, Grumbling, Gurgling Madness!

Does it stop with the gluten free diet? I haven't started the diet yet, because I have read enough to know that I should wait until AFTER the horrid intestinal biopsy is done.

One of the most annoying things (and embarassing!!) is HOW LOUD my tum tum is. My customers comment on it at least once a day. <_<

People are always telling me to eat something, offering me food *of course its not going to help, 98% of the time its pizza or donuts or something else loaded with the evile gluten*

I am constantly digesting or hungering... sigh

My gurgling didn't stop until I quit fruit and fruit juice and started eating fairly gigantic quantities of vegetables, almost two years after going gluten free. I think that both moves contributed to quelling the gurgling, but I appear to suffer from fructose malabsorption, which you may not. Why not try both, but one at a time, and see if either help? It'll be something to take your mind off still having to eat gluten anyway.:)

(Short answer to your question: not necessarily.)

My loud stomach was gone within the first couple of weeks. It started for me in childhood and was so loud I would carry a sweater or jacket to ball up on my tummy if I had to be somewhere quiet like a theather or a school class. The only time it growls now is if I injest gluten or large amounts of dairy. The same goes for gas, with the exception of if I have been drinking a lot of carbonated beverages. Even beans don't get me.

Yes, for the most part it stopped once the evil gluten was omitted. I understand the angst over it!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      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.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
