How To Make The Stomach Ache Go Away?...

Hi! I am a new member of the gluten free forum and I have been feeling alone in my gluten free, dairy free lifestyle for a while. I'm also bumbed tonight because I accidentally ate some sausage that had gluten in in, and is now making me feel sick. I have been doing this for over a year and every once in a while I forget to read the ingredients and I pay the price. My stomach bloats up like a balloon and I get extremely constipated. Lately I have just been eating the same thing every day to cut back on the risk. Question for everybody.... is there any solutions after accidentally eating gluten to cut down on the pain and stomach discomfort?... I have found Gasx helps a little bit in the past but lately it doesn't seem to touch my stomach discomfort.

And yes, to everyone out there wearing the pregnancy shirts I can relate. Trying to be gluten free as well as starting up yoga have been the only way my stomach has slowly deflated. My husband was always teasing me about it which was horrible ( I had to cut him down to size). :blink:<_<

But now I'm just worried that my monotonous daily eating routinue will have to continue forever more....

I would love anybody's advice or bits of knowledge

I'm still learning and currently doing an elimination diet, but chamomile tea helps with tummy problems of any kind. It's also pretty tasty. Try to get ahold of loose leaf though, it's more pure. I'm big on teas :) Oh and drink plenty of water.

Magnesium Citrate is something I took to help with constipation. I think I have read a few on here say magnesium as well.

I tend to get indigestion sometimes where my stomach (not lower abdomen) blows up noticeably and then I burp for hours on end. Eating a pickle and taking a swig of juice would knock it out quickly. It was the claussen brand though. Someone from here noted I probably have an acidic imbalance. Either way it worked, none-the-less.

Good luck, I know it sucks!

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
