Bloating/gas

Can you still have problems with bloating/gas if you are gluten free? I mean just because we are gluten free doesn't mean we will never be bloated or have gas again, right?

You can still be bloated and have gas if you are intolerant to something else. I developed other intolerances after my body was finally absorbing foods I was not during 30+ years of misdiagnosed/undiagnosed celiac disease. Now gluten, dairy, soy and MSG cause bloating in me.

Personally, I can have the exact same meal and get gas/bloating at least part of the time. I think it depends on a lot of factors (time of day, speed of ingestion, etc.)

I've been gluten-free for over a year now. Recently, I experimented with the Paleo diet at the recommendation of my Rhumatologist. Bloating/gas was never something I considered bothersome and even before going gluten-free, I had relatively few digestive complaints. Well, after 2 weeks of the Paleo diet, my stomach was as flat as when I was a teen and my hubby thought I lost weight. (I was even thinking how nice my figure looked. Then, I caved in and broke the diet only to discover instant bloating and gas pain along with a pouffy belly. I guess living with bloating every day felt normal and I didn't realize it until it was gone. So after two more weeks off paleo, I'm starting up again with the intent of finding a middle ground that is less restrictive, but has less gas. I'm hoping for no grain/soy, but more natural sweetner and fruit.

Best wishes.

Certain foods will cause gas and bloating in people whether celiac or not. My husband who is not Celiac will have problems with bean dishes such as chili and mexican dishes. I've also banned him from Fat Tire beer....those are the worst farts ever :P

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By mermaidluver22 · Posted

      @Scott Adams Thank you so much for this thoughtful and encouraging reply 💛 It really helps me feel less alone navigating all of this! I’ve definitely been strict gluten-free, but I’ll admit — in the beginning, I honestly knew nothing about cross-contamination 😅 so it’s very possible my gut is still healing from that. I feel very abnormal because I am not a typical celiac or a typical Crohn's, so it makes me feel very stuck.

      Hi still the same unfortunately, they had to cancel my colonoscopy due to my trapped nerve , I'm awaiting some kind of scan , it was the nurses who  told me to refuse and asked a docter , and I was told to cancel and go back to my consultant , I think because my sciatic nerve is compressed between my herniated discs , the prep was enough I could handle , but the colonoscopy itself , they advised me to seek something different ,due to the position I had to be in and the movements , so I will update Wen I know more , thankyou for asking appreciated 🤗

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if they have refractory disease or delayed healing. Keeping close follow-up with your GI and possibly revisiting your diet for hidden gluten sources could help. Hang in there—it’s a journey, and you’re doing great by staying proactive!
