Only Three Days Into Gulten Free And My Urination Habbits Are Different

So this is my first topic and my first post.

I suffer from IBS so I have decided to try going Gulten Free because a friend told me that a wheat allergy or Celiac can be misdiagnosed as IBS. So I am on a Gulten Free diet to see if it improves my IBS, but I have ran into another problem, my urination habits have changed. Now I am only on my forth day, but I seem to be peeing tons more often beginning half way through the second day. I have been tested for diabetes and thyroid and that is not the case. So is the peeing alot a symptom of the detoxing?

Hi ... frequency of urination could be symptomatic of the start of a UTI, is your urine cloudy or smelly (if so get tested for a UTI) or are you just drinking more, i can't remember if my urinary habits changed after going gluten-free as it was 8 years ago and I have the notorious Celiac memory. But I'm sure others here will be able to help you more.....Also certain vegetables are a diuretic....

I pee ALL the time...its ridiculous. I've been to doctors to see if there is an underlying problem but the only thing they can think of is that it must be connected to celiac disease!

i notice a difference.... before gluten free days, i had days where i seemed to have to pee every 20min (not all day, everyday). it comes back when i gluten myself and usually a couple hours before i get it all out of my system. i can go 1/2 the day now before i feel the urge...on a good day.

I too have noticed an increase in urination but never until now linked it to my gluten free diet! It was around the time that I went gluten-free that I noticed this increase and have been tested for diabetes etc. but nothing!

Same here! Since going gluten free I'm constantly peeing. I also feel thirstier than I was before but I don't think I'm drinking more, just the sensation of thirst is stronger, if that makes sense.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule.

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease. Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too. is this everyone’s experience? Can I drink it? I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant react...

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
