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....

no my pee is normal, in color and in smell. maybe i am drinking more water and not really noticing it. But i am pretty sure my water drinking habits are the same are even less then before.

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.

      What are your daily meals? Guilty pleasure snacks? Protein bars? I feel when looking for gluten free foods they are filled with sugar cholesterol. Looking for healthy gluten-free protein bars. Something to fill since sometimes I feel like not to eat anything. Especially if on vacation and unsure of cross contamination I figure go with a salad and protein bar to fill and play it safe.

      Unfortunately, there is presently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. NCGS is thought to be much more common than celiac disease. We know that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder but the mechanism of NCGS is less clear. Both call for an elimination of gluten from the diet.

      Thanks for your reply Trents…most appreciated.  I am unfamiliar with celiac labs terminology so I wanted to know if the presence of HLA variants (DA:101, DA:105, DQB1:0301 and DQB1:0501) that the labs detected had any merit in predisposing one to be more sensitive to gluten/carbs than the general population?  Also,  I found what you said about NCGS very interesting and I appreciate you mentioning that.  I’ve worked hard to research and advocate for myself with my Hematologist and now with a new GI, since my bowel surgery and to maintain my Vitamin B12 health concurrent with keeping my levels of Iron in the optimal range. I’ve been tested for SIBO (do not have it), biopsy showed negative for HPylori, and have had Fecal studies done (nothing showed up) and I understand how a loss of a large amount of bowel could be highly impacting re: SIBO, malabsorption and motility issues. So I’ve managed pretty well diet and elimination-wise until just recently. That said, this new problem with extreme bloating, distention and upper girth, NAFLD just occured over the last 4 months so it is new for me and I thought celiac might be a possible issue. I’ll probably just continue on in this less gluten/carbs seem to be better for me and see how reintroducing certain foods go.  Thanks again.

      Thanks bumped it up and now take all 3 vitamins 2 capsules each with the super b complex at breakfast. I will give it some time to see if I notice a difference. I am going to track my eating daily diary on a myfitness pal app to see if the "claimed" gluten free foods bother me or not.

      Please can anyone help. I was diagnosed on 23rd December and I am trying my best to get my head around all the things to look out for. I have read that yeast extract is not to be eaten by coeliacs. Why? And is this all yeast extract. Or is this information wrong. Thanks.
