anyone here experience ONLY digestive problems?

As far as I know, this has been my only problem...the Big D. If I have other problems, I'm not yet aware of them.

This is the one-month mark for me being gluten-free. I had my EGD/biopsy on April 9 and have yet to have my follow-up appt. with my GI doc (appt. on May 20 as he's been out of town on a family emergency so my appt. had to be rescheduled).

Yep, that's my major symptom. Gas that can clear a house, severe BM issues including diarrhea and an inability to hold it, constant stomach pain and noises, etc. I think I also get a little brain fog, but I can't prove that yet. Usually I'm so distracted by the other issues, I don't notice!

I experience digestive problems (cramping, bloating, gas, either constipation or diarrhea) for gluten intolerance, 5 of my other allergies and the gut infections (bacteria, parasites and fungus) I experienced over the past 6 years. Only my cane sugar and casein allergy causes non-digestive reactions. I get 48 hours of tachycardia after ingesting a tiny amount of cane sugar (like one tylenol caplet which contained cane sugar). However, casein causes sinus congestion as well as waves of cramping pain and constipation.

I only have bloating. Nothing else (well possibly some fatigue, but it might just be laziness) No Big D... thank God.

Most of the symptoms I have seem to be related to digestive problems as long as I am gluten free. When glutened I develop mild but itchy DH, nerve pain, joint pain, swelling joints and other autoimmune symptoms. I have read that relatives of Celiacs have some digestive symptoms tho the blood tests for celiac disease are negative.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
