The Weirdest Thing!

Hi all. So, yes I know this is going to sound flat out weird, but we talk about everything so here goes: for the last two days, I have been getting this very strange sensation that feels like an intermittent internal vibration. It's between my hip bones, so I am thinking it's intestinal in nature.

When I put my hands over that area, I can't feel anything from the outside. What in the heck is this? It's happened about 20 times today. It will "vibrate" off and on for a few minutes, then go away, then come back later. It's the strangest thing.

I am one year gluten free, btw. Thanks!

PS. I sure do hope this isn't one more thing that makes me extra special :blink:

Yep, you're special. :).

Is it all the way across or in a small area? I'm assuming it's not a baby. :) Is it like a twitchy muscle? I get those sometimes in other places and it usually means I need some potassium. Did you exercise differently or move furniture or something? Pulled muscle is all I can think of. I'm sure others will come up with something more interesting.

Ummm....yeah, I was thinking a baby. Is that possible? They usually do a fluttery thing several times an hour...

Wolicki Enthusiast

Ha, that's funny. No, no baby. It's not like that fluttery feeling, it feels like a pager is going off in my belly. Right smack in the middle, between the pubic bone and belly button. Ooh I just dated myself didn't I? Some here wont know what a pager vibrating feels like :blink: OK so for the younger folk, imagine your cell phone on vibrate.

I always knew I was special :lol:

Haven't done really anything different. Doesn't seem like a pulled muscle. Saturday we went on a 4 hour bike ride, but that's not much longer than usual. The weird feeling started on Sunday.

i've had that before! it could be "trapped" gas, but a 4 hour bike ride can effect nerves and muscles for sure so i'd also think it could just be spasms from that. :)

Wolicki Enthusiast

Oh, phew! Thank you for your reply. Just knowing someone else has had it is a huge relief! There have been more than a few things that I have had that no one else has ever experienced.

No weird vibrations this am so far! Thanks a bunch.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
