Stabbing Pains?

Hi all,

So I'm seeing the gastroenterologist on Wednesday to hear the results on 4 blood tests (1 for antibodies, 1 for celiacs and another 2 I can't remember) and I also did an ultrasoud and barium followthrough.

First off, with that combo of tests, what do you think he was looking for, other than gluten intolerance?

So, although I know I shouldn't in case he wants to do a biopsy, I've been gluten and dairy and soy free for the last 4 or 5 days, and tummy is still all over the place (poo every time I wee, floating greasy stools-are these symptoms of celiac?). Anyway tonight I was at dinner and we shared a bunch of stuff-I didn't eat cheese, or bread, but ate some fish pie. About 3 bites later my tummy started to cramp, pain. Bathroom 'explosion' in the pub toilet. Came home and had to run to the toilet for about 20 minutes with severe diarrhea.

I don't know if I was cross contaminated or if it was the dairy element, although I've never had such a quick reaction.

But my real question is right before I had to run to the bathroom I had shooting pains kind of from my lower abdomen into my upper thighs. I've had it before and felt it in other parts of my body. Is this a neuro symptom of celiac?

Any other advice grateully received!

I don't know if it was neuro related pain but I would think it had to do with the severe cramping. You mention eating 'fish pie' to me a pie has a crust, if it did it wasn't CC it was a full out glutening. We can't just eat the filling out of a pie or pick croutons out of a salad.

Also it takes time to heal, it is not an instant process so to still get ill during the first few weeks is normal.

It was a pie with mashed potato which is why I thought it would be ok...I guess there would have been milk in it though!

Okay like what I call Shepard's pie only with fish. Was there a 'gravy' in the pie? That could have been thickened with wheat. Of it could have just be CC if there was bread and other stuff that was being shared or if it was cooked in a not gluten free kitchen.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
