Hey everybody, i have recently found out that i am allergic to Gluten. And i have terrible pains on the left side of my stomach, kinda like a cramp. Is there anything i can take to help ease the pain. Also, i have only started to cut the Gluten products a little less than a week ago when do you think i start feeling better?

Welcome to the forum!

There have been some recent posts about that type of pain. If you use Search Forum you will be able to find a lot of information from other posters.

Give yourself some more time. One week is not very long. You may notice some changes in a couple of weeks or months. Be patient, it will come.

Did you stop all gluten products or just cut back? Make sure to stop all gluten containing products and take it easy on the processed gluten free products. It is best in the beginning to eat whole foods like meats, fruits and veggies so you can start to heal.

I find Pepto Bismal liquid stops the pain very quickly and I rarely need a second dose.

Welcome to the board. There is a lot to learn about being gluten free as it involves much more than just the food we eat. Your in a great place to learn about all you need to do to keep yourself safe.

Make sure you have your own new dedicated toaster, replace any wooden utensils, your colander that has been used to drain wheat pasta, any scratched cookware and avoid baking with wheat flour for others. Also be sure to check all meds and supplements you are taking. Generic scripts need to be checked at each refill.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.

      I had MRI scan a few years ago showing everything normal, and now it's no longer triggering the nerve pain when I bow my head today - it only seemed to happen yesterday, and that was the only time it happened! Just seemed weird as no movement has caused my usual nerve pain before. It's normally just random.

      Very good pizzeria with small dining room in back of the restaurant. The owner's daughter has celiac & they have gluten free pizza & a gluten free menu. Some items from the regular menu can be made gluten free also. They have a lunch menu which we ordered from & my chicken with spinach & mozzarella over gluten-free penne was delicious. They also have Tuesday night pasta specials & Thursday night chicken pasta specials. We plan on going back for dinner soon.

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia and @Russ H thank you both for your helpful advice and information. I haven't seen a GI in years. They never helped me aside from my inital diagnosis. All other help has come from my own research, which is why I came here. I will be even more careful in the future.

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, you are welcome. After looking at this thread again, I would like to suggest that some of the other comments from @Russ H are worth following up on. The bird-bread may or may not be contributing to what you are experiencing, but it seems unlikely to be the whole story. If you have access to decent healthcare, I would write down your experiences and questions in outline form and bring this to your Dr. I suggest writing it down so you don't get distracted from telling the Dr everything you want to say while you have their attention.
