Nausea As A Symptom?

I have dealt with nausea problems for years and years. I had an EGD last year, and the doc found chronic stomach inflammation. It really, has a negative impact on my life. I have had many other issues, including poor absorption problems. As I look into gluten as a source of my problems, I wondered if anyone here has had nausea as a symptom. It is really bad as of late. I was going to wait until after the holidays to try a gluten free diet to see if I see a difference. However, I am feeling so bad lately that I am wondering if I shouldn't try it sooner.

Yes, yes very much yes. I had all the symptoms you are having before I went gluten free. And I get nasuea when I get any gluten now.

Nausea is definitely one of my symptoms as well. You're not alone. And going gluten-free (and corn-free for me, as I am also intolerant to corn) mitigated my symptoms.

I had nausea for years before I found out. Did the doctor do a biopsy after your EGD last year? Bloodwork? Taking into consideration your chronic inflammation, poor absorption along with the nausea, I would suggest you try the diet now (unless you plan on further testing). We can help you navigate the holidays gluten-free--it's really not so hard.

I'd rather be gluten-free during the holidays (or anytime) than be sick and nauseous. :)

I get a weird nauseous/gagging feeling sometimes and I attribute it to the celiac.

Yup, I had tons of nausea. First it was off and on, maybe just after eating.. but then it got so that I was always nauseous. I've been working on being gluten-free for about 3 days now and since I've started, it's gone down some.

      Iron loss and potential celiac.

      Yes, it does. And joint pain is another celiac symptom that is now well-recognized.

      Does my iron loss sound like celiac to you?

      Iron loss and potential celiac.

      Being as how you are largely asymptomatic, I would certainly advise undertaking a gluten challenge in order to get formal testing for celiac disease. We have many forum participants who become violently ill when they undertake a gluten challenge and they therefore can't carry through with it. That doesn't seem to be the case with you. The reason I think it...

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @ThomasA55! Before I give my opinion on your question about whether or not you should undergo a gluten challenge, I would like to know how you react when you get a good dose of gluten? Are you largely asymptomatic or do you experience significant illness such as nausea and diarrhea? You mentioned intermittent joint...

      Being as how you are largely asymptomatic, I would certainly advise undertaking a gluten challenge in order to get formal testing for celiac disease. We have many forum participants who become violently ill when they undertake a gluten challenge and they therefore can't carry through with it. That doesn't seem to be the case with you. The reason I think it is important for you to get tested is that many or most people who don't have a formal diagnosis find it difficult to be consistent with the gluten-free diet. They find ways to rationalize that their symptoms are due to something other than celiac disease . . . especially when it becomes socially limiting.  The other factor here is by being inconsistent with the gluten free diet, assuming you do have celiac disease, you are likely causing slow, incremental damage to your gut, even though you are largely asymptomatic. It can take years for that damage to get to the point where it results in spinoff health problems. Concerning genetic testing, it can't be used for diagnosis, at least not definitively. Somewhere between 30 and 40% of the general population will have one or both of the two genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease. Yet, only about 1% of the general population will develop active celiac disease. But the genetic testing can be used as a rule out for celiac disease if you don't have either gene. But even so, that doesn't eliminate the possibility of having NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).

Are you largely asymptomatic or do you experience significant illness such as nausea and diarrhea? You mentioned intermittent joint pain before you began experimenting with a low gluten diet. Anything else?
