Pain pills can make you constipated.

Your post is very poorly written and typed. Not your usual posting style. Maybe the pills are too much. Or try another type? I get really messed up be some of the pain killers and can't see straight.

I hope you take that the way it was intended. Not meant to make you mad. But I'll take the chance of making you angry because a post about pain pills that is so poorly typed makes me worried.

Like Karen I, too, am concerned with this disjointed post. Hope you are doing better now??!!

Percocet, etc. can cause constipation, dizziness, nausea, vomiting... (I was on it in the past). I am starting a new pain med (for fibro and so on) and have been having a bit of trouble growing accustomed to it. It makes me nauseous, dizzy and causes general malaise but I was warned about the side effects by the pharmacist. If it does not help in its allotted time I will wean myself off as I do not like medications unless necessary.

I would recommend not driving or doing anything that requires alertness until you are used to them. Percocet can be habit forming (wasn't for me at all) so just keep that in mind. Believe me - I have tried nearly 20 kinds of pain meds and thus far not one has been successful but one should always have hope!

Take care of yourself! :)

Are you absolutely positive those pills are gluten free? As was mentioned that type of med usually causes C not D. Like the others I am also concerned about your possibly being overmedicated or that you may be having a gluten reaction to these pills combined with the sedative effect of them. It might not be a bad idea to contact your doctor about what is going on but please have someone else drive you in if he needs to see you.

When I was on Percocet they were gluten-free BUT that was a few months ago and of course, as we all know, things can change in a hurry. So, I agree - if you have not checked that, you really need to! :)

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By trents · Posted

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Samanthaeileen1 · Posted

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.
