How So Is The Urge To Go Potty Increase When Near The Toilet?

I have been wondering why I can just about no longer hold my diarrhea in when I reach the bathroom. I know this was not before I had celiac disease symptoms. It happens all the time just about. Has anyone else noticed this?

I feel out of control to hold back the tide!

I had uncontrolled D until I went gluten-free. I couldn't even make it to a bathroom fast enough sometimes.

Are you totally gluten free? Have you tossed out old scratched non-stick pans and plastic/wooden utensils? I can't do the subject of cross-contamination justice, but if you use the search engine on this forum, you'll find a wealth of information. The other thing I'd look into is secondary food intolerances, like soy, dairy, glucose, nightshade vegetables, legumes.

Have you cleaned out your refrigerator and silverware drawer? (Buy a new plastic thing to separate your utensils, get a new toaster or forget about toast for awhile. Concentrate on eating whole foods like meat, poultry, fish, all vegetables, especially root veggies and some fruit. If you grill and have a grill you used to toast buns on, I'm convinced you can't get the gluten out of the grill. You'll need to grill on foil or buy a new grill.

If you have celiac disease and have been gluten-free for 4 weeks you shouldn't have D anymore. I hope you figure out what's bugging you.

You may need to pack your lunch and not eat out for awhile. Good luck. You can find the answers her that doctors don't tell you.

Thanks. All things considered I still cant figure out, ok this is gross, but what I was saying is that I can hold it in driving in the car for example, BUT as I turn up the driveway and know that I will be able to relieve myself, the ability to hold it in collapses

into a mess in my pants. Not all the time but sometimes that happens. If I make it to the bathroom with tightly squeezed cheeks, I can barely wait to sit on the toilet to let it go into the the water.

I am just wondering why this happens. It is so unpleasant and absolutely embarrassing and a big clean up mess for me.

OK as said GROSS OUT.

Not really the same but that's like me when I have to wee :(

I walk into the hallway then sometimes can't make it to the loo :(

I'm not sure but I think it's our brain that tells our system we're close so it's ok now :/

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
