Cramps And Pain

When you get glutened or eat one of your trigger foods on accident, as the pain lessens, do you ever get gas with mucus? I know that I have serious corn problems but I drank 2 sodas over the weekend and ever since, I have had an armpit rash that is now bleeding and gas, cramps and mucus. It's driving me nuts! -

Ow! Don't have the gastro symptoms myself, but just wanted to give you a virtual hug for the pain. *big honkin' hug*

Do you have anything that seems to help the rash? If you have any prickly pear cactus or aloe vera plants nearby, the inner pulp of both of those has worked well on any rashes my children have had.

My gastro symptoms are fairly mild. I used to get a lot of gas, pain and mucus(either on its own or with loose stools) prior going gluten free. Now, if I get glutened, I still get the gas and the pain, but I get D instead of mucus, followed by C for a while. Seems to be a case of swings and roundabouts!

Sorry about the itchy rash. Not a fun place for it to come out.

I am exactly the opposite. I use to get D with pain and gas. Now I don't get D, I get floating stool and mucus with pain and gas. I think that the mucus forms a protective layer that keeps a toxin from getting through and when it senses gluten, it makes a lot kind of like when your nasal passages produce mucus when you have a nasal allergy or a cold.

Thanks about the rash. It's pretty uncomfortable but it's getting better day by day.

Thanks for answering.

TH - thanks for the tips for the rash! I will try them.

Gluten-Free-of you have a problem with salicylates don't use the aloe! It's very high, the prickly pear would probably be, also since its a plant.

If not, try it. Both are very soothing.

Can you describe the armpit rash? Is it spot like, scabbed, mega itchy? It is a common DH area. If it is driving you nuts you probably can describe it and for us DH suffer'ers you'll probably get a response.

Thats exactly what it looks like. Scabbed, insanely itchy. It's horrible. I use to get DH on my knees now it's my elbows, armpits and scalp.

Sorry you got hit. I definitely get pain and gas, but I haven't noticed mucous. There is usually do much extreme D in there, I don't know if I'd notice it.

Thanks! I usually get the mucous after the D is all finished. :angry:

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
