hello

since starting a post in pre diagnosis i have a very important question

how long does the bloating last when you go gluten free?

im having a baaaad time of it...

also i have incorporated basically all raw foods into my diet and have noticed some parts of food not being digested properly?

is this just damage from long term abuse and will get better over time? or should i be concerned?

recently developed UTI ( im a male? ) er doc std it was prostate but never checked me for it? not sayen i wanted him too i just think its weird? ( on antibiotics

I threw this in in case there may be a connection that someone else is aware of?

all thoughts theories appreciated

If you are early in the healing process then raw veggies will likely be hard to digest.

Raw foods are harderon your digestive tract. Try taking a digestive enzyme when you eat. The bloating kind of suggests that the food is sitting there too long IMO?

Also, as soon as you're done with the antbiotic be sure to take probiotics. They help balance the "flora" in the gut and help with digestion too.

Kind of irritating that you were diagnosed with something they didn't really check you for? It must have felt like they wre just trying to get you out of there?

You may want to follow up with your Primary Care Dr.? Having UTIs and Diabetes *might* suggest you have a low IGG level in your blood? You'd have to ask for that test, but it could be that you're low, which can be treated.

Unfortunately the IGG level is a blood test. If yours is low, you're more likely to get repeated infections because your body doesn't fight things off very well.

If you are low in IGG they can give you an infusion or shots to boost it. They also know to give you antibiotics if you have signs of infection starting.

I was diagnosed about a year ago and the bloat only got better about two weeks ago when I decided to clue into the fact that I had been gluten free for 1 year and I was still bloating after most meals.I cut out all dairy & lactose and suddenly no more bloat. So I would personally get off all diary and see what happens.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      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 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      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!
