Pressure

I have this agonizing pressure in my upper abdomen, right under my ribcage. Feels like a gas bubble. Did anybody experience anything similar to that and did it go away?

I have the exact same thing. I've been diagnosed with gastritis and that's what the dr said it was. I still have it. I hope it goes away soon because it's driving me nuts! I've been gluten free for 5 weeks now.

Try some digestive enzymes and probiotics.

I got that last week when I either got glutened or had major pms (don't ask...).

I used to get acid attacks - too much stomach acid. This time I got too much acid, followed by too little stomach acid (I think). Too much acid = clenching knot. Too little = ball that just hangs out under my ribs after a meal.

Anyway, the digestive enzymes with food helped move the food faster, relieving the pressure. The probiotics helps level out your intestines.

There's another supplement others have taken for low stomach acid, I can't remember the name but search the site. It helps, I think. I didn't bother because mine passed quickly but if this becomes my new gluten signal I'm buying some.

      Sorry, I think I got you mixed up with another poster.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
