I Don't Know Whats Wrong

For the last month I've had some side cramping after I eat. Been trying hard to work around that. Recsently, I've started to cramp more, bloat and vomit after I eat lunch. Usually the pain and cramps start first.

I came home from work yesterday and today vomiting. This time however, my stomach started to burn before i got sick. The nausea med seems to make me hurt more. So, I'll be double checking that. I'm going to call my gastro tomorrow, but it will probably take awhile to get in eith even a PA.

I've never had vomitting as a glutened symptom.

I even thought ulcer, but it hurts like I have eaten straight up gluten. I don't cheat and try to be very careful. Any ideas?

appendicitis? Open Original Shared Link

Sounds like it is getting steadily worse? You might want to call that gastro asap and get an emergency appointment. Would be much better than him/her seeing in the emergency department.

What/Where did you have lunch?

They didn't think it was my appenditics. However, thisis the same MD that gave me a smalole of Donnatal to try and it's not on the list @ glutenfreedrugs. She said she couldn't find anyother med to take it's place that was gluten-free. She told me to try it anyway, "it probably only has trace amounts"!

At least she did some blood work and I got something for nausea.

I eat in my lunchroom at school (work) I put down paper towels to eat on. Today, two rice cakes, Hormel turkey meat, a safe sadald dressing I've had before, carrot sticks and some lettus. I had my gallbladder check almost two years ago and it was 97 functioning. I work and live in a shared enviroment. I can control the home one better.

Yesterday was a noodle pasta salad with tuna mixed in.

I'm a nut for hand washing and I wear plastic food gloves when needed.

      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

      "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.
