Horrible Reaction, Gassy, Need Recovery Help


glutenated

Recommended Posts

About three months ago I began taking my intolerance to gluten very seriously. When ingested I get "the feeling", extremely bloated, lingering gas smells, and very foul smelling stool. It's been so bad I have been embarrassed in social situations. About a two weeks ago I started craving bad foods and went off the diet a few times. Last Monday I ate Pizza for lunch (bad bad boy) and I paid dearly for it. Usually I can recover quickly from cheating but it has gotten much worse since I have been staying on gluten-free diet. After a few days I was ok, with the exception of extreme gas after eating lactose, meats and eggs. A new symptom is occurring - After making a BM and being glutened, when I sit down I am exerting gas to the point where other people have noticed. This could be up to an hour after going to the bathroom. I am wondering what I should eat to heal my insides. I still (a week after) feel torn up and am trying to be good but noticing that heartier foods still aren't being digested properly. Should I just keep eating bland for a while? Will the gas and strong odored stool get better?

Keep bland until your body can handle it.

Probiotics.

Digestive enzymes with every meal.

No refined carbs or starches.

Make sure your supplaments are gluten-free.

Maybe an anti-gas med?

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Yes this is very frustrating for me ... not sure what to think.  Feels like I'm having reactions to a lot of things  Now applesauce?? I don't understand 😞

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you

      Anyone else get pins and needles. ??? Burning feeling ? Heat makes it so much worse 😔  Winter is here.  I had to lower my thermostat because I couldn't take that hot air feeling 😔  Hopefully it goes away soon

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".
