Stomach Problems

Recommended Posts

So, my stomach has tried to kill me tonight. I'm trying to figure out what did it. I've currently got the "D" (really liquidy, yellow, and slightly foamy? ick), stomach cramps, major gas (huh?!? thats a first), cotton throat (have had this for the past few days on and off, attributing it to allergies), and tiredness.

I have not eaten much today but:

A couple of corn tortillas with a little honey

prunes (4 of them)

and half a bowl of my leftover mac and cheese.

Today was the day i had to take a midterm. I forgot to pack away something and didnt get out of there till 2. THen i got back here and discovred the wasp issue (still unresolved atm) and forgot about it till around 4 when i ate the prunes. My stomach was feeling sort of off (kinda like when i'm still hungery) so i fixed some mac and cheese an hour later.

I can't go to the store till friday and thats pretty much whats left in my fridge. I didn't "go" yesterday (something that happens from time to time, i think its because i don't eat enough), so i thought the prunes would be fine.

I'm kinda thinking it was the culprit this time :( I feel like i did before i went gluten free.

Another possibility is that i had to use several computers today that were not my own and were icky. I had to clear my throat (yay allergies and post nasal drip) I believe i put a finger in my mouth on accident. Stupid tissue.

Anyways, thoughts?

I would try to keep a normal diet for a while to see if it really was caused by the keyboards. If not, I would pay attention not only to the prunes, but also to the mac and cheese. I dunno, you just seem to eat it a lot and for something to bother you this badly, might not be something so new...

I know :( I just need to go shopping and can't until friday so i'm making do.

I'm going to -try- to eat a normal diet and see what happens.

Sometimes stuff just happens. It could be that your body decided it didn't like not being fed properly. Maybe the mac&cheese went off? (when did you cook it? I seem to have problems with leftovers even when they were fine the first time. So weird). Wouldn't think of the icky keyboard, but who knows...

Anyway, hope you feel better. Maybe lay off the prunes for a bit.

Take care!

I'm going with the prunes on this one too. Bad things happen when I eat red peppers. Sometimes it takes a while to figure something out.

Unless you eat corn on a regular basis, i"m going with the corn. I only recently found out corn does exactly what you described to me. I cerently hope it"s not corn, you think gluten is in everything. Corn is even worse, hopefully it"s not corn or prunes. I hate to see anybody lose a food item from there safe list.

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
