About Me

01/09 went to emergency room for severe bloating and cramping in stomach

02/09 follow-up with above to go over symptoms of diarrhea, bloating, upset stomach, and cramps. Lots of blood work was done and scheduled Colonoscopy and Endoscopy

03/09 Both Colon and Endo were done, and blood back, no lactose, no celiac, no signs of UC or Chrons. Only mild colitis in Colon and GERD.

04/09 problems get worse even on Lialda and Aciphex. I demanded more blood be done to rule out Chrons and UC and scheduled CT Scan.

05/09 CT Scan only showed diverticulosis. Blood triggers negative for UC and Chrons

07/09 After months of being frustrated went back to new specialist who told me I could have SIBO. And he thinks regardless of biopsies I could have Celiac because my mom does and everything seems to fit as far as symptoms and history.

08/09 Hydrogen breath test normal. Very little spiking no concern.

09/09 Voluntarily went Gluten free to try to self Diagnosis.

10/09 feel much better as far as stomach pain, but continue to have the big D at bowel movement time. and every morning after coffee and breakfast I get stomach issues and feel as if I can go to bathroom at any moment. My morning ritual includes milk! I am now thinking I was never checked properly for lactose intolerance?

03/10 Told I was Lactose intolerant, Sent to Lahey Clinic to see specialist. Entire Blood Panel was positive for Celiac for first time. I had Endoscopy and await Biopsys results.

    Richard, I am not trying to argue with you. Gluten and Milk products are in most procssed deli meats. Especially milk. Dietz and Watson is only meat in my Shaws or Hannafords that actually states GLUTEN Free(sure their are many more). If all meats were gluten free or dairy free why does one mfg make claim this and no one else seems to. Also I looked at about...

    Most pepperoni contains stater culture which is milk product and does not state contains milke product.

    gluten-free for three weeks now and stools are on and off and far as substance. I mainly go once a day. I am confirmed celiac through blood and Endo. My issue is belly being constantly bloated and gurgling. That has yet to subside. Working on new strategies for that though like lowering lactose intake.

    Beward most processed meats contain gluten. it is a processing agent. Ask Deli counter person for Gluten free meats. They are out there. Like Boars head. Stuff is everywhere. Look at most peperoni sticks that actually contain milk products and no one would ever know

    From Website Q. How much gluten does this contain? A. We do not add any gluten to our products. However, we cannot guarantee that all raw materials are 100% gluten-free. I have heard this alot with products and the cross contamination can still mess with people. CEntrum seems to be good, although they are expensive 2. Is Centrum gluten-free...

    Hi THere I am wondering the same thing. NEw Celiac here and been taking them and still not feeling 100% but only on diet for three weeks so not sure if vitamins are issue yet or not?

    I don't consider it a reaction because I have given up both lactose and gluten for a month at a time and still bloated everysingle day and when I drink milk or eat icecream, nothing new happens I was already bloated. I will give it up again now that I am strictly gluten-free now.

    Hi I was wondering if anyone has had any issues eating SnapeaCrisps from CALBEE?
  10. pufffee
    Thank you, this helps! I am gonna look into cutting as much of lactose out of diet as possible. I do have handle though on what has gluten and what does not but need to focus a bit on lactose more I guess
  11. pufffee
    Thank you! I hope it does get better it is a dumb problem to have lol

    I have been eating yogurt. Yoplait gluten-free yogurt for the first time in my life so that is my only probiotic I take. I have taken then in the past as well with no luck. Maybe try again? Rice Works chips bother my stomach alot so no more of those. But other then that not much really bothers me. I am just constantly bloated

    Hi I got officially diagnosed two weeks ago. Second Endo and all positive blood work. My mother has it as well. I have been doing great on diet and have a lot of help from this site and of course my mother. I have gurgling noises and what seems to be stomach acid issues but never get heartburn ever. I was given Bentyl and only take one pill three times...

    Thanks, I have seen this and other links but wondering if things or production get better with diet?

    Hi Newly officially diagnosed. My wife is very concerned that I may have low sperm count and I am wondering if damage from disease caused this and or will I have better count now that I am on the diet? Or it could be unrelated all together. Just wondering if their is a relationship between the celiac and sperm count. I appreciate feedback!
