ARCHIVED Intense Stomach Ache Happening Right Now
ratty89 replied to ratty89's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Well Ive only been gluten-free for 4 months but if I eat something bad its usually tiredness, bloating, different kind of pain. Ive had this kind of pain in the past before I went gluten-free....doctors didnt know what it was though. -
ARCHIVED Intense Stomach Ache Happening Right Now
ratty89 posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
So I made myself some gluten free baking which Ive had before, had eggs for lunch then some fresh from the oven baking. 5 minutes later I felt the urgency for a bowel movement.

ratty89 posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Since being diagnosed, after reading alot of information about Celiacs I noticed some family members (mainly my mother, her sister, her brother, and my brother) having alot of symptoms/signs of celiacs.

ratty89 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hey, kind of new around here but love the discussion and stories everyone tells. I thought Id chime in with something that was different that happened to me and was wondering if it had happened to anyone else and what they thought the cause was. I have been gluten free and dairy free for about two months which has been going great. Tummys feeling pretty...
