  I am pooping out sharp little stones 2 to 3mm when I take a photo and blow it up they have the pattern of peach pits. It's the strangest thing. I did a celiac screening and was negative.

Welcome to the forum!

Do you have anemia or Diabetes? Thiamine and magnesium deficiencies can cause constipation. 

Are you keeping a food mood poo'd journal?  Do you know which food is causing the peach pit problem?  

Have you been checked for H. Pylori infection?

I did get tested for the h pylori. They are actually tiny sharp stones but when you blow up the photo they have a pattern to them.  I'm so puzzled

Was the H. Pylori test negative?

Have you been tested for intestinal parasites?

Do you have constipation?  Is this with every bowel movement?

What have you been eating?  Are you eating gluten?

Yes the test for pylori was negative. I've gained weight, my vitamins are normal I have energy and seem healthy but I use the restroom very frequently with floaty mushy stool. Doctor said ibs but that's so vague.

@augustmoon,

No worries, we talk about poop a lot here.  

Are you currently eating gluten?  Or have you gone gluten free?

Do you eat a lot of carbohydrates?

Were you eating lots of gluten prior to your Celiac test? 

What symptoms made you get a Celiac test?

Constant pooping it's become a burden and it itches. Their is mucous. It's just such an ordeal. Is their anyway to send a photo of the stones? They are just so bizzar

Not sure if it’ll work as I’ve never had stones but lots of blood and mucus. I’ve found that kefir helps, I’m pretty dependent on it. I’ve recommended it to lots of people with gut problems of all sorts and it seems to help most of them.

I’d collect some of the stones and see if you can get them lab tested.

OK I feel silly but I figured it out they were raspberry seeds I looked at photos of close up seeds and they had that neat pattern so no stones, but I do have digestive issues. I'll try the  kefir. Thanks for the advise.

Update......raspberry and blackberry seeds lol. But I found out I had SIBO. I just cured a 7 year long problem with Berberine. No more serious issues.

      Safe and Forbidden lists

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Miso can be gluten-free, but it depends on the ingredients and how it's made. Miso is a fermented paste made primarily from soybeans, salt, and koji (a mold used for fermentation). Some varieties also include grains such as rice, barley, or wheat. Rice-based miso is typically gluten-free. Barley or wheat-based miso contains gluten and is not safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Even if miso doesn’t list gluten-containing grains, cross-contamination is possible during processing. Look for a certified gluten-free label to ensure safety. Check the ingredient list and packaging for terms like: "Barley" or "wheat" (contains gluten) or "Certified gluten-free" (safe for celiacs). Brands like Miso Master Organic offer certified gluten-free miso varieties, making it easier to find a safe option. If you’re unsure, opt for miso labeled as gluten-free and confirm with the manufacturer if needed. Always double-check ingredients to avoid any accidental gluten exposure. We have it on our forbidden list because in many cases it can be difficult to know for sure whether it's gluten-free. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping.

      Help with tests

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you’re navigating a lot of testing and trying to make sense of your results. While I’m not a medical professional, I can share some insights that might help. A calprotectin level of 2500 is quite high and typically indicates significant inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. This could be due to a variety of conditions, including celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease (like Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis), or other causes of gut inflammation. The celiac testing results will be important to help rule in or out celiac disease as a cause. Your kidney-related results (stage 3a CKD and GFR readings) are worth discussing further with your doctor. While these levels indicate reduced kidney function, they don’t necessarily mean immediate issues, but they should be monitored closely, especially if there’s ongoing inflammation or another underlying condition contributing to it. As for the milk allergy testing, it’s good to have that information, as dairy can sometimes contribute to symptoms in people with celiac or other gut issues. While waiting for the celiac test results, it might be helpful to keep track of any symptoms you’re experiencing, especially related to diet, and share those with your healthcare team. It’s also worth asking your doctor about follow-ups for the kidney results to ensure you're addressing any potential contributors to inflammation or kidney function. I hope you get clarity soon from your test results. It’s great that you’re being proactive about your health, and you’re definitely not alone in this journey. Take care and keep us posted on how things go!

      Eye irritation 2.5 months into gluten free diet

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      There is no way to know for sure when an autoimmune disease might be triggered in someone, and this is just a theory that you might want to bring up with your doctor if your dry eye issues are prolonged. Of course you may not have Sjogren's, but it might be worth checking into if your issues are ongoing.

      Would Sjogren’s only show up 1-2months after going gluten free? 😭😭😭😭

      Great advice, as having one autoimmune disease makes you more vulnerable to getting others.
