Pain After Endescope


Amber M

Recommended Posts

Amber M Explorer

I had the endescope with biopsy on last Wens. On Thursday evening I had the worst ocular and head migraine with severe visual disturbances. Then last night, my lower right abdomen was in pain and burning inside. Now I have upper right intestine pain and burning with alot of noise. My stool shows no blood that I can see and I have no fever or vomiting. Does this sound normal to anyone?

If your pain is getting worse and not decreasing you may want to contact your doctor. If you call his office they will be able to contact him or his on call person. You shouldn't be having increasing pain although some discomfort is not unusual. Did they send you home with a new med you haven't had before? If so did you check if it was gluten free? If they haven't diagnosed you yet they may not have been concerned about gluten in any oral med they gave. This would include any oral prep like valium or the numbing spray for the back of your throat. IV meds are gluten free as are inhaled sedatives. If you decide you are not in enough pain to contact the doctor be sure to let him know what happened after the procedure. The headache could have been a reaction to the sedative they used and they should be told.

      Hello, @StrongerThanCeliac, Not insane.  Misdirected, maybe. The digestive enzymes in saliva and the bacteria in the mouth probably digest all the gluten before then.   More likely, it takes that long for your histamine level to come down.  Histamine is released by mast cells as part of the reaction to gluten.  Vitamin C, B12, and Thiamine (Benfotiamine) are good antioxidants which can help lower the inflammation.   When I get glutened, I like having  hot tea with a couple of whole cloves in it.  Cloves contain Eugenol, an anti-inflammatory oil, that can calm the immune response.  You can chew up and swallow the cloves which will have some antibacterial action in your mouth, and be calming to the digestive tract.   Hope you feel better soon!

      Flavorings usually identified but don't know if there are laws that govern that. I bot lamb shanks that had rosemary flavor but did not see anything else that might be a grain so I ate it. I eat tons ground beef usually organic and grass fed from aldi. Not identified as gluten-free but hopefully it is. On the other hand I would only eat hot dogs which has several ingredients if identified gluten-free.

      All liquor that has been distilled are gluten-free because the liquor is captured from evaporation. Gluten is a heavy protein that will not evaporate make it safe for all celiac’s. cheers!

      Ground meats can contain flavorings and fillers. You must look for the gluten-free symbol on the packaging. I use Jennie-O brands which are marked gluten-free.

      I take Clonidine for blood pressure control.  It is the only one that did not debiltate me.  It also helps with my ADD.  Doctors always turned me down when I requested Ritalin (I am an adult) so it turned out for the best that I reacted badly to all the different BP meds they tried. Originally Clonidine was developed for ADHD adolescents that could not tolerate Ritalin.
