Hello Eveyone,

I am a bit new to this but here it goes. :)

I have Hashimotos (which is a thyroid condition) already and now have been diagnosed with Gluten Intolerance. From what I have been told this pretty much goes hand in hand

I have not been feeling that well, and was wondering if any of you have felt this way.

As soon as I eat my stomach starts to gurgle and then I pretty much have to go to the bathroom right away. After I go to the bathroom I feel pretty ill, my stomach gets bloated and I can't really go anywhere just in case I have to go to the bathroom right away. Most of the time I feel sick the rest of the day.

Is this the way you feel after eating gluten? Or could it be that I am allergic to MSG as well?

Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

:unsure:

I could be gluten, or it could be intestinal problems, or something else. I take special enzymes and manuka honey and mastic gum and it's made a world of difference.

Welcome to the group!

I also have Hashimoto's and gluten intolerance. After a couple of months on the gluten-free diet I figured out that I'm also intolerant to corn (and possibly dairy... I'm going to give that another try after I'm done breastfeeding my casein-intolerant son). I had problems with constipation, gas, and bloating for YEARS. It made me look like I was about four months pregnant <_< Sometimes I had bouts of diarrhea (depending on what time of the month), but mostly constipation.

The best way to heal is to eat a really natural diet... meat, vegetables, a little fruit, nuts, avocados, etc... gluten-free "goodies" (cookies, doughnuts, brownies) can help you make the transition, but even the non-gluten grains are difficult for a lot of people to digest. MSG (and other chemicals like nitrates, aspartame, high fructose corn syrup, etc...) are basically poisons disguised as food :ph34r:

I often didn't even make it the end of my meal before I had to go. Did they do a celiac panel on you or a biopsy? What were the results if they did?

It can take a while to get the hang of the gluten free lifestyle and all that goes with it. How long have you been gluten free?

I was diagnosed about a year ago through saliva and blood testing.

I think I am starting to figure this out. I believe its the combo of the MSG and the Gluten that is just killing me. I also feel bloated did you feel bloated when you were eating gluten?

Hi,

I was wondering if you could tell me where you can buy the Manuka Honey and the Mastic Gum.

Thanks, :)

Sorry this won't be much help <_<

I make up a lot of my own recipes. My husband is from the Ivory Coast (West Africa) and he taught me how to make a basic "sauce" a long time ago. I also make stir-fried vegetables, soup, omelets, roasted meat and potatoes (delicious with sweet potatoes), coconut milk smoothies... I've picked up a lot of basic techniques over the last ten years! Baking is a different story... I haven't done much lately. A lot of the gluten-free recipes use dairy and/or corn, so they haven't been much use to me.

Salad dressings are a problem for me because of the dairy and corn derivatives. If I want dressing this summer I'll make a simple vinaigrette on my own. :P

My Hashimoto's symptoms are definitely better on the gluten-free diet, especially since I've become really, really strict about processed foods and cross-contamination. I'm not constipated, my skin is not so dry, I'm definitely not depressed (which is GREAT)... but I'm still having some problems with low blood pressure and irregular periods. It's tricky to sort things out when you have more than one autoimmune disorder. The important thing is that I seem to be going in the right direction :)

You did help. I love stir-fry :lol:

My problem is also the MSG is killing me cause everything I eat goes through me. Is that the gluten intolerance or its probably MSG. I have a lot of research to do. I have to go very strict diet as well.

Thanks for your help

So it's not normal! I often feel like food is "passing straight through me" as soon as I'm done eating, and get stomach upset and cramps. If I don't get diharrea, I feel like I'm going to, and it often takes a good dose of ginger (my best friend) to make me feel better. It's not always after i've eaten gluten, but food with too much garlic or onions, possible msg or preservatives, and god knows what else does a real number on me. These problems have been increasing (or becoming more apparent) over the past few years and I'm seriously doubting my negative blood test.

the best thing for me currently is to avoid msg and chemical preservatives, raw garlic and onions, and anything too spicy, as they seem to cause more problems than simply eating gluten. what do you think?

      @PlanetJanet, Sorry to hear about your back pain.  I have three crushed vertebrae myself.  I found that a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamin and Pyridoxine (all water soluble B vitamins) work effectively for my back pain.  This combination really works without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain meds.  I hope you will give them a try. Here are articles on these vitamins and pain relief... Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ And... Role of B vitamins, thiamine, pyridoxine, and cyanocobalamin in back pain and other musculoskeletal conditions: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33865694/

      Here is the info from their website. If you don't trust them, you may find products that are labelled "gluten-free," but I don't see any reason to believe there is any gluten in them.

      Hi, trents, Thanks for responding! One book I read is called, Doing Harm, by Maya Dusenbery.  She has wonderful perspective and insight, and it's all research-based.  It's about how women can't get treated.  Everyone should read this!  I wouldn't mind reading it again, even.  She believes that women are so busy taking care of families, working, etc., that we are more likely to ignore our pain and symptoms for longer.  Men have women bugging them to go to the doctor.  Women don't have anyone telling us that.  We don't have time to go.  Providers think we are over-emotional, histrionic, depressed, have low tolerance to pain...Men get prescribed opioids for the same symptoms women are prescribed anti-depressants.  My car crash in January 2020 made going to the doctor a full-time job.  I grew up with 2 rough and tumble brothers, played outside, climbed trees.  I was tough and strong, pain didn't bother me, I knew it would heal.  But do you think I could get treated for back pain--as a woman?  I am so familiar now with the brush-offs, the blank looks, the, "Take your Ibuprofen," the insinuation that I am just over-reacting, trying to get attention, or even, "Drug Seeking."  Took almost 2 years, but what was happening was Degenerative Sacroiliitis.  I couldn't walk right, my gait was off, effected my entire spine because gait was off.  I had braced myself with my legs in a front-impact, slightly head-on crash with someone who made a left turn in front of me from the opposite direction.  I finally had SI Joint Fusion surgery, both sides.  It's not a cure. I have given up on trying to get properly treated.  There is so much pain with these spine issues caused by bad gait:  scoliosis, lithesis, arthropathy, bulged disc, Tarlov cysts.  And I can't take anything because of my bad tummy. Not that I would ever hurt anyone, but I can relate to Luis Mangione who couldn't get treated for his back injury. I feel so alone.

      They say maltodextrin is gluten-free, even if it's made from wheat, because the gluten is processed away.  It makes no difference to my body.  I still get uncontrollable flatulence and leakage.  Happens every time, even if I refuse to believe it will happen.  Once I was taking Gas-X chewables to hang around with people I was visiting and staying with, to make sure I would feel safer and more comfortable.  WRONG.  I forgot to read the label. I didn't realize it till after I left and went home--MALTODEXTRIN.  I was miserable the whole time. The second gastroenterologist I saw made the tentative diagnosis of microscopic colitis.  Usually occurs in women over 60, I was 59, had been in a crash, (2020) was taking alot of NSAIDS, muscle relaxants.  Had constant diarrhea, gas, leaking.  Unbearable, and I didn't know it was NSAIDS.  I was scheduled for two-way endoscopy, mouth to butt, but they wanted $2,000 up front.  Finally, had a colonoscopy in 2022, 10 biopsies, didn't find a thing!  MC can go into remission, which I was, of course, desperate to do.  No more NSAIDS, tried to cut down on all the other pain killers, everything, chemicals that I knew triggered me.  So, no, they didn't find anything.  So sad that we have to make ourselves sicker and more injured to get a proper diagnosis! Microscopic colitis is being seen concurrently with gluten problems.  MC can be triggered by NSAIDS, SSRI's, all kinds of things. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17227-microscopic-colitis Some links for maltodextrin health effects: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6409436/#:~:text=Altogether%2C these findings show that,the development of intestinal inflammation. https://www.mdedge.com/internalmedicine/article/193956/gastroenterology/maltodextrin-may-increase-colitis-risk

      Titanium dioxide is that chemical in vitamins, toothpaste, and processed white foods that is the whitener for the pill coloring.  It is inflammatory for me.  I have an intestinal reaction to it, every time. https://www.webmd.com/diet/titanium-dioxide-in-food https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11295244/#:~:text=EFSA concluded that titanium dioxide,uncertainties in recent toxicological studies.
