Growling Stomach After Every Meal...

I had had an upset stomach, abdominal pain and bloating so severe until I began the digestive enzymes.

My question is, if I've been gluten free for years, and I didn't have abdominal pain before diagnosed, why would this just start now?

When first diagnosed I was very anemic. Elevated liver enzymes which go up and down, depressed, anxious, and fatigued.

Then I went gluten free, lost weight and felt wonderful for years (while on iron).

Then just a few weeks ago, this horrible bloating cramping and growling after meals started when I went on a cheese puff binge.

The cheese puffs seemed to be gluten free, but it was the lays brand.

Could this be the cause of this starting all of this when I never had this type of thing before?

I do not want to go to the doctors. I don't have insurance and it has never helped me. All they said was that I had flat villi, inflammed intestines, and elevated liver enzymes. I avoided gluten and then felt much healthier overall.

I am freaking out. I have IBS symptoms that are getting better with digestive enzymes, but why in the heck would this start now?

Please help!

My best guess would be the cheese puffs. There are many here who don't touch Lay's products because of the strong risk of CC. Eating Lay's is like playing roulette, at least for me.

Stomach growling is one of the first indications that I have been glutened.

I react to Lay's products and I hate it becuase I love a good salty potato chip. I have read that the cheese puffs/ curls are chemicals, so probably not vey good for us anyway. I am awfully glad that old fashioned popped popcorn likes me! I replace the popcorn for chips when I am hungry for chips.

For those that like cheese puffs Pirate's Booty makes some really good ones. A much safer alternative to Lays and no funny chemicals incuded.

      High Folate Levels

      By Tyoung · Posted

      I was diagnosed in November with celiacs and at the time had been tested for multiple vitamin deficiencies. During that time my folate level was 4ng/mL, Although I was told to take supplements, I ended up only taking them for a week or so as they made my stomach upset. I had my blood work redone yesterday and as the results came in I noticed that most of my levels are now normal, but folate level is >24ng/mL. Has anyone else had similar results? If so were you able to figure out why or how to normalize them? I also have been having constant acid reflux since about two weeks into going gluten free (no acid reflux history prior to) that we are trying to get to the bottom of with no answers. Could that be related? Thank you!! Also wanted to not that I am not eating any gluten free processed food.

      Do I have celiac/Gluten sensitivity?

      By JohannesW85 · Posted

      Did you take a look at my pics that I uploaded?    These rashes is not itchy, but I have seen that people have this too that have celiac and it’s not itchy for them either. I have also heard that sulfur burps are a common things with celiac too.  Yes it can be something else too but it’s to much symptoms that I have that match with either gluten sensitivity or celiac.   Hopefully it’s just gluten intolerance and not celiac.  As I said before I have the gen type for celiac and diabetes typ 1 and the those diseases going hand in hand.    Thanks again Trent for your time to reply, and I wonder if any body else have kind of the same symptoms that I have?

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Welcome Connie Smitj,  Did you have a follow up test to see if the treatment for H Pylori was successful?  It's possible to catch it again, especially from a partner.  When I contracted it a second time my wife was tested and was positive for two of the bacteria in H Pylori.

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Connie Smitj! Can you give us a little more history about your celiac journey? How long ago were you diagnosed and how long have your been gluten free? Do you have other symptoms besides quick onset of hunger after eating and gut pain? How long have these symptoms being happening?

      By Connie Smitj · Posted

      I eat a gluten-free diet but hunger pains start within an hour of eating dinner. I  had h pylori infection before I was diagnosed. Occasionally I’ll have bouts of pain. Could it come back or is it just celiac disease?
