Gallbladder Problems After Going Gluten-free?

Hello all,

For the past month or so, I've been having recurring symptoms (nausea, fullness, cramps, etc.) with nearly every meal/snack, and the area below my ribs constantly aches. I've also had 2 "attacks" in the past 2 weeks that have left me lying on the floor, in pain, at the verge of vomiting, with chills and shortness of breath. The doctor thinks it's my gallbladder, and I'm having an ultrasound done on Tuesday.

I'm inclined to agree that my symptoms point to gallbladder problems. I will have a better idea of what's going on in a few days.

I have read many posts about people having gallbladder problems BEFORE being diagnosed celiac/before going gluten-free. I have been gluten-free since December, and have only had these new symptoms for the past month. Is there anyone out there who has had gallbladder issues AFTER going gluten-free? Are the two related? What are your experiences?

I would have to think that maybe you've always had gallbladder issues. Maybe you are just now getting symptoms. I had my gallbladder removed when I was 17. (I'm now 29.) The doctor said I had it for years just didn't know it.

      Second child with Celia

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      After my 3 year old daughter's diagnosis, we all got tested. My 5 year old son also came back positive with number 12x the upper limit.  We will confirm with another tTG and the other 2 tests in the panel.  He has zero symptoms that I have noticed. Maybe occasionally vomiting. He does have asthma. He's kind of an a**hole sometimes but also he's 5. He has SO much energy. Like miles and miles of biking, running, gymnastics. Never stops. Eats great, normal growth. It was comparing my daughter to him that made me push to figure out what was wrong with her!  Is it possible for a tTG test to just be totally wrong?

      European travel with Celiac Disease

      By CJF · Posted

      I'm heading to the UK for a vacation the end of this month on a tour with Road Scholar. I haven't been out of the US since my diagnosis so I'm a little concerned about exposure to gluten during my travels. Most of our meals are provided by the tour. Either the hotels we are staying at, or places we will visit. Road Scholar is aware of my dietary needs as well. Any helpful hints about navigating the restaurants in England is greatly appreciated. Also are there any medications out there to help mitigate the effects of exposure to gluten? Thanks in advance.
