Does This Sound Like A Reaction?

my son has been having stomach issues for 6+ months. i took him off gluten 6 days ago(Thursday) when pulling diary didn't change anything. 2 days later we went to a birthday party and he got into the mini cupcakes and ate a few. he also had quite a few chocolate candies, kisses and peanut butter cups. with in an hour or so he started bending over from pain in his stomach and back. his stomach was super bloated. we gave him some zantac and went home. in the middle of the night he woke me up and burped in my face. it was an awful sulfur burp and diarrhea soon followed. the next day was just foul sulfur gas. after that he was back to normal but said he belly hurt a little yesterday.

does that sound pretty typical for gluten reaction? i wondered if it was the chocolates. his GI thinks he has celiac disease based on his history but i got his blood work results this morning and everything was normal. we're going to pursue an endoscopy to confirm.

To the best of my knowledge, if you have burps and farts that smell like sulfur, it is likely that you have an H.Pylori infection. Usually accompanied by nausea, bloating, fatigue, diarrhea. Antacids usually help for a couple of hours, but it comes back. Symptoms usually worsen at night.

he had a full panel stool testing a few weeks ago. no parasites or infection, everything came back normal. he hasn't had any more issues since Sunday evening when the gas finally passed. i need to have him eat some gluten foods for the endoscopy so i guess we'll see if it happens again.

anyone else ever have this happened from gluten?

My son and I both get bloated stomachs and burping from gluten. I'm not sure whether the burps smell like sulphur or not. Poor little guy. I hope you get things figured out.

      Poo changes after 2 weeks

      By sh00148 · Posted

      Thank you. That’s all really helpful. I think it must have been something she ate as the poo colour has settled now.    Starting to see improvements in her tummy, slowly but surely!

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.

      The positive DGP-IGA indicates the possibility of celiac disease. It is typical for someone who does have celiac disease to have some antibody tests be negative and others positive. This is not unique to celiac disease diagnosis. It is why doctors typically run many tests when seeking diagnosis of a suspected disease.  The DGP-IgA test is considered to have high sensitivity and specificity. In general, the DGP-IgA test has been reported to have a sensitivity ranging from 75% to 95% and a specificity ranging from 90% to 100%. Overall, the DGP tests, including DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG, exhibit a sensitivity of approximately 85-95% and a specificity of about 95-98%. The above paragraph is taken from this article which gives an overview of the various tests that can be run for celiac disease and their reliability: What symptoms are you experiencing?

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, get serum antibody testing done for celiac disease. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both.
