Can You Look At My Symptoms

- bloating

- constipation since toddlerhood

- hives only on calves, and front and back of thighs

ever since i can remember i can never go to the bathroom. TMI maybe, lol.

i have a bowel movement about every week, week and a half. now i have a history of colon-rectal cancer in the family and would truly like to get to the bottom of my issues so that i can live a long, healthy life. i also recently was pregnant and all symptoms went away while pregnant; felt great once i got past the first trimester. no hives, regular bowel movements, etc.

i had skin testing done and that showed nothing except for fruit issues. (which i love eating and have never had issues with). had an endoscopy done and they said no evidence of celiac. had blood work done (igg, iga?) and that was all negative.

GI said i had ibs - now i know it could be something else because WHY do i get hives all the time after eating certain foods? i KEEP a food diary and it could be anything really - wheat or dairy.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

      gluten-free and continued upper left side pain after drinking wine

      The short answer is if it hurts, don't do it. Yogurt may help sooth your gut and repopulate it with benificial bacteria.  I prefer whole milk yogurt because it is not processed and the no fat yogurt is processed dehydrated milk powder with guar gums and water added to make it mouth feel like fat.  Especially in early healing there may be other foods you cannot tolerate for a while.

      I guess I would encourage you to abstain from the wine for a while. If you know something causes you pain then it is a good idea not to do it if you don't have to.

      We have had numbers of others on this forum report pain in that same area. Have you been checked for an H. Pylori infection? This is something very common in the celiac population.

      Hi! Yes I have, endoscopy didn’t show anything other than celiacs. I’ve been wondering if it’s possibly that my intestines are so damaged that the wine is irritating because they have not fully healed. Very odd, I felt better for a few weeks and then all the sudden started noticing the pain again after the weekends when I drink wine (don’t drink during the week). I’ve also heard that dull left side pain isn’t a common symptom with celiacs so my diagnosis was surprising to doctor as well though the pain did initially subside with gluten-free diet.
