anyone here experience ONLY digestive problems?

As far as I know, this has been my only problem...the Big D. If I have other problems, I'm not yet aware of them.

This is the one-month mark for me being gluten-free. I had my EGD/biopsy on April 9 and have yet to have my follow-up appt. with my GI doc (appt. on May 20 as he's been out of town on a family emergency so my appt. had to be rescheduled).

Yep, that's my major symptom. Gas that can clear a house, severe BM issues including diarrhea and an inability to hold it, constant stomach pain and noises, etc. I think I also get a little brain fog, but I can't prove that yet. Usually I'm so distracted by the other issues, I don't notice!

I experience digestive problems (cramping, bloating, gas, either constipation or diarrhea) for gluten intolerance, 5 of my other allergies and the gut infections (bacteria, parasites and fungus) I experienced over the past 6 years. Only my cane sugar and casein allergy causes non-digestive reactions. I get 48 hours of tachycardia after ingesting a tiny amount of cane sugar (like one tylenol caplet which contained cane sugar). However, casein causes sinus congestion as well as waves of cramping pain and constipation.

I only have bloating. Nothing else (well possibly some fatigue, but it might just be laziness) No Big D... thank God.

Most of the symptoms I have seem to be related to digestive problems as long as I am gluten free. When glutened I develop mild but itchy DH, nerve pain, joint pain, swelling joints and other autoimmune symptoms. I have read that relatives of Celiacs have some digestive symptoms tho the blood tests for celiac disease are negative.

      Popcorn pain

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @JenFur! You must be relatively new to the celiac journey. I wish it were as simple as just having to cut out gluten and all our gut issues magically disappear. It is very common for those with celiac disease to develop intolerance/sensitivity to other foods. Often it is because the protein structure of some other foods resembles that of gluten. Sometimes it is because damage the damage done to the gut lining by celiac disease wipes out cells that produce enzymes needed to break down those foods. Sometimes it is because the "leaky gut syndrome" associated with celiac disease causes the immune system to incorrectly identify other food proteins as threats or invaders. The two most common non-gluten foods that cause trouble for a lot of celiacs are dairy and oats. But soy, eggs and corn are also on that list. Sometimes these non-gluten food intolerances disappear with time and the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel.

      Popcorn pain

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Long term recovery

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By marinke · Posted

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?
