Symptoms Returning

I was doing really well for several weeks. I finished my antiparasite meds and have been taking 200 bill probiotics daily ever since. i was down in Florida visiting family a few weeks ago and was eating everything and feeling fine...now my indigestion is back and i cant eat large meals again so of course im dropping weight. Any thoughts on what could be causing this? i still need to get rechecked for parasites, but with all the probiotics im taking i doubt anything is still alive. My lower GI has still been fairly normal...no bloating and regular- its just my upper GI that is the problem. i have this uncomfortable heaviness after i eat (especially protein). I may have gotten hit with some gluten cc last Friday...ate at a place that had gluten free dishes but not sure of the ingredients were completely gluten-free. So not sure if this is just a flare up or what but its driving me crazy cause i really was feeling better.

I am actually moving so im curious to see if living in a new place will have a positive effect on my symptoms...maybe theres something going on where i live that is causing the constant exposure to parasites?

You may have developed conjestion in your gall system which has increased lately and is causing symptoms. This is a common problems with celiacs. Many of us do prorgrams which include gall bladder flushes, Curezone has a good forum on this - Liver Flush Support Forum.

As I learned recently candida is very hard to control and intestinal problems common. When I was working to improve my digestion I didn't consider candida as part of the gas/bloating problem but recently a ND gave me some candida herbs to which I added Neem Leaf Capsules and I'm much better and can eat more foods without becoming bloated and gassy. I have been able to stop taking digestive enzymes but still take probiotics in the form of goat's milk yogurt. Yesterday I was able to eat some gluten-free all purpose flour for the first time in years.

Looking for answers Contributor

Have you ever been tested for h-pylori infection? I was tested via blood once, which came back negative. I tested positive with a stool test. Look up the symptoms and see if they match up.

BTW, I get that fullness from small meals too at times. Mine is caused by gastritis, which may or may not be from the h-pylori...can't get a straight answer on it!

      Some people react to the Casein in dairy the same as to gluten, like me.  I avoid dairy avidly because I get ataxia so bad. Some Celiac people produce tTg 6 antibodies in response to gluten or casein.  tTg 2 antibodies are what blood tests for Celiac measure.  tTg 6 antibodies are also found in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, contributing to ataxia.  Have you been checked for tTg 6 antibodies?

      I agree that you were not eating sufficient gluten prior to your endoscopy.

      What supplement do you use and how much?

      Hi Knitty Kitty,  Thanks for sending all of these articles.  Some of them are too complex for me to parse.  That said, I had extensive blood tests done when the ataxia started.  I was a little low on Vit. D.  My doc thought I might be low on Vit. K.  But no.  K levels were completely normal as were all of my B Vits. levels.  I take a D supplement but even with that, if I have lactose, I start to feel my head get inflamed.  It is what it is.

      @Soleihey, Do get checked for thiamine deficiency.  Blood tests for thiamine deficiency are not accurate.  You can have "normal" levels in the blood, but still be deficient because thiamine stores inside cells are depleted.  Thiamine deficiency can cause ataxia, tremor, muscle twitching, leg weakness, constipation, and slurred speech.  I had these symptoms and more that did not resolve with a one a day type vitamin.  I needed high doses of Thiamine to correct the deficiency.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Pregnancy can deplete thiamine stores.   Interesting Reading: Thiamine deficiency disorders: a clinical perspective https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/
