Do anyone have burping as their main symptom?

I had major air in my tummy when my symptoms went haywire last year. Usually lots of burping right after I ate to try to relieve the bloating. I havent experienced it since going gluten free.

I miss Kit Kats too.

My friends thought I was incredibly unladylike because I could belch better than their husbands...I still can but it's less frequent now.

That was one of my most annoying symptoms because when I burped my throat would burn and I'd get a horrible taste in my mouth like rotten eggs. Found out it was acid reflux. Haven't had it since going gluten-free except when I ate hard boiled eggs, oddly enough. I don't eat those anymore!

I have read that reflux problems are common in Celiacs and recently read an article where a Dr actually referred to celiac disease as a reflux disease. Some Drs may tell you that you have swallowed air and are burping it back out, especially if you are a smoker. But it is more likely since you are burping bad smalling gas after eating eggs that you have some bacteria in your stomach or upper small intestine which are growing on the egg protein and producing the gas. This area is normally sterile as strong stomach acids kill almost all bacteria eaten and the bile also kills microorganisms. There are some lab tests for this, ask your Dr. There are also some alternative or natural ways to improve your digestive tract if the gluten free diet doesn't help.

I still have pretty constant bloating. No rotten eggs, bad taste, acid reflux, but just huge amounts of gas. I got cc'd yesterday and the production increased considerably :P I tested clear for parasites and SIBO, candida, etc. Of course some foods are worse than others but it never goes away. Lectin foods are the worst. :(

I have been seeing a naturopathic doctor and she has me on 2 kinds of digestive enzymes, phyofudge (for yeast and parasite), GI revive, and a probiotic. I don't test positive for celiac but my markers show a gluten intolerance (according to NP but GI Dr. says opposite). It seems that if I eat dairy or gluten I will burp for hours or days..even if it is a small trace of contamination..It is awful. Sometimes smells like eggs but most times has no smell...It seems like most with a gluten allergy have diarrhea but I haven't had that issue at all just the burping and headache.

      Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?

      By robingfellow · Posted

      My gallbladder was at 94% ejection fraction according to my HIDA scan before surgery, when the "normal" range is considered to be between 30-80%, so the surgeon recommended removal because I had been experiencing severe chronic upper quadrant pain and even vomiting despite having a strong stomach. A biopsy after surgery showed intense inflammation suggesting my gallbladder was on the verge of bursting if I hadn't gotten it removed.   The last time my iron and vitamin d levels were checked post-gluten free diet they were in a normal range (I take 60mg iron tablets every other day, and vitamin D capsules daily) I do also take magnesium daily, specifically 400mg magnesium bisglycinate at night to aid my sleep since I try to avoid taking melatonin due to personal preference.   I'll definitely have to keep in mind the point about celiac possibly causing gallbladder problems, I'll probably wait until I can see a proper GI and get their input before I attempt to reintroduce gluten back into my diet that way any reaction I may or may not have can be properly assessed.

      Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?

      By Mr-Collateral531 · Posted

      I have dealt with gallbladder issues on-and-off for about ten years now. I was diagnosed with biliary dyskinesia in 2016 but chose to keep my gallbladder. Then in July 2022, I was diagnosed with celiac disease. Your surgeon is partially right in that your gallbladder can definitely cause some of those issues. However, the flip side to the coin is celiac can cause issues with your gallbladder. It’s a lesser studied area of disease manifestation, but limited research has shown a correlation between celiac, gallbladder dismotility, and how a gluten-free diet can help increase the gallbladder ejection fraction. Which literally happened in my case. In 2016 my HIDA scan measured my gallbladder ejection fraction as 29%. Then in 2023 after going strict gluten free, my HIDA scan measured it as 100%. It’s not perfect. I get right upper quadrant pain from time to time still. But at least I got that piece of evidence for myself.  I haven’t found any empirical studies on it but I have a theory. The gallbladder stores your bile for digestion. When the food enters your small intestine, the cells of your duodenum secrete cholecystokinin (CCK). CCK is what tells your gallbladder to empty. It’s literally Greek for “bile sac move.” Since the duodenum is a prime location for epithelial cell damage in celiac, it seems very possible that this can alter production of digestive hormones like CCK. As the small intestine begins to heal it produces more CCK and therefore the gallbladder can once again function. If you care to share, why did you need to have yours removed? In regards to the low iron and low vitamin D despite supplementation, that is also common in celiac. I fought vitamin D deficiency for almost a year despite taking 5000 IUs a day. I don’t have anemia, but I know I can use more iron based on my last round of blood work. Best I can say is you need to right cofactors as well. My vitamin D level virtually stayed the same for three different blood tests all 12 weeks apart. One was even after taking the prescription vitamin D of 50,000 IUs once a week. Once again, something not all doctors seem to know, but a nutrient deficiency isn’t necessarily treated by just taking more of that nutrient. Vitamin D metabolism requires many cofactors and processes in the small intestine, liver, and kidneys. And iron metabolism requires many cofactors as well including vitamin D. The biggest thing is to find a supplement regiment that works for you. Do you take specific vitamins or do you take a multivitamin? How much iron is in the supplement you take? What type of iron is it? Do you take magnesium? Another big game changer for me was adding 450mg/day of magnesium supplements for about two months and then dropping to 200mg/day. I would take 250mg of magnesium aspartate at lunch time and then 200mg of magnesium glycinate around 7:00pm. Magnesium is a huge cofactor for both vit D and iron metabolism. And that’s just one. Zinc, copper, vitamin K, boron, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin C are all contributing cofactors to vitamin D and iron metabolism. But too much supplementing is also dangerous. I’ve also been through iron overload and zinc toxicity in my post-celiac journey. Once again, doctors just saying to do one thing without considering anything else. I hope this helps and if you have any more questions don’t hesitate to ask.

      Certified gluten free oats

      By trents · Posted

      Your doctor may or may not be well-informed about the issue you raise so I would not agree that he/she would necessarily be the best person to rely on for a good answer. The question actually raises two issues.  The first issue has to do with cross contamination and individual sensitivity as dublin55 alluded to. Oats and wheat are both cereal grains that are typically grown in the same areas, transported in the same trucks, stored in the same silos and processed on the same equipment. So, there is usually significant CC (Cross Contamination). With gluten free oats, there is some effort to separate these processes that would otherwise cause significant CC and "gluten free" oats should meet the FDA requirement of not exceeding 20 ppm of gluten. But this 22 ppm standard is not strict enough for more sensitive celiacs. "Certified gluten free" oats (and other food products are held to a stricter standard, that being not exceeding 10 ppm. But even that is too much gluten for some super sensitive celiacs and will cause a reaction. The second issue with oats has nothing to do with gluten per se but with the protein found in oats called "avenin". Avenin has a structure similar enough to gluten to cause a reaction in some celiacs. This is called "cross reaction" not to be confused with "cross contamination" discussed in the previous paragraph. So, for whatever reason, whether cross contamination or cross reaction, it is estimated that about 10% of celiacs react to oats.

      Getting rid of the belly bloat

      By dublin555 · Posted

      Karen, that sounds really tough. You must find both RA management and your new gut problems extremely irritating to handle at once. Together with your pain relief you still experience ongoing bloating complications that drag on without a resolution. Of course visiting a doctor to obtain a proper celiac diagnostic evaluation becomes necessary when no formal diagnosis has been received. Your journey toward recovery has been lengthy yet it brings comfort to notice your progress during this time. This support group offers you valuable help because there are people experiencing the same concerns with you. Working through your issues will be easier.

      Certified gluten free oats

      By dublin555 · Posted

      Yeah, it’s tricky. I’ve seen a lot of mixed opinions too. Some folks can tolerate certified gluten-free oats without a problem, but others with celiac still react. Honestly, it really depends on your sensitivity. Your doctor would be the best person to ask about your specific situation.
