im still healing. was only in hospital for stomach pain 2 months ago so im not expecting miracles. im slowly feeling much much better, but the past 2 weeks ive been really sore. i mean i havent been out of bed. this is the first time its happened since going gluten free 2 months ago. i was thinking i cross contaminated so ive bought all new kitchen things since. my question is, how do i ease the pain? shorten the length of it? anything really that could help? are there any tricks you guys have that you could share. ive just gotten rid of dairy yesterday and today im even feeling a little less sore. i also take L Glutamine capsules since a few days ago. anything else i should be doing? i cant deal with potent drinks though :blink:

Take probiotics to promote healthy gut flora. Take digestive enzymes to help out your pancreas which may not be producing enough.

Water, drink lots of it.

Taking hot showers helps me when its really bad, heck even a nice hot bath would work (as hot as you can stand it).

Try walking a little bit, sometimes that helps with pain.

Some of us have a situation about that time where our intestinal nerves seem to be healing and sending tons of long dormant info to our brains, confusing the heck out it. For me, starting around 6 weeks, it was like static on a radio that is not tuned to a station turned up real loud. Just constant bombarding my consciousness with a bunch an unchanging static that was very unpleasant. On top of that all of the normal movement down felt very strong and cramp-like. I would wake up with only the noise...then about the time my breakfast started moving through my intestines it would be this near constant over-communication from all that was going on down there.

I think after a time your brain adjusts to having the info again and does the proper things with it (subconsciously) and you are no longer aware of it.

After a few weeks the noise has died down now for me, and the over-communication of the movement seems to be limited to the last part of the small intestine just before it empties into the large int.

Hang in there. It will get better with time.

Gluten often has a negative effect on our pancreas - which is a little factory which manufactures enzymes which help us digest our food, lipase for fat, amylase, cellulase, etc., etc., and the pancreas takes a little holiday, leaving us with difficulty digesting the food that is coming through the intestinal tract. Taking these supplements helps the digestion so that food does not putrefy in the gut. :D or does not churn around in there needlessly or hurry through as fast as it can.

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By growlinhard1 · Posted

      I had the endoscopy with biopsy done. I have gastritis and duodenitis at this point. The biopsy should provide the cause of the inflammation findings. How common are these findings when Celiac is the ultimate culprit?

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Welcome to the forum @cookiesyum, I lasted on staton for about a month before getting so weak I had to stop.   Switched to Nicotinic Acid and I posted the results in a previous post.  Instead of getting sicker and weaker on the statin I feel I am improving day by day.  Nicotinic Acid was first used for cholesterol in 1955.

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      According to research, consuming gluten can potentially trigger sudden mood swings and increased irritability in children, particularly those with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, making them more likely to have tantrums or display behavioral issues; this is because gluten can trigger an immune response in the body, potentially impacting brain function and neurotransmitter levels.  When my son was diagnosed in 1976 when he was weaned his doctor told us that at 5 years old his kindergarden teacher would beg us to put him on Ritalin.  And so it did happen.  My son was on Ritalin though high school.  In the morning he was a devil who could not put on his socks. Half an hour after the morning dose he was an angel wanting to help mom get ready.  Talk about Jekyll and Hyde! Dr Danel Amen could be a good resource for you.

      Yes, it certainly can! My daughter has a reaction from just playing with Playdough. She doesn't get GI symptoms at first, just psychological mostly. It can get really bad. It's like night/day behavior. My daughter is eight, but started showing signs around 6.

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      By cookiesyum · Posted

      The easiest way to remember the difference between the cholesterol types is HDL;   H=healthy equals healthy (omega 3, 7, limit 6 & 9 MCFA'S =Medium Chain Fatty Acids. 3= coconut oil, 7= sunflower oil, avocado. The higher your HDL the healthier you are & less likely to experience strokes, clogged arteries Etc. You can even use cold expeller pressed coconut oil on your skin and that is the best kind of coconut oil to eat as well. You want your HDL much higher than your LDL, it will help you stay healthy.   LDL;    L=Lousy. Meat fats, processed fats.  The higher your LDL is the more likely you will have strokes, clogged artery is, heart disease, fatty liver.   Then there's lipids... they are the culprit to be blamed for many heart attacks and things like that they are very small round particles that transport fats. You can have a low overall cholesterol reading and most of it be healthy cholesterol and have a ton of lipids and there's nothing you can do to change the lipid count. High number of lipids is very dangerous.   I'm going on statins is extremely dangerous if you ask me it's just completely my opinion, because I have seen so many of my elderly friends bleed to death internally because of the statins. I mean you wouldn't take all the oil and grease out of your car or a motorcycle and then try to drive it that way would you? You see that's what statins do they remove all of your bodies fats and it doesn't matter whether it's healthy fats or a lousy fats. It removes all of them and then your body can't function properly. You have to have fats to keep your skin supple and to stay warm. Your body also needs fats to digest & process certain nutrients, amino acids & vitamins.   Your brain is composed of fat so is that something you really want to remove with a pill every morning and night?   The thing about statins is that they also make the blood vessels and capillaries permeable. So this is how my friends who were on cardiac medication for a long time and statins ended up bleeding internally to death.   If you want to make sure that your heart is healthy, take odorless garlic at night and magnesium, vitamin K & calcium.
