Rice is a big problem for me. After 6 months of being grain-free, I decided to try adding rice back into my diet a few weeks ago. I was fine for the first 2 days, but then I got very uncomfortable guts/bloating/gas, my stools became very narrow and I got really constipated (I eat at least 30g of fiber a day so it's not that!), and my body started to ache...

I've been unable to find any soy-free gum (oil and lecithin get me too). I'd never heard of Glee Gum, but I looked it up and it's got other stuff I can't handle. I really miss gum!

I have no idea whether it was one of these things that helped, or if it was just a matter of a little more healing time, but my chest/rib pain is now 90% gone. I still get... -
Rib Cage Pain?
julandjo replied to book-worm's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Just chiming in to add that I too have had tons of rib/chest pain. For years. Not a single doctor or specialist has been able to figure out why. I was dx'd Celiac in June, but couldn't convince my dr. to do the bloodwork for vitamin/mineral deficiencies until August. My vit. D was very low (25), but still I had to push the issue to get an rx for a high... -
Ohhhhh yeah, those need to go. They can absolutely cause you problems. Sorry.
