Ahh thanks for that, I haven't been positively tested, but my mother has it. Since going gluten-free the terrible gas odour has gone but the C and a bit of bloating is there also don't have an appetite much but I still eat. Just hoping it is the gluten what's causing this so I've got to the bottom of it at last!

Hi all, I've been gluten-free for about 2 and a half weeks now. The BAD flatulence I was getting has totally gone, and the bloating has decreased a little after eating, I did have 'C'(lucky for one bm a week, now its pretty regular just rabbit pellets!)

I was just wondering if you had these symptoms when did they finally go or decrease? Also if you had no appetite, when did that come back?! Thankyou.

Nothing I can really think of that's like that.. Unless the rice cakes could do that?

I keep getting tiny white dots when I have a bowel movements, what could this be?!

Yeah things seem to be improving! (Fingers crossed!!)

Hahaha! I hope I'm not turning into a moose either!!!!

Ahh I see, thanks a lot.

Ok thanks, atleast its better than not even 1 a week before going gluten free!

Can it be the clearing of colon+intestines? What I've read about suggests it could be(especially as gluten damages intestines)

Cheers:)

Hi, sorry about the horrible topic but I've just been concerned with a lot of things recently. I have been gluten-free for about a week and a half, and a lot of my symtoms have decreased, no bad flatuence, not so bad bloating etc. When I wasn't gluten-free I had VERY bad bowel movements (sometimes not even 1 a week!) Now I'm on it they're a LOT more regular, bit a lot of it is hard little marble types but loads of them! I've searched it on the internet and some sites said it can be a sign of your colon/intestines clearing after bad constipation (as its been there a while and its turned hard and into balls). Can this be true?

Thanks for the feedback! I think its just my body adjusting:)

The reason I say this to is because these symtoms have only started after I've gone gluten-free (just over a week)

Yeah, I don't think its that, as I get it in both sides. Nothing serious or painful just wondering if it could be sign of improvement?

I have a little shooting pain down the right side of my stomach after eating, it isn't at all that painful and goes within a hour or less. Is this part of healing process? Maybe the healing of intestines? Or colon pushing all the waste out from the big C?!

Ahhh ok cheers. I think its just celiac to be honest(fingers crossed ) as things are improving!

Do routine blood tests implicate if thyroid is high or low?

Trying it myself as my mum has it as of 9 years. My symptoms have been for about 9 months but seem to be improving. Constipation, lack of appetite, bloating after eating, rumbly tummy, bad flatuence.

Haha thanks! And yeah things seem better ill see how they go!

Thanks for the feedback ill look into a humidifier! and yeah that could be the reason the anxiety, because my symptoms have decreased a little since a week gluten-free. I have had A LOT BETTER bowel movements now, regular.

These past few days its been a lot better after being a week on gluten free, I didn't ever have bowel movements, 1 a week if that! Now I've been every day since the diet. Touch wood lol!!

Thanks:) and they've died down a bit now, as I don't much caffinated drinks now, probably was the cause!

I've read that the problem with the lips could be due to nutrients deficiency? (Celiac as nutrients aren't being absorbed) and yeah thought it was, I think that they was just in my head when I thought it.

Also can frequent urination and dehydration be symptoms?

Again another post I just want to be clear on, I keep posting but just want confirmation!

Can waking up in the morning with like, sticky, chapped lips with a white coating be a symptom of celiac disease? Cheers
