GLUTEN INTOLERANCE???

Question

I've been having issues the last year. I *finally* went to a doctor about my issues and he issued me a blood test, the most important one being celiac disease. thinking nothing of it, afterwards I went to chilies and got the California turkey club which comes on wheat bread.
not even 30 minutes after eating I get this excruciating pain in the middle of my upper stomach between my ribcage that hasn't let up for about 8 hours now.
I have chronic constipation (that's why I was going to the doctors to begin with) Does anybody have a gluten intolerance and can tell me if this is a symptom?

Answer

All I'm going to say is if it's really a concern to you, and you want to be positive if it's Celiac or an intolerance, get a biopsy. I had that done when I was 12 - now 15 - and that's how I was diagnosed with Celiac disease. The ting is, the blood test isn't always positive. I had an array of blood tests done that we're all telling different things, but never really answered the question, so I had to get a biopsy anyway. If that's not an option, just try your best to eat a gluten-free diet and see how you feel after a while. Hope that helped! :)

Answer

Yes I have gluten intolerance and I get massive amounts of pain after eating something with gluten in it. Mine is usually near my left set of ribs and the pain is excruciating

Answer

I experienced the same symptoms: pain in the upper stomach, issues pooing, headaches, general  tiredness, foggy thinking. A naturopath told me I'm gluten intolerant. Although not as severe as celiac disease, the intolerance causes damage to the lining of the intestines affecting adsorption of nutrients, evidenced by my low iron count.  Those who are gluten intolerant are also recommended to remove dairy, soy and barley from your diet as these add to the body being inflamed and hamper healing once gluten is removed from the diet.  So read your food labels. Go for natural foods as mainly processed foods including candies and most over the counter chocolates contain gluten.

Answer

That might be an intolerance but not celiac's. It's actually not as common as people think.

Answer

Do you frequently have pain when you eat gluten? When my friend finally got diagnosed, she literally thought she she was dying. She could barely leave the couch. If it's just this one time, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Good luck, hon!
