 Posted: 01/07/08 - 00:51 Post subject: Bloating and gas causing upper abdominal pain; ulcers and Ce |
  |
|
| I've experienced upper abdominal pain along with bloating for 1 year. I've been diagnosed with ulcers (10-20), then Celiac Disease, acid reflux and endometriosis. However, the doctors cannot figure out what caused the ulcers since I tested negative for H. Pylori and the bacterial overgrowth breath test. They're also not sure that I have Celiac Disease due to my Igg being slightly positive, Iga being negative and the vili are just slightly atrophied. I have been on Prevacid, Prilosec or Nexium off and on for 6 months and a gluten free diet with little to no relief in pain or discomfort. On top of that i have lost 20+ lbs. I am 5'6 and 106 lbs. I used to be 130+! I am now seeking help from an accupuncturist who has me on a Wheat free, dairy free, meat free, citrus fruit free, root vegetable free diet which is nearly impossible to follow. I have had endoscopies, colonoscopies, lapraoscopies, and ultrasounds with no answers. It's worse at night and even a couple bites of white rice leaves me gassy and bloated. Any ideas? |

| I have a little girl age seven with almost the identical problems. She has a min of 4-5 ulcers ( that is all they could count) they think she has celiacs with no relief on gluten free diet - actually got worse. She also has several other conditions including a cataract, what we know as 2 genetic diseases, and multiple dental anomolies. Unfortunately we have not found any answers yet either. i was wondering if you had otten any answers yet. I know there are several complications of celiacs that could fit these symptoms. Can you let us know what you have found out or not found out. We are desparately seeking help for our daughter. We have been doing this for 2 years now. |

| celiac can take years to heal and during such time the 'symptoms' can seem like they worsen, when they really are just 'finishing up' what had already started. the healing process takes time and during that time food, other than gluten, can also cause 'flare ups' due to situational in tolerances -- most common is dairy. An damage to the villi is celiac and the only treatment for celiac is a complete gluten free diet -- no cross-contamination no 'cheating' -- nothing. Only then can the healing begin. Do not rule out this disease which affects 1 in 50 people before following a strict and absolute gluten free diet for at least 4 years. Plus, celiac can lead to ulcers in addition to other gastro-intestinal disorders. |
