(This actually makes sense for my IBS specifically because I know I have peripheral neuropathy and often get muscle twitches elsewhere on my body. Like for IBS they tell you to take fibre and eat less more often because it's supposed to hurt less when it has something in it, and one theory about IBS is that the colon spasms erratically for whatever reason. I don't know why it would be more painful on an empty stomach, but that seems to be a known thing. And if it's still spasmaming (gah, spazzing), then of course the most recent food won't be digested because it's only in your system a fraction of the time that's needed for it to get broken down. Like when your digestive system first starts to speed up and push things along to get out, it will have lots of digested food and semi-digested food in it first, so that's what's first to leave. It all seems to me just like D that's long lasting and is more painful once your stomach is empty. Second, pay attention to the way you time your meals. The more I read now about celiac disease and what I learned trying to figure out why I felt like did when doctors told me I was healthy before I was diagnosed, the more I realize that there's just soooo much that we don't know about current health problems.Įrr, I guess you didn't specifically complain about the diarrhea but the pains afterwards and such. First, pack your diet with probiotics, fiber, and plenty of water, which are all hugely helpful for digestion. I think a lot of people like to think that current medicine is awesome and that even if we don't know exactly how to cure everything, we know all that there is to know about current medical conditions. I find it hard to imagine that small amounts of gluten would change what lives inside you so easily. In regards to what happens to you specifically, one theory I have about your problem specifically is that at some point your body has come to recognize gluten as a poison instead of a food, something that will make it sick, and so diarrhea and vomitting is like the body's natural way of getting rid of whatever it is that's making it sick in your digestive system.įor celiacs who used to have regular diarrhea but who don't get it when they accidentally eat gluten now, the diarrhea was probably because their intestinal flora was all messed up. talks about very recent research into celiac disease that specialists probably wouldn't even know unless they were at the top of their game.Īfter all, gluten sensitivity is a very real thing too, one where someone can feel are sorts of bad to gluten but yet have good intestines. We just don't know a whole lot about the why and how. It's pretty clear there are other reactions a body can have to gluten. However I don't think things like stomach pains, headaches, sore joints, diarrhea, brain fog, etc, that celiacs get after just 1 exposure to gluten have much to do with damaged villi. You're right in that celiac disease causes malabsorption which includes fat malabsorption which can cause someone to have diarrhea.
