Guest guest Posted December 16, 2001 Report Share Posted December 16, 2001 Debby.....I have awful gas and burps all the time too! Can AIH or Celiac Sprue cause awful constipation? Just wondering! I can often clear a room too! LOL! If we went out to eat together, we could have the WHOLE RESTAURANT TO OURSELVES! LOL! **HAPPY**HOLIDAYS** **AND WARM HUGS** Bert. Bert, with Celiac, I used to think the bloating was caused from it, but now I am convinced that the bloating was from the AIH. For the past year, I would get this horrible indigestion...I would just not eat for 2-3 days because I could not stand to eat for my stomach seemed so full! Now, I am convinced it was from the AIH, but then, I thought it was that I was getting something with gluten in it. What happens now, since the AIH is being treated, I just get diarreah and horrible smelling gas! I have always had bad gas, but this stuff can clear a room! Unfortunately, the damage it does is terrible to the small intestine. But, like tonight, I went to dinner at my Mom's retirement place and she was upset that I wouldn't eat the dinner...so rather than cause a scene, I ate the dinner. NOW, I am paying for it dearly. Horrible stomach pains, awful headache, the bathroom is my new home....all of the symptoms of celiac contamination. Oh well.....I hope I won't have to eat with her again! I just can't take the chance any more. With me starting the new meds next week, I just cannot afford to be sick from food! debby [ ] Debby.... Thanks for the Info. on Celiac Sprue. Boy I sure learn a lot new things here. Sorry you have that! Is it painful or does it cause bloating?Thanks....Hope you are good!10 DAYS TO CHRISTAMS.....WOOHOO!!! **HAPPY**HOLIDAYS** **AND WARM HUGS** Bert.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2001 Report Share Posted December 16, 2001 Debby, It sounds like you need to be very careful of what you eat, especially with new meds so you know what ailments to attribute to what. You must have to be very in tune to what your body does. I wish I was better at that. I have a journal where I write my "symptoms" of the day, just to keep track!! Good luck with all of that!!

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2001 Report Share Posted December 16, 2001 THANKS DEBBY!! I WILL ASK MY DOC. IF IT MAY BE POSSIBLE I COULD BE SUFFERING FROM THAT.... I JUST WANT TO KNOW ALREADY WHAT IN THE BLAZES IS WRONG!!!! LOTS OF PAIN TODAY....UNBEARABLE! **HAPPY**HOLIDAYS** **AND WARM HUGS** Bert. Bert, yes, constipation IS one of the symptoms of Celiac...although, it is not as common as the diarhea. Just like most are stick thin, and I am fat, so the constipation is a symptom. Since celiac sprue is more common than the western medical people think, it might not be a bad idea to ask the doctor for a biopsy of the small intesting as long as you are going in for that liver biopsy! You are going to be sedated anyway so they could do it. You might ask, although the doctor probably won't do it. The blood work that is given is the IgG and IgA to screen for Celiac. Go for it. After all, it is YOUR body. debby Fwd: [ ] Debby.... Debby.....I have awful gas and burps all the time too! Can AIH or Celiac Sprue cause awful constipation?
