The purpose of this post is to summarize replies to my 7/29 post
regarding "urgency, soiling - not diarrhea"
The primary question was: Is bm urgency/soiling a symptom of gluten
intolerance?
Blood test results were also listed:
IgG antigliadin antibody elevated
IgA antigliadin antibody elevated
tTG and anti-endomysial normal
IgE egg whites elevated
IgG casein elevated
I received 38 replies. Thanks for all of your caring responses!
I have grouped the replies into 4 types:
1. Yes bm urgency/soiling is a symptom experienced by individuals with
CD when gluten is ingested -16 replies
2. Suggested food allergy/intolerance (other than gluten)- 2 replies
3. Suggested constipation/encopresis as the cause - 4 replies
4. Offered other suggestions - 16 replies (have stool autopsy, just try
gluten free to see what happens, short-term and very wholesome and
limited diet, probiotic, celiac based on blood tests, test stool for
bacteria, feed cooked quinoa with each meal, eliminate all foods that
have a laxative effect on the body, vitamin b supplements)
This is my first summary. I hope I've provided relevant information. I
saved the detailed replies if anyone would like more detail.
