<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Dear Friends of the Celiac Community: Yesterday I suffered a significant bout of lower tract discomfort and related challenges. It was not a pleasant time and today I am still quite sore. I lost four pounds in the process. This is the first time in the past four years, since discovering that I was Celiac, that I have had such a severe reaction. In fact, I had thought recently that perhaps I was decreasing in sensitivity to wheat products. However, I think all of the symptoms point to ingesting wheat some time this past week. I am wondering if anyone has a suggestion in terms of settling the lower tract after such a bout. Is there some sort of natural product that would help relieve this feeling of tenderness and loss of appetite? I will hope that the symptoms will gradually diminish over the next few days. If not, I will need to consult with a GI specialist to get a sense of the seriousness of the situation and what treatments might be feasible. Thanks for your input.
