I got diagnosed three and a half weeks ago and went GF immediately (was used to concept as mother and niece both coeliac). I didn’t have gastric symptoms before diagnosis or so I thought, although it transpires that I have both a hiatus hernia and also a small amount of Barratt’s oesophagus due to reflux. My problem is that SINCE cutting out gluten I have had wind, gripes and acidity etc from time to time more than I ever would have had when eating gluten? Has anyone else experienced this kind of adjustment? I am very allergic to quinoa so have taken great care to make sure that it’s not included in any of the breads I buy, but I do think the breads are not helping. Wondered if it could be xanthan gum or something like that. I have been avoiding gf oats as well at this stage. Fibre intake seems ok, it’s just the wind. My non gf diet was otherwise the same as now - lots of vegetables and lean protein - so I’m sure it’s something I’m eating now just don’t know if it is to be expected at first. Thanks for any ideas!
