[quote=Anonymous]Please describe your symptoms for celiac and/or lactose intolerance and/or IBS. I have been experiencing stomach issues for the last four weeks, including explosive diarrhea, gas, and foamy mucus (this last symptom is occurring at every bathroom visit). I am physically worn out and have lost five pounds. I thought this all started with a reintroduction of dairy to my diet after 10 months (I was breastfeeding and have abstained from dairy for all three of my kids due to milk protein allergies). I have never had issues with dairy myself (or any stomach ailments), but the timing was such that it seemed like it could now be an issue. I immediately stopped eating dairy again but the symptoms have remained, especially the foamy mucus situation. I had an appointment with my doctor this week and he suspects IBS. He recommended low fodmap which I will try. I do eat gluten in the form of kids snacks that I can't resist (damn you Annie's chocolate bunnies) but generally not much. I have hypothyroidism which I have successfully managed with Synthroid for the last 8 years. I am 38. I would appreciate hearing others' experiences with such issues. Thank you.[/quote]
