: Hello,
: Id love some to give me a bit of advice. For the past 5 years I have experienced changed bowel movements on and off. Been to the doctors had lots of tests ultrasounds etc. They told me there was nothin wrong. The symptoms I experience are Bloating, LOTS of gas, colicky cramps relieved by going to the toilet, when I do go the first motion is generally ok, but I find that I have to go about 2/3 times after this and those motions are not normal. They tend to smell a lot more (sorry!) be very soft and seem to contain a lot of water? And often have like a jelly on them? Theres never any bleeding and no apparent weight loss! My stomach also tends to bloat after eating then I get this horrendous amount of gas?
: Does this sound like what other people here experience or Cancer??
: Its always far worse when Im anxious I do worry about my health a lot and this seems to make things worse. Oh yeah and its definetly worse after alcohol? Help me Please!
: Thanx

Actually, it sounds like me. I discovered I have Celiac Disease, an allergy to wheat, rye, barley and oats. Most alcohol, with the exception of wines, tequila and some others are made from distilled grain of some sort. You might try cutting out wheat, including bread, cereal, etc. I can't tell if your username UKLAD means you live in the UK, but there is a high instance of Celiac Disease in the UK and Canada. Look up www.celiac.com and check out some of the symptoms. After I removed those items from my diet, I have no more problems! Hope this helps!
