Gluten intolerance/allergies?



Recommended Posts

Anyone who has had gluten allergies or intolerance have the sleeve? I am almost 4 weeks out. Have had gluten allergy for 5 years. Since the surgery I have mostly avoided gluten but when I did get gluten my body didn't have the same reactions as prior to surgery. Anyone else out there have similar experience?

I was diagnosed with Celiac's almost 4 years ago. That diagnosis made lots of things make sense to me. I've had lots of practice eating gluten free. It's not so bad.

Without getting into a lot of details regarding my own experiences with gluten. I think this happens because your body has not had gluten in a long time and is able to process a little now, but most-likely it will show signs of it's dislike of gluten the more you eat.

Been gf for 3 years and stayed that way since my sleeve surgery. Just don't want to risk it. I'm used to it anyhow.

I have celiac so it's absolutely essential that I avoid gluten in its entirety. I have several food allergies as well but none developed post sleeve, they were all pre existing.

The gluten free diet plays nicely with good nutrition post-op. Personally I think we have an advantage over those who are tempted by Cookies, Pasta, pizza, bread etc because we simply can't eat them. You just have to watch for hidden sources of gluten, like soy sauce, anything with modified corn starch as an ingredient, etc.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
