I was diagnosed 2 weeks ago after YEARS of searching for answers. I witnessed my parents go thru all I did. They have been dead for 8 years and they never knew. Now I know that all of their flatulence, belching, etc. were Celiac symptoms...poor dears. Now I suffer at age 60 from the same. The difference is I now know the reason...in addition to Celiac I have immune antibodies to soy, dairy, casein and eggs! I just want to know, how long until all the gurggling stops?? I hate it. It's so loud that my lap dog barks at it and runs to the front door. Can anyone tell me how they handle this? Are there any remedies? And, how long till the villi heal?

At your age, it could take up to two years for the villi to completely heal. You may have some permanent damage, as I am sure I do.

Two weeks isn't very long. I am sure the gurgling will stop soon.

I was sick about 7 years. My stomach noises were getting worse. About a week after I went gluten-free I realized that I had gone through an entire day without "feeling" my stomach. It was amazing. I haven't had any of those problems since (about 3months) unless I inadvertently ate somthing bad.

Give it a couple of years.

In the meantime, if you buy a good probiotic, like Digestive Advantage for Irritable Bowel... that stuff helped me quite a bit... I just recently got to the point where I could stop taking the stuff... (just over 2 years gluten free... 54 years old)... it didn't make it all well, but it helped a whole lot.

I tried Culturelle one time; it's expensive and that stuff made me WORSE... so... anyway, the Digestive Advantage IBS is gluten free, cheap, (6.99 for a one-month supply in my area), and it helped me get through the first couple of years.

That's all I know to tell you... it does take time.

I am 44 and had been undiagnosed for over 11 years, I have been gluten-free for 4 mo. and I still get slight stomach gurgling, especially at night. I have found these have lessoned in intensity over time. I think you just need longer to heal. You will be surprised at the other symptoms that clear up as well!
