I started to develop problems about 2 months ago that seem like could be celiac disease, but I'm not sure if that's really what it is...

I hear that most people that have celiac have leaky gut...that's not the case with me. I never have that problem. When it first started I noticed that I would get really constipated...for days if i ate any grains. And I would have a swelling and sharp pain in my left rib cage.

I've tried gluten free...It does the same thing. Anything that has grain or is a substitute for grain completely stops me up.

I've thought it could possibly be dairy or soy...but when i quit those and try to eat grain or grain substitutes, it happens again.

I've tried spelt flour, almond flour, bean flour, rice flour, and soy flour. They all affect me.

does this even sound like celiac? or maybe an allergy to something else?

You could be intolerant to grains in general. This is not uncommon.

But you would need to be tested to find out if you have Celiac since the dietary response is unclear. Blood and biopsy.
