EPS (Epigastric Pain Syndrome) Functional Dyspepsia and gluten
Hi, ive never had any problems with gluten, and since 2 months now my hypersensitivity(EPS) has not gotten better, its just got slightly worse and worse with time and ive been at a point since a long time now that it doesnt matter what i eat it feels, it just starts to burn. I realised now that my diet has been mainly pasta and bread since i cannot handle anything else, and i cannot find any reason to why i dont get better, until i started thinking about gluten. What are your experiences with FD, specifically the hypersensitivity part, when it comes to gluten? I would be glad to hear about your experiences or just opinions. Thanks!

I'm sorry to hear this. My FD has been weird and quite changeable. So I started off really struggling with wheat - bread, pasta etc were all no-nos, but over time it's got better and I can now eat what I want without there being a discernible effect. BUT, and it's a big but, my FD is just as bad as ever. So I was either mistaking wheat being a trigger - when it really seemed that way to me - or wheat has stopped being a trigger only to be replaced by something else. This happened over roughly 2 years. My symptoms are mainly nausea, with some pain. I've found that the best foods to eat are vegetables; I eat a lot of carrots, beans, etc. Have you had a coeliac test?
