Gluten Intolerance?

[iuliamw]

I am a 24 year old female who since I was in high school, I burp every day almost continually.  I can suppress to an extent but it makes me uncomfortable, and I cannot stop burping.  It only relieves me a tiny bit to burp - it feels like I am never getting the gas out.  Luckily, I don't vomit from this but once in a while.  I often have diarrhea and almost never am regular or don't feel bloated. . . Mostly the burping drives me crazy. . .  When this first was onset in high school, I went to my family dr., and they tried me on various acid reflux type meds. . . This was several years ago so I do not remember it all, but I do think I tried prevacid.  Those did nothing but frustrated me more.
Just the other day I heard that this might be a gluten intolerance and I am considering cutting glutens on a trial basis to see if I feel better.  My symptoms are pretty much daily, and I have learned to live with them but I'd rather not!

If you are consuming drinks that are carbonated, such as sodas, you could be burping all the time. If you are not drinking sodas then, I suggest you go to a GI specialist and have tests done to see why and then you will be treated correctly for it.
