I have been diagnosed with coeliac disease for around 4 months. I would say im strict on the gluten free diet including excluding may contain or produced in a factory that contains as advised and its always better to be on the safe side.

Since being diagnosed and cutting out gluten my eating habits have be come irregular with some days eating no more than one meal. In the last three weeks i've started to experience pain in my upper left abdomen with no real pattern. Some days theres just a nagging pain all day other days it feels like a knife is being rammed into my side for 10 or 20 minutes.

Does anybody have any experience of this or any idea what could be causing it?
