Struggling with hypothyroid and low stomach acid

Hello! I am a 23 year old male.

I have recovered from eating disorder and severe thyroid issues.

But I am still struggling with low stomach acid.

I am still taking armour thyroid but because of hypochlorhydria, I am still taking Betaine HCL.

I am passing gas all the time and my stomach is bloated most of the time, which makes me very irritated.

I really think am a healthy male now, but this low stomach acid issue never goes away. It's still hard to digest food and I'm belching constantly plus the bloating.

I really think this is related to the thyroid issue, has anyone have experience with low stomach acid and its treatment?

 

Hi

I can't say I have noticed any bloating but I do pass gas quite often. But I have recently had my gallbladder removed about 3 mo ago they maybe related to the gas.

Chiffon, you've had your gallbladder out? Oh dear honey.

Everyone I've seen have their gallbladder out gains massive weight. I've heard a diet extremely low in fats helps. 

What at has your experience been?

Hi LP, I sent a post, but it isn't showing up. If it doesn't show up, PM me and I'll pass on what I've learned in my years with thyroid disease, as your question is excellent!

Hello,

I was gaining weight went 200 lbs when I was hyper never weighed that much in my life. Now hypo I have been losing weight. I have to stay away from too much fried foods though.

Hi Chiffon, glad you're on the mend. Seems a little backwards that you gained weight while hyper and losing while hypo. Hmmm. Most people are very thin while hyperthyroid, as extreme weight loss is a symptom.

Similsrly,weight gain can be a symptom of hypothyroidism.

In the end, if you're feeling like yourself again, that's great!

Hello,
