Inhaled Arrowroot Flour

This is the first time I've used arrowroot flour...and I didn't even eat it. I used it to flour a board to prevent some food from sticking. It is pretty powdery and I ended up inhaling some of it and immediately felt that glutened feeling (for me it is a bit of a headache followed by a feeling of angry bee stings in my stomach). I didn't touch or eat anything else for several hours before this and this flour is the only thing that could have caused this. Is this possible?

Ouuuuuch!

thanks

I've heard that you have to be careful with some companies, just in the sense of contamination of their "gluten free" flours. I use Bob's red mill brand b/c they regularly test their gluten-free flours for gluten. I'm sure others can suggests brands that they feel are safe.

What brand was it that you used?

It was a generic no-label brand. I should have known better. If it doesn't specifically say gluten-free, then I should run away from it...

I just had a pizza dough with arrowroot... Only new ingredient I havent had in years.. The box. Was from Simple mills pizza dough.. I had the normal gluten reaction, as well as my daughter.. We both have celiac.. Never again for me.. Maybe even though certified gluten free..  my body knows better.

      Yes,  Lisinopril gave me an inguinal hernia from the persistant cough. Amlodipine doubled urine output and dry eyes so I could not wear contacts, another had me walking bent over like a ninety year old and one knocked out control of my quadracepts so knees would give out.  None lowered my blood pressure. Average BP  132/67 for Oct 21 - 26.  Lowest was 100/59. High 157/62.

      I was undiagnosed for quite a few years. I now have neuropathy in my hands and feet. Be watchful of something like this and definitely see a neurologist if having symptoms like numbness in your extremities.
