Sometimes if I eat too late I wake up the next morning super swollen and hurting. Even just a light snack. Anyone else deal with this?

Hey all! I had to join and ask this question because yet another morning I woke up super swollen, knotted and hurting. This doesn’t happen ever time I eat late, and I can’t figure out what is the trigger. Some mornings im fine others not. I don’t usually eat late but sometimes with life it happens. 
has anyone experienced anything like this before?

DesJourdan, welcome to the forum!

Does it seem to matter what you eat at such times? I would suggest keeping a food diary to see if there are patterns related to what you eat in the evenings.

Also, when you say eat late, how late? How long before bed time?

Thanks!! I think the problem is mainly a sweet treat or eating too much before bed. Prob within 1-2 hours. This always happens when I am at my bfs house. He eats later and we stay up later then when I’m at my home so then I do crash not too long after food. 
I will have to start doing the food diary and just get more strict on diet again I’ve just never had this problem until eating late. 
thanks!!

Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease? You have not said that but I wonder (assume) that is the case because you posted on a forum for celiac disease.

Have you been checked for SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth)?

Have you been checked for gallbladder disease?

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info

      A relative has opened another door for me on this issue -- the possibility of menopause raising HDL. Most studies suggest that menopause decreases HDL-C, however, one study found that often it's increased. "Surprisingly, HDL cholesterol was higher (p < 0.001) in postmenopausal women by 11%. Further, the number of women who had low HDL cholesterol was higher in pre vs. postmenopausal women. The range of ages were 26–49 years for pre-menopausal and 51–74 years for postmenopausal women. "This interesting finding has also been observed by other investigators. It is possible that the observed increase in HDL-C in postmenopausal women could be due to a protective mechanism to counterbalance the deleterious effects of biomarkers associated with menopause. However, further studies are needed to confirm this theory. And to the point raised earlier about functionality: "...some patients with elevated HDL-C concentrations could remain at risk for coronary events if HDL is not functional and some authors have suggested that this could be the case for menopausal women." Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome. By no means to I think this is definitive, rather food for thought.

      Yes, lots of delicious things have barley malt. It also doesn't include rye. And there are a number of grains commonly cross contaminated such as oats.   Additionally, wheat allergies are different from gluten allergies as wheat allergies are a reaction to a wheat protein. So something *could* contain wheat gluten without causing a wheat allergic response (though realistically,  I don't know how likely that is to occur)

      Although it is true that FDA regulations don't require gluten to be included in allergy info, it does require wheat and ingredients made from wheat to be listed. Of course, that doesn't preclude gluten from barley being found in a product.

      I had a lot of weird/random symptoms for a few months after going gluten free. But eventually they evened out and I felt SO MUCH BETTER. The person above wrote a very detailed message that looks helpful. I'd add don't forget to check for gluten in places like medicine. Advil liquigels, for example, have gluten. It's very frustrating trying to figure out if things are gluten free as us law doesn't require it to be declared. The only labeling rule is that if the product says gluten free, it must have less than 20ppm gluten.
