I Think I Got Glutened

I woke up with D reminiscent of my pre-gluten-free days. This was worse than milk D, and even worse than soy D. Mouth watering, major pain in the lower abdomen, two rounds of having to run to the bathroom and having to be quite noisy. :huh:

If that wasn't bad enough, I had to run to the hall bathroom instead of the one in my bedroom because that was clogged and since my 2 y.o. was in bed with us he, of course, followed me into the bathroom! <_< Having been recently potty trained, he loves to flush and when he did, of course he had to comment......ugh!

I recall on Monday night that I cut the little guy's glutenous spaghetti with a knife and then mistakenly used it later to cut my own meatballs. Do you think that was enough? I felt kind of ill last night, tired and had a headache. Not quite a migraine (which will probably follow, if I remember the pattern) but a headache nonetheless.

Oh, I'm so sorry you feel so bad! Ugh!

Cutting my meatball with a knife that had cut spaghetti would have been enough to make my feel that sick. I'd bet that's what it was.

I hope you feel better soon!

something else to think of----and I know it sucks to even think about it----but the more I cut out, the more I realized I was reacting to.

What have you been eating now that you have found out about your intolerances?

but yes, the spaghetti part--- that is enough, unfortunately.

feel better!!!!! :)

Well, I *think* I cut out everything. I'm mostly eating salad, baked potatoes, meats, cereal, rice milk, rice pasta.....shoot, if I'm allergic to rice I'm screwed! LOL

I actually don't think it's that. I drink rice milk every day, so I would think I would have reacted long before now.

Even though my Thanksgiving was gluten-free and I know Smitty's in Canmore tried to make it gluten-free, I still got glutened. As that day at the restaurant I had to run for the bathroom, it wasn't total D but it was soft enough. Well, on the way home I started to get DH. Now in time for my Tv interview on Celiac disease today, they got a chance to see a very mild form of DH on me, meaning my whole face is not consumed by it but below my bottom lip is. How nice to look scary on tv.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      Prior to being diagnosed, I had a gluten heavy diet. I stopped all gluten exactly a week ago and have continued to feel sick in the ways I did prior to going gluten free - primarily on and off nausea, brain fog, and fatigue. Wondering if this is normal and, if so, how long can I expect to feel this way?

      Some of the largest contract manufacturers in the U.S. include companies like NutraScience Labs, Capsugel (part of Lonza), and Thorne Research. These companies produce supplements for a wide range of brands, from small startups to well-known names.

      Thank you for your feed back and knowledge.  Scott do you know the names of the BIG manufactures who produce most supplements?  Love to research them all and decide on their principles and manufacturing certifications who I want to spend my dollars with if they provide other non private label supplements that are good.
