Hello

i am in maui on the last night of my honeymoon. i have yet to knowlign be glutened as i dont eat at restaurants and our house is gluten-free. tonight we had strawberries covere din chocolate brought ot the room. we called dowon and they said there was no gluten in the chocolat sauce so i ate one strawberry. two minutes later we got a call saying there in fact was wheat listed on teh ingredient list. i have to travel tommorow night for more than 14 hours and i am just terrified now that i will be really sick. i know ppl sometimes get delayed reactiosn and im scared mine will hit on the plane. i already have major problems flying so i dont know what i will do. i havent even eaten otu once on this trip becaue im so anal about being gluten free but i took a chance and now im screwed.......

anyone have any good advice/thoughts....

thanks

Jess

I am sorry you got glutened last night. You never know, it was a tiny amount. It is impossible to say if you had your reaction, or if it will get worse. I wished I'd know. I find those reactions are so totally unpredictable, you never know what will happen from one glutening to another.

I really hope you'll be fine on your flight.

Jess--you poor little thing :(

I'm sorry your post got temporarily lost, and by now you're on your way home. I hope that you didn't get any sicker--I would have done what you did anyway. Take whatever you need to to get home. I would have been popping Immodium!

Let us know how you made out--then all about the wedding :D

thanks guys. havent left just yet. we have 5 hours left in the hotel until we leave. they extended our check out time because of what happened. i feel sort of weird- nauseous and bloated stomach but not super ill as most people describe when they eat gluten. im hoping last nights bad bout of nausea is my reaction and that i wont be majorly sick in the next 24 hours. i dont get back until 5pm thursday night. i'm going to try my best to stay positive, think about seeing my puppy who i miss so much and hopefully get through this easily!! i hate gluten!! who puts wheat in chocolate sauce anyways??!!

thanks carla! im sort of embarrased that i didnt eat out but im just scared to do it. i brought a hot pot, and they gave me a fridge and amicrowave. i brought pasta, bread and snacks adn then went to the local health store and bought cheese, tomatoe sauce, more bread, veggies etc.... we had this room where we could go and get free happy hour and breakfast so i would take fruits and veggies from there as well. i used the hotpot to make pasta, rice quinoa etc... and had sandwiches for lunch. i took a chance by eating the strawberries- something iw ouldnt normally do but they were sent up as a gift with a bottle of champagne.....

i'm not sure if hte symptoms i had are it- im scared ill get a big reaction in the next 24 hours :(

Sometimes I work myself up to a horrible state when I know I've had gluten. Just try and relax, have medicine nearby, and try not to worry. I usually only get the gas and bloat when I get glutened...which I am suffering through right now (see my post)...so I feel your pain :)

Hope the flight goes well!!!

so now i have really bad pain, sort of like period cramps, very low, under my belly button in the pelvic region. could that be a delayed gluten reaction stomach ache or are stomach aches not usually that low??? so weird and not sure what it is... i also feel like i cant go to the bathroom easily so maybe it could be constipation which i dont think i ve ever had b4

hey jess,

did you take immodiums or anything to stop/prevent D? if so, that might give you C.

I hope you feel better soon.

And yes, your picture is beautiful-I can't wait to see more.

Constipation can be terrible. I've only had it once. On vacation too. I used exlax. It really helped but took 24 hours. The pain was excruciatng. Hang in there, this too shall pass. : ) no pun intended.

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Long term recovery

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By marinke · Posted

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      By Baz · Posted

      @DayaInTheSun what were the shortness of breath symptoms for you ? And did they come on all of a sudden or was it a gradual increase in said symptoms?

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      By DayaInTheSun · Posted

      I had shortness of breath so much so I went to a lung doctor. I told him I get short of breath wirh certain foods, he said “Food doesn’t affect hour breathing.” I told him maybe it was an allergy  he cut me off then said “Food allergies don’t cause shortness of breathe.” I beg to differ as soon as I figured out what foods were causing my shortness of breath it went away. I also never saw him again as he was rude, condescending? And refuse to listen to me kept dismissing my problems as “you’re young.” I cut out Soy, dairy, sesame, eggs, and of course gluten. I stopped being short of breath, going on a two years now. No thanks to the doctor I saw. Figured it out on my own.
