Anyone Feel Worse When They Sleep Late?

I've been finding that regardless of my diet and activities, my stomach seems to be much more tempermental on mornings where I sleep past 9am. Any chance this happens to anyone else? There is a chance other factors are contributing, as my various medicine and meal schedules get thrown off by starting my day later, but for the most part it seems to be only when I sleep late. Is this common? Anyone have any explanations?

Is it that you are sleeping longer when you wake up past 9am? I know that I have to eat frequently. If I don't eat often then I get very hungry and it hurts to eat when I finally do. It takes my body a while to recover when I get to the point of being starving. So, if by sleeping in you are sleeping longer, could that be the case?

If that is not it, then I have no clue other than to say trust your body. It may not make sense, but if you are seeing a pattern, then I would set the alarm for 8:45 and give your body what it needs. I think our bodies are pretty good at sending us signals and even if it isn't convenient it is usually the best thing for us to listen to them.

I have found it helpful to work with my body's natural cycles, rather than try to force it into one which happens to suit my idea of a convenient schedule. I also know that eating too late messes my system up for awhile, and it can be somewhat painful.

Yes, I sleep late on the weekend and was doing so over the holiday, getting more sleep that I needed, but at the same time found without fail that each time I slept in, my stomach was a mess all day. I am definitely considering waking at 8 am everyday and going through the exact same medication and food schedule to make things easier for my body - even though sleeping late is one my favorite things to do.

If you need to catch up on sleep, then try getting to bed earlier and waking up at your regular schedule. :) Of course, I'm not the best example...I am a total night owl...love to stay up late and sleep in late (and pay the price with being tired all the time.)

I've been known to wake up at my usual time, eat something and then turn around and get right back into bed for a few hours if I still need to get some sleep. This seems to work much better for me than disrupting my usual schedule and it also tends to make it easier for me to re-adjust to my regular schedule.

      Symptoms and trying to figure this out

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Also ask for a test of vitamin D levels. I agree with knitty kitty that cyclical Thiamine deficiency may be the cause of your cycle.  Celiac Disease causes multiple vitamin and mineral deficiencies.   Itchy palms can be a symptom of iodine deficiency.  Low iodine levels can lead to dry, flaky skin on the hands and  body due to the disruption of normal skin cell regeneration caused by a lack of thyroid hormone production, which relies on iodine. Other symptoms are   fatigue, weight gain, sensitivity to cold. I take between 600 and 1200 mcg a day Liquid Iodine. It has improved my healing.  Strong Iodine and Lugols Solution are other options.  Start low and build up over time. Between 1970 and 1988 the dietary intake of Americans dropped by 50%. Perhaps this is why some can tolerate the bread in Europe?

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      Be cautious with vitamin D if you are female and post-menopausal.  I had to decrease my D dosage from 4000 IU/day to 2000 IU because of hormonal acne and unwanted facial hair - likely from an increased testosterone level from the D.  Finally relief!  I hope to keep my D level below 50 nm/l now.

      Do you eat processed gluten free foods?

      You may want to wear an N-95 mask to filter out any possible gluten, at least when you handle the flour.

      3 years with Celiac, now I appear fine.

      It sounds like you've been on quite the journey trying to understand your symptoms and diagnosis. It’s great that you’re planning to consult a doctor for allergy testing, as distinguishing between a wheat allergy, celiac disease, or another gluten-related condition is crucial for moving forward. The fact that you’ve tolerated barley and wheat products without recent symptoms might suggest something other than celiac disease, but as you noted, the absence of immediate symptoms doesn’t necessarily rule out potential underlying damage, especially if celiac disease is still a possibility. It’s worth discussing whether you should undergo updated testing, such as genetic testing for celiac markers (HLA-DQ2/DQ8), or even revisiting an endoscopy if appropriate. In the meantime, keep documenting your experiences with food and symptoms—it could provide valuable insights for your healthcare provider. It’s also important to test for other possible causes of your original symptoms, like IBS, food intolerances, or even other autoimmune conditions, to ensure nothing is overlooked.
