Trouble Urinating?

Hello everyone,

I haven't been on in awhile but have just been having a awful couple of days.

Bloating, tired, crying, angry,anxious, sleeping too much or too little, my hair is falling out again and my skin is nice and itchy and has rashes in all the classic areas.

I know it is because I ingested gluten and since going gluten free I have discovered several other food allergies.

Along with all the other symptoms I mentioned above has anyone when there stomache is bloated beyond belief also found that they had trouble urinating? I keep having to burp too and I hear gurgly sounds in my throat. My doctor had given me Flonase for my chronic sinuitis and allergies and I am wondering if that has gluten in it somewhere?

Recently I went to see a neuro because i was having all kinds of muscle spasms and began to wonder if I had MS so they did an MRI that came back fine but I don't know if I am being a hypochondriac anymore or that its just the celiac.

With having cancer, my mom having cancer and then my Dad with Parkinson's I just am waiting for the other shoe to drop again. So I am not sure if I am just over thinking today that it still could be something else or that i just am having an emotional meltdown today.

Well for whoever responds or reads this thanks for letting me vent. I was having such a good run of feeling well that I feel like I took 20 steps backwards.

I'm sorry to hear you are having such a hard time right now. If you have ingested gluten that could also cause the muscle spasms and I get the shakes when contaminated.

And yes, most of us have trouble with bloating. You go quite a while without urinating and then when the gluten starts to leave the body, you are in the bathroom all the time. At least I'm am. But the bloating can be quite hard and painful until then.

I have a big problem burping too. I find that a clear soda like ginger ale, or 7-Up helps with that. I usually keep some on hand.

I sure hope you feel better soon!

Thanks for your response Viola

Actually I get the shakes too so that really makes me feel better to hear that.

Sometimes just having someone validate you makes things seem "normal" or at least I don't feel like I am just going crazy.

Anyhow thanks for your support it has helped immensly

Take care

Abbie

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.
