I knew someone once who had Raynaud's syndrome, I think it was called. Her fingers and toes would turn cold and blue sometimes due to constriction of the blood vessles. I don't think it was associated with eating fruits and vegetables though. I think getting too cold sometimes triggered the episodes her. I know this sounds weird but could you possibly be reaching into a cold freezer/fridge before you eat the fruit/vegetables and maybe that and not actually eating those foods is causing the symptoms.

I have no idea. It sounds very strange. I just thought that I wiould mention that my friend with Raynaud's had similar symptoms.

Dear sickchick,

Have you been on a lot of antibiotics, hormones, or steroids? You may have a yeast overgrowth. I have a bad one. Carbohydrates can make symptoms worse due to the yeast being fed by them. Do you have a white tongue a lot? How about strange rashes that pop up and then disappear out of nowhere? Raynaud's is something I have as well.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

Alex that was my first thought also, that syndrome fits her description to a T. But it is something that should be noticed at other times also. My and my DS's Raynauds and livedo reticularis resolved after a few months gluten-free.

Sickchick, you should have an evaluation and testing done by an allergist. Although having said that if you have not been gluten-free very long these effects could be from accidental gluten injested a day or two before you ate the fruit. If you haven't the time or inclination to go to an actual allergist you could try adding in your fruits one at a time in pure form daily for a week starting after you have cleared all the gluten from your diet and life and after your gluten symptoms have resolved.

You might be allergic to citric acid. Does your throat swell?

Oh, actually I do have Systemic Candida. I wonder if it is Raynaud's. I have never heard of that I am going to look it up! B)

thx everybody I was just curious if it had anything to do with Celiac :)

Dear sickchick,

My bet is on the yeast! I have Raynaud's as well! The Candida is really tough to deal with, and causes all kinds of odd symtoms. Many people actually get freaked out when they see my hands. It really scares them that my fingers and hands turn blue. Raynaud's is primarily a circulation problem, and Candida, Celiac, and mercury poisoning all can cause it.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

      @PlanetJanet, Sorry to hear about your back pain. I have three crushed vertebrae myself. I found that a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamin and Pyridoxine (all water soluble B vitamins) work effectively for my back pain. This combination really works without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain meds. I hope you will give them...

      Canned tomato sauce, ricotta?

      Here is the info from their website. If you don't trust them, you may find products that are labelled "gluten-free," but I don't see any reason to believe there is any gluten in them.

      Hi, trents, Thanks for responding! One book I read is called, Doing Harm, by Maya Dusenbery. She has wonderful perspective and insight, and it's all research-based. It's about how women can't get treated. Everyone should read this! I wouldn't mind reading it again, even. She believes that women are so busy taking care of families, working,...

      They say maltodextrin is gluten-free, even if it's made from wheat, because the gluten is processed away. It makes no difference to my body. I still get uncontrollable flatulence and leakage.

      @PlanetJanet, Sorry to hear about your back pain.  I have three crushed vertebrae myself.  I found that a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamin and Pyridoxine (all water soluble B vitamins) work effectively for my back pain.  This combination really works without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain meds.  I hope you will give them a try. Here are articles on these vitamins and pain relief...

      Hi, trents, Thanks for responding! One book I read is called, Doing Harm, by Maya Dusenbery.  She has wonderful perspective and insight, and it's all research-based.  It's about how women can't get treated.  Everyone should read this!  I wouldn't mind reading it again, even.  She believes that women are so busy taking care of families, working, etc., that we are more likely to ignore our pain and symptoms for longer.  Men have women bugging them to go to the doctor.  Women don't have anyone telling us that.  We don't have time to go.  Providers think we are over-emotional, histrionic, depressed, have low tolerance to pain...Men get prescribed opioids for the same symptoms women are prescribed anti-depressants.  My car crash in January 2020 made going to the doctor a full-time job.  I grew up with 2 rough and tumble brothers, played outside, climbed trees.  I was tough and strong, pain didn't bother me, I knew it would heal.  But do you think I could get treated for back pain--as a woman?  I am so familiar now with the brush-offs, the blank looks, the, "Take your Ibuprofen," the insinuation that I am just over-reacting, trying to get attention, or even, "Drug Seeking."  Took almost 2 years, but what was happening was Degenerative Sacroiliitis.  I couldn't walk right, my gait was off, effected my entire spine because gait was off.  I had braced myself with my legs in a front-impact, slightly head-on crash with someone who made a left turn in front of me from the opposite direction.  I finally had SI Joint Fusion surgery, both sides.  It's not a cure. I have given up on trying to get properly treated.  There is so much pain with these spine issues caused by bad gait:  scoliosis, lithesis, arthropathy, bulged disc, Tarlov cysts.  And I can't take anything because of my bad tummy. Not that I would ever hurt anyone, but I can relate to Luis Mangione who couldn't get treated for his back injury. I feel so alone.

I didn't realize it till after I left and went home--MALTODEXTRIN.  I was miserable the whole time. The second gastroenterologist I saw made the tentative diagnosis of microscopic colitis.  Usually occurs in women over 60, I was 59, had been in a crash, (2020) was taking alot of NSAIDS, muscle relaxants.  Had constant diarrhea, gas, leaking.  Unbearable, and I didn't know it was NSAIDS.  I was scheduled for two-way endoscopy, mouth to butt, but they wanted $2,000 up front.  Finally, had a colonoscopy in 2022, 10 biopsies, didn't find a thing!  MC can go into remission, which I was, of course, desperate to do.  No more NSAIDS, tried to cut down on all the other pain killers, everything, chemicals that I knew triggered me.  So, no, they didn't find anything.  So sad that we have to make ourselves sicker and more injured to get a proper diagnosis! Microscopic colitis is being seen concurrently with gluten problems.  MC can be triggered by NSAIDS, SSRI's, all kinds of things. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17227-microscopic-colitis Some links for maltodextrin health effects: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6409436/#:~:text=Altogether%2C these findings show that,the development of intestinal inflammation. https://www.mdedge.com/internalmedicine/article/193956/gastroenterology/maltodextrin-may-increase-colitis-risk
