Got Glutened

I have some of the symptoms that I get from getting glutened: muscle and joint aches, fuzzy brain, insomnia (but not the usual digestive issues). However, I don't know what I ate that did it. Can cc build up over time to a point that it bothers you? The only thing I ate that was new was cadburry cream eggs. Now that I think about it I don't know if it is gluten free, but I feel like I checked last year (yes, I know i should check every time). My brain is fuzzy to the point I don't really remember what I ate yesterday (much less what I did) so I can't provide a list. I also realize as I write this that I'm not really sure what the point of the thread is, but I blame the fuzzy head for that. <_<

I just read a post yesterday about Cadbury creme eggs causing someone else a similar glutened reaction.

Then I read about Hersheys having caused reactions similar to CC for several others.

Just wanted to let you know others have had it too.

It can take a few days for the reaction to build up. When my allergist first put me on the elimination diet he told me to make sure that I only added stuff once a week for that reason. It sounds like those eggs are a problem for you. I haven't had one in years because I reacted to them also.

      Abscesses on legs

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the gluten-free community! It’s great to have you here. While gluten sensitivity or celiac disease can indeed cause skin issues, such as dermatitis herpetiformis (a blistering rash), abscesses in areas like the lower buttocks or thighs are less commonly linked directly to gluten. However, chronic abscesses could be a sign of an underlying immune or inflammatory condition, which might be worth discussing with a healthcare professional. Some people with gluten-related disorders also experience secondary issues like bacterial overgrowth or immune dysregulation, which could potentially contribute to recurrent infections. It’s always a good idea to explore all possible causes, including gluten sensitivity, with your doctor. In the meantime, keeping a food and symptom diary might help identify any patterns. Wishing you the best on your health journey!

      You say you have gluten sensitivity? Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or do you refer to NCGS?

      Abscesses on legs

      By plumbago · Posted

      Hi there, Can you describe them a little more? Do they ooze? Do they itch? Do they spread like a rash or appear like a "boil?" Has a doctor / dermatologist looked at them? Are they big? Do they seem like they could get infected if not careful? Do they disappear? (You say you get them "2/3" months, assuming you meant "2 to 3" - so have the ones that came 2-3 months beforehand disappeared?) Have you noticed what triggers them? Etc. Welcome!

      Hello, gluten free community! Thank you so much for welcoming me into your space. I'd like to ask if anyone has had a similar experience. 5 years ago, when I was 26, I started getting abscesses on my lower buttcheek every 2/3 months. There have been a lot of them in the past few years! Now for the last year or so, I keep getting absesses on the back of my thighs. I read online that gluten sensitivity can cause skin issues, and I read that it can cause perianal abscesses, but I have not seen anything about abscesses in other locations--has anyone else had this experience? Could this be gluten-related? Much love

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      Scott, I know full well that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and gluten sensitivity is not. And I agree that there is inconsistency in the use of the terms. But my contention is that "gluten intolerance" should not be used of NCGS since "gluten sensitivity" is actually found in the gluten disorder known as Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity and, therefore, "gluten intolerance" should be reserved as a common/nonmedical equivalent for celiac disease. It also seems to me that "intolerance" implies something more severe than does "sensitive". And it just seems to me that, though there is still a lot of inconsistency in the use of these terms, there is a movement toward using "gluten intolerant" to refer to celiac disease rather than NCGS. But that is just my opinion and perhaps, to be honest, a bit of a personal crusade. Actually, we would all be better off if we quit using the those informal terms "intolerance" and "sensitivity" and just speak of celiac disease and NCGS.
