Feeling Sick Today After Eating "gluten Free" Pizza

I was find the first day, but ate the left overs last night. And today I feel real sick. Sick enough to stay home freom the Halloween parade at school. They used preshredded cheese. I was a little worried about that. I also rarely eat pizza, so maybe that is it too. I rarely eat onions and they put onions on. What do I do now to get better? Should I take imodium or let nature work? We went to Figaros in Talent and Stand Stone in Ashland. Both yummy. But I hate being sick after trying so hard to eat gluten free.

It could be the pizza, or you could have just gotten unlucky with a GI bug. Sorry you're sick and missing the parade. That sucks. :(

I usually take Immodium if the D continues more than a few hours. I figure the first round of D is sort of a way to flush out the gluten but a long spell can leave you dehydrated. I also find Pepto-Bismol helpful for nausea. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and help flush out gluten. Switch to broth, bananas, rice, and applesauce (BRAT diet minus toast) until the D stops and your stomach feels better.

      What might this EMA result mean?

      By Toaster · Posted

      I'm looking into it. I have several quite low vitamin results which I believe may be from malabsorption. B12, ferritin, folate, vit d all very low. Re-occuring mouth issues, gut issues.

      Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or are you looking into it?

      Thank you. There is no reference range mentioned unfortunately.

      Welcome to the forum, @Toaster! EMA is a celiac disease specific antibody test. It was one of the first antibody tests developed for celiac disease but it has fallen out of favor in recent years. It is an excellent test but expensive to administer as it requires the use of animal organ tissue (esophagus I think) in order to be run. Since then, a less expensive test known as the tTG-IGA has been developed that essentially accomplishes the same thing. Your test result of 1.24 g/L is meaningless unless you can also supply the reference range values used by the lab. Different labs use different reference ranges for negative vs. positive. There is no standard. The EMA test is discussed in this article along with other celiac disease antibody tests:
