Day 2 Of Adding Gluten In Prep For Test

Well, yesterday was Day 1 of glutening and I had a very dark beer and 6 toll house cookies. My meals throughout the day were healthy because I didn't see the gastro until after lunch and already had fish prepared for dinner. No immediate effects last night.

This morning.....woke up with an intense headache which I still have, sinuses bugging me, sore neck and the 3 usual rashes that I used to get. This sucks .....haven't had a headache in 2 months. Had a bacon, egg & cheese sandwich on a hard roll with coffee and oj....so far no tummy troubles. Double bacon pizza and beer for dinner tonight. I have a feeling I will be on the couch by tomorrow. I slept 9 hours last night and am still tired.

But I want my endo so I will get thru this.:-) Just a temporary glitch.

Hang in there! You'll get through this! I took a nap for the first time since I had the flu (never napped as a child) but haven't seen any other signs of my cross-contaminating dinner last night. Maybe it would help with the issues if you had some probiotics, pill or yogurt form, and make sure to drink a lot of water! Both for the issues and to help offset the alcohol. Only four more days left!

Ate some nice vanilla yogurt. laying off the probiotcs.....I want to walk into the Dr sick:-) Headache still there but not as bad. Had my double bacon pizza with my beer and cookies in a while. Tomorrow is more egg sandwiches, more pizza and Micky D's for dinner. I do eat fruit and yogurt throughout the day though. It is the weekend so I can deal but when work arrives on Monday I warned the hubby this might be bad. He was just happy to see me eat my favorite pizza tonight....downed 6 big slices, crust and all no problem!

      @RMJ it makes sense as it’s something I’ve experienced more than once. Currently 24 weeks and baby is doing well! Will be seeking more medical advice today

      Thank you! This is great information and perfect timing because we have our first appointment for a second opinion tomorrow.

      Bright blood in the stool would indicate bleeding down at the lower end in the colorectal area as opposed to the small bowel below the stomach where celiac manifests damage to the villous lining. Are these blood stools persistent? It's not unusual for this to happen once in a while to most anyone when a small surface vessel breaks, kind of like a nose bleed. As Scott Adams said, you must continue to consume regular amounts of gluten if the specialist will be doing additional testing for celiac disease, which could include an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining.

      Checkouts gluten-free recipes at twww.redstaryeast.com We tried a bread machine years ago and weren’t happy with results. Bread machines have pre-set rise & bake times.  Unfortunately, the program doesn’t adjust to slight differences when measuring, relative humidity or temperature of ingredients & in kitchens.  Lots of efforts for ONE odd- sized loaf that hard to cut into useable slices.  College-aged son found best use for bread machine was as heavy duty mixer that ‘kept dust in the box.’  He would pre-measure ingredients for 2-3 loaves & use machine mix up individual batches.      Since gluten-free bread needs  to rise only once, each recipe of dough went into a loaf pan. Pans sat counter to rise—time dependent of temp in kitchen. Then, baked in oven until he, not machine, decided it was done.     Took ~10 min extra up front to measure & mix additions but adds nothing to rise & bake times.     Loaves are great for slicing (Slice extra before freezing!). One mess to clean up, saves time & energy since you need to bake  as is half as often (If  you plan to bake lots more than bread, opt for KitchenAid/ heavy duty mixer instead.  Cover with dish towel to capture dust!)     Personally, I’m sure I had as a kid since I’ve never been a fan  of bread. .  Have been wrapping corn tortillas around things for 40+ years.  Can still get a dozen 12-pks of tortillas for same or less than price as 1 load of gluten-free bread. PLUS. the tortillas have more nutrients!

      Welcome to the forum. You are lucky because in Korean food, many classic meals such as bibimbap without sauce, barbecue meats and some kinds of soups generally do not have gluten. But it is a good idea to confirm with the restaurant workers for safety reasons. Regarding certain locations, I enjoy going to places such as Plant in Seoul and Sprout in Busan. Moreover, using applications like HappyCow or TripAdvisor can assist you to discover additional choices in the regions you plan to visit. One big tip: it is good to know some important Korean sentences, for example 'I cannot eat gluten' (geulluteuneul meogeul su eopseoyo)  or 'Does this have gluten?' (igeoe neun geulluteuni deureo innayo?) because they can be very helpful. If you are considering getting a local guide, I'd suggest this one https://gowithguide.com/korea They were very helpful when I needed to find places with gluten-free food options because they provide tours tailored to your preferences. Good luck with your travels! 🍻
