As I attempt at doing the gluten challenge after be gluten free since New year's day. I have been aiming on get tested for Celiac panel. Before I decides to make appointment with doctor to take that and I needed to boost my gluten antibodoies again by do gluten challenge as voluntory.
I discovered that once as I ate those bad pizza rolls in attempt to eat some kind of gluteny. two hours later, I was very tired and fatique is so crazy that my brain became foggy. I was cleaning kitchen cabinents and go up and down the little stand. I has to stop and sitting feel so so so tired that I want to lay down but i pushed myself. I guess I pushed myself bit too hard and I became very moody and very impatient at anything that dont go in the way. My mother step in the house from the work saw me and asked me about something. I sorta of snapped at converstation.
My mother was like ...... what the heck is going on... I said so sorry and i decided to stop work and go to my room to just cool down. it did helped bit. Later on, I went back and start finishing cleaning. I yet feel so so tired again and feel like fainting.
Isn't this associates with eating gluten as challenge provoked my behavior to be so anger and grumpy once gluten is back in the system?
I could see huge difference in my behavior and I am wide awake at 2 am with bad heartburn since i has one slice of garlic toast with my dinner since i am try do gluten challenge. two hours later, I feel so tired so i went to bed extra early but now I am up wide awake. its like gluten is giving me some kind of food coma? UGH to that.

Still in process of searching for answers to my symptoms

I was exhausted and stressed during my challenge last summer. I was sleeping 15 hours a day, and could barely drag myself through the day. I also found my gastrointestinal symptoms got worse. I was bad enough after 3 weeks that my doctor told me to stop.in
Call your doctor for advice if it gets too bad. My moods started to improve almost as soon as I went gluten-free.
For me, the positive of the experience was to convince me that I had a gluten problem, and I will never be tempted to eat gluten.
Good luck with the challenge

There is different advice around, but 1 meal is about right.
Hope you get some answers, but do come here with questions, and if you need to rant
