Getting Glutened

I have been a diagnosed celiac for 7 months now and have been clean for 4 months or so, I just outright ate a chocolate muffin that was just a regular muffin that was organic and gluten free (someone put it in the gluten free section by mistake) I am not sure what is going to happen as this is kinda my first real glutened accident. My parents both don't think I have it, what should I look for or watch for for symptoms. At this time is has been 1 he since I are it. I had 3 bites then thought it was too good to be true and it was...

I got glutened yesterday :( and I'm still trying to figure out what it was that got to me.

 

It's my understanding that everyone reacts differently. For me it's intense stomach cramping and pain along with joint pain. Sometimes I get a bit of a brain fog.

 

You could have a bunch of symptoms, or none at all depending on how much your stomach has healed. I keep Pepto Bismol on hand since it really helps to relieve the stomach issues.

 

Good luck! I hope it's not too bad for you.

I'm so sorry you got glutened:( 

I did tonight too (except mine was on purpose)

If you remember what your symptoms were before going gluten-free then you should probably just watch out for those.

Take some Pepto or Tums and just retire for the night.  Hopefully it will pass without too much fuss!

I've read posts by people who had gone on the gluten trial, meaning that they had started eating wheat toast and such daily, but had unexpected reactions. I don't remember what happened exactly, but just that they reacted differently from when they'd had a glutenation from cc. 

 

How are you feeling now by the way?

I read tums has gluten in it.

multiple sources too.

 

I would avoid that.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
