How I'm I Suposed To Know What To Cut Out If I React To Anything?

I honestly have no clue anymore, one day I eat a type of  food and I'm ok then the next I get symptoms.

 

I though I was doing good with a rice mix with sweet potatoes red pepper,celery,salad and chicken well nope. Now I get bloated from all over my intestine (colon,liver,intestine) I been having this food for a whole week, and another week or 2 prior to that with just salad, rice, chicken and sweet potatoes (only recently added the celery and pepper). And every time I felt good until now.

 

Yesterday I had chicken in olive oil and felt my stomach being acidic.

 

If my colon react 2 or 3 hours after eating that food is it something I ate before? Crap I just dont know anymore and this is so frustration. I feel like im gonna have to try ONE single thing like eating sweet potatoes wait 5hours then eat celeri wait another 5, it's THAT freaking bad.

 

I never though eating could become so mentally challenging even more then physically.

 

Some stuff will give instant reaction then some will give reaction many hours later, how the hell do I know what is safe? It honestly seem like the ONLY thing that i dont react to is almonds or some frozen fruits and eggs, which i bet you won't last.

 

I had no constipation or bloating on my heavy gluten-free diet just no energy, consisting of cereal,bread and rice noodle, now that I added VEGGIES i feel like s$#& AND no energy.

It can be very hard.  You need to figure out how long it takes you to have a reaction.  My son and I are both celiac.  It takes him two days to notice a reaction and I usually notice the next morning.  Then it can be anything I ate the day before.  I keep track with a food/symptom journal.  I keep my diet simple and try to only add one new thing per week.  When I am reacting I keep eliminating and hoping for an improvement.  I usually show an improvement by the next day and again, it takes my son a couple of days.  It helps that we can compare with each other.  It helps to check with manufacturers for some change, for shared facilities, etc.  I also talk with my farmers at the market about their farming practices.  I use that information to decide which things to eliminate first.  It can be really challenging, but worth every bit of it when you finally succeed.  My son is now running when before he couldn't walk around the block without feeling sick.

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
