Don't You Hate It When...

You get that familiar stomach pain, then the bloating.......and you start to feel tired and confused.....

and you know you ate only food made by yourself, from fresh ingredients......but you realise that you just touched paper bags with sandwiches and cakes in them and a "for certain" gluteny table top, then ate your safe "finger foods" without washing your hands....

 

Sitting here in pain, wondering if I just glutened myself, or if it is just possible that the symptoms I am feeling are from the fact that I forgot to take my digestive enzymes when I ate my home made nut/seed bars.

Time will tell.

Woe is me. :-(

 

Oh, and edited to add: The irony of this is that is that this was at a meeting I had arranged with my brother, to tell him he should get tested for celiac - ROFLMAO

Huh. You have the same screen name (minus the numbers) and I've never seen it anywhere else. :)

Most of my days have been that way lately. Like thinking and doing just take too much effort. It does not bode well for my winter as it definitely gets worse in the winter. *sigh*

Nope, not me. But I just had a look and it's my kind of thing, I am already VERY frugal......not much there that I don't already do, lol, but always eager to find something new.

Well, so far I'm so bloated I've had to change my clothes, pain is bad,  burst into tears when my hubby arrived home (no reason!), burnt the dinner and walked into the door frame - so, it's a glutening then. Doh!

 

Lesson learned - wash my hands before eating-every time.

Oh dear! I hope you're feeling better soon! Like any one of those symptoms aren't bad enough on their own....but then to walk into the door frame along with it. Goodness.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
