Symptoms Of Glutened?

Hello all!

 

So i have been gluten free for about four weeks now and I have a few questions.

I have managed to only Gluten myself about three times.

 

When I do eat gluten, I notice that:

1. Sharp Headache

2. Extreme Hunger for the rest of the day sometimes two days. I could literally eat the fridge. It's like nothing I eat makes me feel full. 

3. Slight Bloated feeling. Facial bloating. 

4. Lethargic feeling  

 

Is this normal? Many of the symptoms posts I find mention a lot of cramping and bowel discomfort, which I don't really experience

 

Yes I have been tested and have Celiacs. .

 

Any confirmation of these symptoms would be great. Thanks :)

Not everyone gets the "classic" symptoms. My most prevalent symptom was psoriasis. Then I found out that my life-long insomnia was a symptom. AND my headaches, AND my frequent hiccups, AND the swelling in my feet. And brain fog? I thought it was the first signs of Alzheimers.

 

Now if I get glutened, I WILL get digestive symptoms. On TOP of all the rest. :angry:

I am still waiting for official diagnosis on Celiac or wheat allergy. However I did want to mention when I first started looking for what was wrong regarding the facial swelling I found this "oral facial allergy syndrome". This gave information on possibly 2 allergies going at one time allergist so far in agreement. I have this week taken dairy out of my diet, as well as wheat and what a difference! Lethargic oh my yes I have that , I also will not eat unless food is put in front of me for years never hungry, but then it is like I can not get enough. Feel as if I am running on empty as I told my Doctor. She will be checking me for thyroid, as well as vitamins, Iron. So far I am extremely low on sodium, Vit D and Potassium.

I glutened myself once at Taco Bell, I couldn't believe how bad I felt! I was sick to my stomach, I felt like I was drunk, I layed on the floor and couldn't hardly move! OMG It was horrid! Then the Brain Fog , and the No energy, I only notice where my cheek bone are , it kinda swells there. But Ohhh my!! I can not believe! How horrid it make me feel!!

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
