Glutening, Food Poisoning Or Both?

I did many things wrong in the past 48 hours. 2 days ago, i made lemon pie, i ate 1/4 of it that same night, other quarter in the morning.. i felt like it was too much but didnt feel bad,  i shared it with my family and wasn't clear enough on how to avoid cross contamination.. then i was angry, because they probably glutened my lemon pie, i really wanted to eat some more so i ate around the parts they probably touched (i ate another quarter).

 

Some hours later i started feeling terrible, that was yesterday and i still feel bad. I know both things i did were bad, i shouldnt have eaten 3/4 of that lemon pie, but it was delicious xD 

 

I dont know how to recognize my glutened symptoms, so i dont know if i was glutened, or i ate too much lemon pie (probably this is the reason) or what, but i dont feel bad enough to go to the ER. 

 

Is it normal to feel bad after eating too much lemon pie?  I feel so dumb..

If I ate that much lemon pie, I might have some issues, too.  But it tasted sooooooo good!   :D

Ha, I thought the same thing Karen did.  But mine would be pecan pie... mmmmmmm.  It really is hard to tell what the culprit is in these situations.  If you really want to be sure, you could make a 100% gluten-free lemon pie after a few weeks has passed, and see what happens when you eat half of it  ^_^  And of course, this time of year is when things like stomach bugs and such are going around, so this may be one of those times where you just never know.  In the future for pies, as long as it isn't runny, you can cut out a portion for the gluten eaters and put it in another container (or vice versa), and hide your gluten-free portion from their thieving grasp.

Laura, that's a very good idea xD i'll make another lemon pie in some weeks and see what happens, but i think it was a combination of both.. i still feel bad! it's been 2 days now.

 

I'll cut out a portion for my family and hide the rest for me xD but i think i wont eat it in a single day this time haha

this thread made me lol !  (sorry you're feeling sick, but) i have done this and then wondered hmmmm?????   and felt pretty dumb.

 

i ate a bunch of cannolis for breakfast one time before a trip to the beach two hours away by car.  not cool.......   (not gluten, either, just a bunch of dairy and soy <chocolate chips yummmmm)  made a car full of people pull into every rest area on the way.

 

but, they were soooooo gooood  :)

I am not sure what to say except for I ate half of a bag of Nothing But Reds Starbursts the other night, but I felt fine. Some people can't handle a lot of sugar at once, might be as simple as that. It's hard not to always look at gluten as the culprit, but I'm going with the others that it was probably the quantity. Hope you feel better soon.

1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2 of the pie.   Yup, I'd feel sick too!  But I've been guilty of eating the whole darn pizza and being sick so there you have it.  My bet that it was toooo much pie.  lol :P

Could be gluten.

 

Could be too much fat.

 

Could be too much sugar.

 

Could be too much pie. 

 

Could just be a combination of any of the above ...

 

If you're still sick in a few days I would lean on the gluten side of things.  I always find that the inflammation lasts a while, whereas eating too much of a good thing will only affect me for a few hours.  YMMV, of course.

i've been feeling bad but I feel worse now, i touched some bread crumbs that were on a bag when i went shopping some hours ago,  forgot to wash my hands, then i had some ice cream and unconsciously licked my finger.. do you think i got glutened? i just licked a tiny bit!! :(  Ive been bloated and in pain these days, now had D (sorry tmi haha) i want to feel better..

No worries on the TMI, we have all heard it all :)  It is possible that you had some cross-contamination, but unlikely.  It is always a good practice to wash your hands before eating especially if you have been out of the house.  Other gross things could have been on that finger besides gluten  :ph34r:  (This is my inner germaphobe speaking, lol).  I try to wash my hands as soon as I get to the house so anything out of the house will be left outside.

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics. I have had Celiac for 40 years. Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything. I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference. After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made...

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
