Absolutely!!

That's one of the symptoms that led me to find out I was gluten intolerant. It happened mostly when I had some rye bread. Even one slice would make me thirsty within an hour, probably like 20-30 minutes. It would last for an entire day, and no amount of water would relieve the thirst. Not even 12 full glasses, which was about as much as I could drink.

That's weird because I've had a very dry mouth since I went on the gluten-free diet! Always knew I was backwards! :blink:

Yea--gluten does make me thirsty. The first couple of months gluten-free, I was thirsty all the time.

The last time I was really sick because of gluten (last August) I was so thirsty for about 24 hours. I couldn't stop drinking water. The extreme thirst was my first clue that I'd been glutened.

Yes, it's with me, too. With us during the training drinking is allowed, but not during the belt tests. And I always tell my students to train for that. They look even more strange at me, when I drink during training, because I was glutened. But I'm incredible thirsty then, too. And my mouth is so dry, I can't speak to explain the exercises anymore. :blink:

Dry mouth seems to be one of my first signs of gluten contamination. It does make it difficult to carry on a conversation :lol: It sounds funny when I speak.

I have been thirsty all the time for the past three years. I was just diagnosed with celiac disease about 6 weeks ago, and the thirst has subsided some. Seems to be getting better each day. I had mono about 3 years ago and never really recovered. One of my mono-like symptoms, in addition to fatigue and headaches (the primary problems), was thirst. I often wake up feeling hung over. I feel better after a couple of glasses of water. I am hoping that all of my mono-like symptoms are gone after a few more months going gluten-free.

      I would like to say you saved me. I’ve been so sick the last few years, celiac since 1997. And reading your post about the other glutens/grains that can be sensitive to celiacs, is the only thing that has ever helped me. Since going off a carbohydrates/grains, even gluten-free ones, My chronic pain is  85% better. I’m actually losing weight which, that’s a long story but was impossible. I definitely am like you. Thank you so very much for posting. For some of celiacs I do believe this is the magic key.

      I 100% believe if you were sticking gluten items, especially flour, and breathed it in you could be glutened. I’m a celiac for almost 30 years. For the first ten years as a celiac I’d help my polish family make pierogis at Christmas time. I would only cook them at the stove and I didn’t touch anything with my hands using spoons. But the flour is in the air. And I’d get violently ill for 1-2 weeks after the last few years I did it. Wearing a back is a great suggestion and washing your clothes and showering when you get home. Good luck. And I’m so sorry your parents are emotionally supporting you.

      Have you had your thyroid checked? I was diagnosed at 24 with celiac. Lost my period permanently at 32. Found out six months after I lost my period that I had 1 ovary with 1 follicle. I had a child already but wanted more. Ended up having two more children with one ovary and one follicle. But my doctors theories are if I would have gotten my thyroid checked sooner and fixed through medication, maybe things would look different. Who knows. I only share my experience so you question your doctors and advocate. Always see an endocrinologist for thyroid care fyi. Actually always see the specific Dr for your specific ailments. I’d also consider seeing a gynecologist that specializes in female hormones/menopausal symptoms. Early ovarian failure happens in celiacs so I read  on the celiac disease center in Chicago website.

      This. Scott said it beautifully. Document and start a trial gluten-free diet. I can also recommend an inflammation dietitian I saw last summer if interested. She’s the only one who helped me on a path to healing through an elimination diet. Which is tricky with your little one. But I completely trust her, she’s very expensive though. I figured out I’m sensitive to so many things and follow a gluten-free diet religiously. Just had an upper and lower endoscopy/colonoscopy and zero signs of celiac disease so they said. I’m a celiac since 1997. But my 33 yr old daughter is very gluten intolerant since 20 yrs old.

      I so appreciate you talking about this. Honestly I’m so sick the most part of the last 15 years, I’m going to cross reference your list with my own. Celiac since 24 yrs old diagnosed in 1997. I just saw a specific celiac GI specialist at the celiac disease center in Chicago and when I told her all the food reactions I was having she said she believed me but there was no clinical evidence to support my reactions(I felt so unseen, she recommended I see a gut psychologist, what the heck). I react with severe body aches to bloating and dizziness to exhaustion:  most lectins except berries and low lectin veg, no eggs, no nightshade veg, no dairy, all carbohydrates including no gluten-free carbs or grains, though a little coconut flour seems ok now, need to test other non grains, certain alcohols that say gluten-free but looking into their process further I get horribly sick if distilled through a gluten grain example Costco vodka….. Because I had an upper and lower GI in 1997(I was 24 and 84#s) and my GI doc came back with celiac disease, this new doc suggested I may not be a celiac. Is running some blood test. Omg. I can’t even. I’m so beyond frustrated.
