Glutened myself :(

Pretty sure I just glutened myself. Twice!! First let me start off by saying my nausea has finally started letting up. (Clapping excitingly) The first time I felt a problem was last night. About a half hour after dinner. I became more bloated than I already am and I felt a lot of pressure. An hour after dinner I started feeling pressure in my chest and it seemed like I had to take a deep breath just to catch my breath. It let up a bit by bedtime, but I wasn't able to sleep at all last night. I've struggled with insomnia for the past 20 years so I didn't think anything of it until my Trazadone didn't work. Which has never happened. I got a few hours of sleep and when I woke up I had really sharp pains in my stomach and had to rush to the bathroom. It was an unusual amount. I had breakfast today and the same reaction as last night and more sharp pains and diarrhea plus nausea. The common denominator was store brand cooking spray. I used it on the pan I cooked the chicken on and I used it in another pan this morning when I made my eggs. Both pans and utensils were gluten free. I didn't see anything ominous in the ingredients and my gluten-free app doesn't recognize most store brands, so yes, I was playing Russian Roulette. I am trying not to be mad at myself. It was an accident and there is a learning curve. However, I am still irritated because the nausea is going away and I was actually going to leave the house today for the first time in 2 weeks. My son get's married this Saturday and I am desperate to feel better so I can enjoy myself and last the night.

Don't get mad at yourself. Accept there will be some slip ups as you learn the diet. In this case its not certain in any case, could be something else you ate didnt agree with you. Have you checked the ingredients on the spray?  

You can get spray bottles which you fill with regular oil and use those instead. That would remove any doubt:

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat.  In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue.   A wedge pillow will really help with this - or raising the top bed legs with bricks.

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired.  I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years,  I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.
