Glutened at a wedding


Pghceliac

I'm a 30 year old male and was diagnosed with celiac disease 3 years ago by biopsy. Since, I have been extremely careful with what and where I eat as I'm very sensitive. Only a handful of times have I got glutened. However this past weekend I went to a wedding and got it worse than I ever thought possible. Not sure exactly what caused it but its been 3 days and I'm still in tons of pain. It was so bad the next day I went to the ER with a resting heart rate of 120 bpm, usually is high 50's low 60's as I live a relative healthy life style. At the time I didn't even think it was gluten. Had no idea glutening could cause my heart rate to spike but all my blood work was good and they said they couldn't find anything to cause the high bpm. Of course the ER staff didn't think gluten could be the cause. Now a couple days later I have all of the other usual symptoms. Head fog, blurry vision, burping excessively, depression, anxiety, irritability and a bloated feeling in my sternum. This is my first time sharing my experience and I'm doing so to hopefully ease someone else who might feel like this. Here's hoping it passes soon...

Many cases of this in the past few days of people dealing with a recent gluten issues. As normal I can say there are enzymes you take right after you accidentally eat it that can make the symptoms less severe and go away shorter at least gut wise. As for the antibodies your going to have to wait them out. To help with them and address your current issues I suggest upping magnesium and b-vitmains. Drinking plenty of water ,tea, and easy to digest foods. Bone broth is supposed to help if you can drink it.

Mangisum wise depends from person to person and how your gut handles it. But either Natural Vitality Calm starting at 1/4 tsp and upping it slowly to the full dose over a week. this can be a bit harsh on some peoples stomach. If so I suggest Doctors Best also in powder form. These can be dissolved in a drink.

Liquid Health Stress & Energy and Liquid Health Neurological Support....1tbsp each 3 times a day works wonders for the fog, irritability, and neurological issues.

I am so sorry that you are ill.  Celiac disease is like a chameleon.  Symptoms can vary from glutening to glutening in my personal experience.    I hope you recover fast!

      The previous post did not come through right. I wonder if tingling burning feet are part of it.. I'm not sure if it's the med reaction that people with gluten intolerance get or the food we ate  It's frustrating because a person who did not want to admit to himself I had this condition wanted me to eat this chicken sandwich and now I'm stuck with a variety of symptoms plus now I'm hungry on top of it..  I'm new to this so I forget that "one bite" of the wrong thing can hurt us.😔. Do we stop eating if someone exposed us to gluten ??  My stomach is rumbling but my joints hurt ...  It's weird because I can feel the anxiety coming on.  I get joint problems ,  I don't know if anyone ever got hot flashes?? I suppose if it affects people head to toes you can get that too.   It's weird...hard to decipher what is what.   Also how long do I have to deal with this attack??  Makes me feel like not getting up out of bed.  I get too many symptoms which  horrible.  Thank you for your response..

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.

      I wasn’t clear, glucagon and gadolinium were intravenous. I drank about 5 cups of the prep during 45 minutes. I feel very tired now, probably partly because I was nervous, and partly because I had to fast for 6 hours beforehand and wasn’t very hungry when I got home.
