Have you heard about the music genre vaporwave? That's how my head felt 10 days ago. Vaporwave is the soundtrack of my gluten brain fog ?

i remember vividly that "zero to hero" song from the disney hercules move was just playing really loud in my head for NO reason, and i had diarrhea, it was uncomfortable, i was still very sleepy. haven't watched that movie since.

come to think of it, it's exactly like back to the future when marty puts the headphones on george while he's sleeping except instead of an alien its poop

Darth Diarrhea from planet Toiletan.

I never had any brain symptoms. They came post-diagnosis when I got glutened. First time I got glutened it was sunny outside and I was sitting on the bus looking out the window feeling as I was in Miami Vice with my head wrapped in cotton.

I'm not so sure it is the brain. The gut is capable of sending signals to other parts of the body just like the brain. i mean if you think about it the food-center is the core of every living thing on earth is it not? not everything has a brain but everything has a stomach or something like a stomach

Update 1 year later. Yes, it was gluten, but most of it was Burnout syndrome. Still struggling with some lingering symptoms but feeling much better. 

To all of you stressed people out there: calm down and make lifestyle changes before you end up like me. And if its possible, find a new job.

BuddhaBar, I came across this thread while searching online for celiac insomnia (having also scared myself stupid by finding out about fatal insomnia) and it did bring me some piece of mind as it so closely matches my own experience. I know this thread is old now, I hope you're doing well, and thanks for posting your experience.

      That's great news, @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour.  And you might find that if you do have asthma, keeping your reflux under control may help, if my experience is anything to go by.

      Quick update I ended going to a clinic they heard me wheezing and gave me a steroid shot I’m feeling much better now and I’m planing on getting reevaluated for asthma as the clinic doctor is thinking it might be that based on how I reacted to the steroid. But he couldn’t diagnose.  thanks again to everyone that applied (still seeing the gastrointestinal doctor too!)

      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.
