Kitchen Sink CC?

[CharlesBronson]

Hello

Is it possible to get cross contamination from the kitchen sink? My partner rarely eats gluten but sometimes washes dishes with gluten on them in the sink, but never with my dishes. I always do mine separate with a separate sponge/water/etc. The drying towel is shared though. 

Ate something during the first week of January and I've been sick since. My bathroom hasn't been normal the entire time so I'm wondering if I'm being contaminated somehow. 

Exhausted.

This is not likely at all from the kitchen sink. I suggest to either look for other areas where contamination could happen or your symptoms might not be related to contamination but something else.

I agree with @docaz , highly unlikely to get cross contamination from washing dishes in the same sink. 

Keep in mind that no every reaction you have is from gluten. Many celiacs have issues with other foods that don't contain gluten or perhaps if it's gluten it is another source. Common problem foods for celiacs seem to be oats,corn and dairy.

My husband and I share a sink for washing dishes, although I use my own dish brush and dish towel.  No problems here.

Thanks everyone. I'm thinking I'm really sensitive to glutamate as well, and that my GABA/Glutamate balance is all over the place too. 

My gut and brain just won't get along...
