Gluten free

I ate some gluten free mac and cheese a few weeks ago and did fine. I decided to get it again and about 10 minutes after eating it got sick? Anybody know what could cause that?

You could be reacting (I mean have an intolerance) to any of the ingredients.  Those boxed gluten-free Mac and Cheese products make my kid feel yucky.    She does well with homemade Mac and cheese.

I just thought it was weird since I've had it before.

I am coming to the conclusion that I have thresholds for a number of different foods. I can eat them without consequence sometimes but not other times. If I eat them too often or too much at one time, whatever the offending component is, I get ill. I think I'm seeing this pattern with nuts, dried fruit, cured meats and pickled products for instance. In my case, it's looking like a histamine buildup problem. I'm finding that a lot of foods just don't agree with me like they did when I was younger.

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
