Body buzzing after being glutened

I was given food that was supposed to be gluten free but turned out was not the case at all. I first noticed about 30 minutes after eating this sensation in my abdomen, legs and feet of vibration or low buzzing sensation. So I asked to see the ingredients of the food and sure enough it was not gluten free and I suspect someone was trying to put me to the test. 

Anyways, do any of you get the buzzing sensations in your body after ingesting gluten?

@AutumnSky,

Yes, I get that vibration, too!

What a sad experience!  I'm so sorry you had to endure such ignorance.  

Things I try to quiet the vibration:

Have a warm cup of Oolong tea.  It has L-Theanine, a natural amino acid, that really helps with relaxation.  Theanine supplements are available.

Take 1000mg of Tryptophan (a form of Vitamin B3).  (Or eat some turkey.)  Take some magnesium and Vitamin B6 Pyridoxine.  These three together are used to make serotonin, the "feeling groovy" neurotransmitter.

 Make sure you stay hydrated!  

I hope you're feeling better soon!

That buzzing was my primary symptom pre-diagnosis. All day, all over my body, face, and head, getting worse all the time. It's pretty freaky when you don't know what it is!

That is an interesting symptom, and I wonder how common it is?

      Being a burden to family/friends

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another. If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on. They're just not ready to learn that lesson...

      I’m so confused…

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start...

      Recipe Apps?

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances. It's a web site but there's also an app.

      OTC pain reliever that are gluten-free and corn free??

      You could try white willow bark, but make sure it's in a safe dosage range. Herbs aren't regulated the way prescriptions are. White willow bark works a lot like aspirin but is often milder on the stomach. I used to use Nature's Way white willow bark. I was told it was corn free at that time. Double check with the manufacturer to make sure it's free of...
