Glutened from rice cakes--I hate the unhinged anger.

The Quaker ones. They're not certified. I ate literally an entire sleeve of the caramel ones. When I got the trademark migraine the next morning, I knew I screwed up. 

I had joint pain last night (day 2) and today is day 3 and I'm so freaking irrationally angry. I don't always get the anger symptom but i hate it. I am usually the picture of composure and go with the flow and calm and happiness. It reminds me of how I used to feel all the time before diagnosis. Negative and angry and the smallest things would set me off. I feel so much shame about knowing I used to feel/act like that all the time. I know it is the gluten and it will go away but I just hate it SO MUCH.

I have the Celiac gene from my father. It runs heavy on his side of the family. He is one the nastiest, angriest, most negative people in the entire world. He would never entertain the idea that he has Celiac though, he doesn't think it's real. 

Angry outbursts were one of my 7 year old's biggest symptoms. She turned into a tyrannical demon who would scream and throw things and slam doors.

I feel you regarding the joint pain and anger. I have to work so hard to keep my emotions in check when I am badly glutened. And I get irrationally angry at myself when I let my guard down and try something new and get glutened yet again.

High histamine levels can cause irritability and mood swings.  

Histamine N-methyltransferase regulates aggression and the sleep-wake cycle

This article discusses symptoms and disorders associated with Histamine Intolerance.

Histamine Intolerance Originates in the Gut

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8069563/

And another article suggests things to help lower histamine levels...

Histamine Intolerance—The More We Know the Less We Know. A Review

And...

Diamine oxidase supplementation improves symptoms in patients with histamine intolerance

And...

Antihistaminic action of (--)-trans-delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol

And...

Vitamin insufficiency can cause aggression...

Thiamine and benfotiamine counteract ultrasound-induced aggression, normalize AMPA receptor expression and plasticity markers, and reduce oxidative stress in mice

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30817932/

Supplementing with the B Complex vitamins is beneficial while the intestinal villi are healing and aren't able to absorb essential nutrients.

      Anybody have issues with popping corn kernels and cross-contamination?

      I'm wondering about popping corn kernels - the kind you make with an air popper or on the stovetop (not microwaved popcorn or pre-popped and bagged stuff). I know these kernels are naturally gluten free, but I can't help but wonder about the risk of cross-contamination with gluten, either in the growing stage or during processing. So, I'm curious...

      Canker sores

      i used to get cold sores frequently before I went gluten free. Then I only got them when stressed. Then I cured my gut dysbiosis, and haven't had one in 20 years.

      Pear Bread

      To me, this bread is pretty special. The first time I tried adapting it I used a commercial gluten-free flour blend and it was good, but when I experimented using individual flours I tried the almond flour and it took it from good to special. I add walnuts or pecans to a lot of my desert bread recipes but I haven't tried nuts with this one. I would guess...

      Sorghum, Kale and Roasted Cherry Tomato Salad

      It's kind of funny that before my celiac diagnosis I did a lot more "functional eating" where I just needed a meal and wasn't so worried about how interesting/delicious it was, just needed to eat something. After my diagnosis I've become a dedicated cook and I am very tuned into flavor and novelty. In answer to your question, I find the recipe very forgiving...

I add walnuts or pecans to a lot of my desert bread recipes but I haven't tried nuts with this one. I would guess that adding either of them would result in the whole being less than the sum of the parts because the almond and other nut flavors would be competing. I wouldn't want to add almonds because of the texture. But you never know until you try. Have not tried cinnamon in this recipe. I imagine it would work. As I modified this recipe from the original, I reduced the sugar. The posted recipe is what I currently use. You are right that the pears bring a little sweetness to it.

After my diagnosis I've become a dedicated cook and I am very tuned into flavor and novelty. In answer to your question, I find the recipe very forgiving for trying add-ins. I've supplemented the greens with green onions, bell pepper (any color), celery leaves and stalks, and fresh parsley. Sometimes I throw in pepitas (pumpkin seeds), craisins, walnuts and/or sunflower seeds. One thing I tried that didn't really work was currants. I think that maybe it's because they are too small and too sweet. I haven't experimented with cheeses beyond the 2 in the recipe. I would guess that grated hard cheeses would work, medium hard cheeses (like swiss or cheddar) might work, and soft cheeses would not.

      Pear Bread

      That actually sounds really nice. Pear bread feels like one of those things that would be soft and a little sweet without being too heavy. I like the idea of using fruit like that instead of just relying on sugar. It probably makes it feel more fresh and homemade. Have you tried adding anything like cinnamon or nuts to it, or do you keep it simple?
