It's The Brain Fog

Well everyone, I have done it again! This time, I pinned spam here on the board. Yep, I read it, and just went ahead and did it without it even registering. Just yesterday, my husband and I were shopping, and I had so much trouble understanding a somewhat complicated transaction (a return/discount/account opening/re-purchase) that I embarassed myself. By the time the whole thing was completed, I was sweating and said to my husband--could I have been any stupider? I mean, I know I should have followed the whole thing--we're not talking rocket science here--but it just lost me. So, I say to all of you reading the board today, I'm sorry--I dropped the ball. Ever since my last gluten CC reaction 3 weeks ago, I am having a tough time snapping back--both physicaly and mentaly :( .

It happens... can you unpin it? I do not know what powers Scott gives out to his moderators, but I think ifyou can pin you can unpin with IPB.

Patti, please look at it in context! No harm is done. I have done far far worse things when glutened, like telling my boss the truth! (anyone else done this?)

Lets step back an I'll tell you how I nearly killed myself ....

So I walk out and leave my keys and the door is an enormous secutiry door. So instead of the sensible thing (breaking a small window on my back entrance or asking my neighbours to climb off thier balcony onto mine) I can't cope with talking to people so I climb around the outside of the 5th floor building on a 2" ledge ...

Of course just at the point of no return I get scared and Im stuck there for 1 hour!

All of this to avoid having to talk to someone!

Now what was the problem again? It will look a lot smaller when you are feeling better, ask your DH for a cuddle!

Okay, I think you win gfp. But I do understand why you did that. That brain fog is really horrible and insidious. I'm coming off of a glutening myself. When glutened, I avoid people to the point that I don't even come here! And this is a safe zone!

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
