Glutening symptoms


FayeBr

Recommended Posts

FayeBr Apprentice

Hi. Nearly three weeks ago I was glutened. I haven’t done this in a while now. And the symptoms have been pretty awful as you’re all probably aware of. Migraine, pain in neck and shoulders, flu like symptoms, tinnitus, loss of feeling in legs and hands, fatigue, tummy troubles, rashes, brain fog, muscle twitches and lots more. I was expecting to feel a bit better now but I’m still having symptoms nearly three weeks later. I’m flying out on holiday in 2 days and was hoping to be better for that. I’m just wondering if it is normal to last this long for others, and be this intense? I’ve struggled to work and function. I was diagnosed 3 years ago now and can’t remember being this bad for quite some time. Great joy! 😊

Oh and I have MS also and a glutening seems to trigger that too. Numbness in legs. Pins and needles. Struggle to walk etc.Great joy again 😊

It's probably too late for this article, but it may be helpful going forward:

   It sounds like you are super sensitive, so recovery could take several weeks.

The best airline to fly is United. I told them I was Celiac and they gave me a bar of crispy chocolate with no dairy. The worst airline is Swiss Air. First off I had broken my wrist in two places and they threw me off the airline. I had go back to a doctor in Luzerne, Switzerland, to get a permit to fly. Now of course, the Swiss are known for their chocolate and it's filled with cows' milk. They are the rudest, most dishonest airline ever. I have been to Switzerland twice now and will never return. I am also a Type I Diabetic and that will kill you if you don't count carbohydrates. The best granola is "Purely Elizabeth." There are no oats, which I can't have and will never eat oatmeal. These are tiny bits of nuts, not peanuts because they are a legume and they off my list. I don't drink beer because of the barley  and whey. 

Again, Swiss Air is the worst! I think I lost 20 pounds on that trip along with a broken wrist.

 

Hope this helps. Dorothy

      Im sorry I didn't read until just now, thankyou.its pretty scary because again as I keep stating down played because of what im currently going through and validated by you guys, thank you very much for that because this is mentally challenging especially when asking, begging for medical help.In that note, I looked at my next appointment with gi whose my "new care",i thought. I had  scheduled appointment in March zoom call just to be dump, it was CANCELLED on their part! My appointment isn't there anymore! I do have appointment with Mayo clinic Tuesday on the phone. I also did talk to our local representative in Stanislaus office this past Friday, yesterday and ( Justin) thinks he knows about celiac disease. I don't think he understands because he told me he knows all about celiac! Well Justin why am I dealing with this bs in your county? Hintz the reason why I feel the need to go to city hall meeting yet I  don't have the medical  support....

      I would not eat it. Some people are more sensitive to small amounts of gluten than others. Until you know how sensitive you are It is probably best to be extra careful. Is this a crustless pizza?  I looked on the Papa Murphy website, clicked on nutrition and filtered by “avoid gluten”. The only pizzas that it said were gluten free were crustless slices.

      Has anyone had a reaction to gluten free pasta ?  I made ground beef pasta and gluten free sauce and I'm having every symptom there is.  Nausea ,  constipated,   burning pins and needles, anxiety...etc   lots of pain 😞 headache 😭  Does this sound familiar?   I'm literally bed ridden.

      Thank you for your reply.  I read the same thing about distilled water.  Oddly, drinking that has not caused any sort of reaction in my gut.  Nothing I can hear and feel anyway.  🤣  With that said, I have also switched over to spring water for drinking.  My traditional go to grocery store charges the exact same thing ($1.39) for a gallon of pre-bottled spring, distilled, or RO water.  The manual gallon refills of RO water have an attractive price of $0.49 per gallon, provided you use your own container.  Knowing it causes major bubble gut (and likely other issues) for me, I am avoiding all RO water moving forward.  In fact, I will gladly drink tap before RO water. Here is what Google says when searching "European study regarding reverse osmosis water". --Begin quote: European studies indicate that while reverse osmosis (RO) is highly effective at removing contaminants, it strips essential minerals (calcium, magnesium) and creates low-mineral, slightly acidic water.  Research suggests this may have long-term health implications, such as mineral deficiencies, while also negatively affecting the sensory quality (taste) of water. Key Findings from European Research & Reviews: Health Concerns: Epidemiological studies in Europe have associated low-mineral water consumption with increased risks of cardiovascular disease, cognitive decline, and reduced intake of essential nutrients. Mineral Depletion: RO systems can remove up to 95%+ of solutes, including minerals that are vital for health. Sensory and Quality Impact: Studies show that reducing the mineral content (TDS) of water makes it taste bitter or flat, with optimal, "fresh" taste found in water with a TDS between 190 and 350 mg/L, suggesting post-RO remineralization is necessary for better quality. Regulatory & Safety Context: While not banned, European regulations under the Drinking Water Directive emphasize the importance of mineral content, and countries like Germany often favor alternative treatment technologies that retain minerals. Industrial Application: In Europe, RO is widely accepted for industrial applications (e.g., food, beverage, pharma) due to its high purity output, but it poses challenges like membrane biofouling. Environmental Impact: RO is recognized to use more energy and waste more water (up to 15% more) compared to conventional treatment methods, raising environmental concerns in some municipalities.  Recommendations: Due to the loss of minerals, many experts recommend remineralizing RO water before drinking to improve taste and nutritional value.  --End Quote

      I've heard RO water is bad, too.   Distilled water has all the minerals distilled out of it, so it will pull minerals out of your bones, too.  I only use distilled water to fill up my clothes iron so it won't get mineral deposits inside and quit working. I drink mineral or spring water.
