Glutened And Feeling Down

Hi,

I got glutened sometime this weekend. I still don't know for sure what caused it. Maybe gorgonzola cheese I had on Friday, or shrimp scampi, or chips. Who knows? On Sunday I had "d", that stopped after a few hours. The rest of the day I felt totally exhausted. Today I feel tired, anxious and depressed. It also seems like whatever I eat today I don't feel full. Does this sound like a case of being glutened?

Thanks!!!

It certainly sounds like you could have been glutened. After gettting glutened I try to get some rest (easier said than done), drink lots of water and take Immodium AD for the D. Hope you feel better soon.

If I feel that my intestines have been irritated, I usually take a coupe of pepperment oil pills.

They sooth the stomach and reduce inflammation.

Hi Mindy--that sounds like what happens to me when I've been glutened! I had anxiety and depression before I was diagnosed, and when I get glutened now, it comes back for a few days. Try to get as much rest as you can, drink plenty of pure water, and eat when you feel like it. It will pass :)

I posted a similar thread this morning! Sorry, I should have just come here! I feel exactly the same way every time I get gluten. I don't know why I fell depressed and anxious with gluten, but I do for a couple of days after the physical symptoms pass.

Drink alot of water. It helps flush your system. I know it passes! Feel better!

      Is it gluten?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
