so yes im not sober so im not positive if i am having a gluten reaction or not, but im trying to figure it out if i am because i was the most carefull today then i have litteraly ever been when it comes to cc/ what im eating/ what personal products i use. So about 5 minutes after smoking my medicine *yes its medicine- its perscribed by my doctor for back pain* my stomic made a wierd dropping feeling that made me hit the floor *yes i know im so dramatic* then i got back up and my left side has made wierd feelings and slight pain every once and a while, could my mind just be making up stuff because im intoxicated and its subcochisly thinking about it so its making it happen or could this acually be a gluten attack- i would normal judge by how bad my brain fog is but seeing as im not sober i cant really make that judgment

edit-- also very bloated

Again I ask, Are normal rolling papers invovled? Because the mainstream ones, zigzag, Tops, etc are made from Wheat and give me gluten reaction.

Rizla's are gluten-free.

I smoke, daily, and have never had a problem. I also use a pipe or a bong and have never even thought of wiping the mouth peice first hmm.....

that's also interesting about the rolling papers - is there enough gluten in them to have a reaction? My dad will only roll, is not a fan of the pipe, so whenever I'm at my folks it's rolled or nothing...are there any papers that are gluten-free?

sorry elonwy - I just realized you stated Rizla's are gluten-free

i used to smoke every day, years ago. it made my anxiety worse, so i'd say yes it could be an effect of the green. if i smoke or drink now, i feel like crap. especially if i drink. pot just magnifies my anxiety. although last time i did some it was also easier to control the anxiety. weirdly contradictory. but i avoid intoxicating substances now. i don't even like drinking caffeine.

It states it on the UK rizla website somewhere, thats what they are from. Someone else on here mentioned it, and I researched it. I get a definite gluten reaction from zigzag and Topps, worse with zigzag. My belly bloats up like a little balloon. When I'm at home I smoke with my water pipe, but its not really something you can carry with you, and I'm a little social butterfly.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
