Ugh I Feel Glutened Again


Lister

Recommended Posts

Lister Rising Star

Ok so i just had my lunch/dinner since its 4pm not sure if i should swing another meal later. But ugh i feel so sick like bloated and i already feel like i have to use the restroom and im getting like a sea sick feeling (or another way to discribe it is when your coming up on mushrooms*did these not by choice about 3 months ago my friends put a hole bunch in my orange juice and i never noticed until it was to late* maybe when i think im getting glutend im not maybe its ibs i dont know but this is how i discribe beeing glutened and all i ate was

pork,lettece,carrots,and the crumbs from my lumbarg rice chips- none of these things should even have cc problems. the pork was hormel always tender pork- its on there safe list and i have never had cc issues with the rice chips- i ate them last night just fine, but ugh i feel so sick. So my question is am i acually glutened by on of those things or this hole time when i thought i keep getting glutened its just how my body reacts to food for now?? gah i dont wanna use the restroom since i just ate im afraid it will be D and it will be what i ate :( im trying to get some nutriants in my body

You could be having problems with other foods...not just gluten. The pork is probably *highly* processed and not good for anyone with bad digestive symptoms. That would be my guess anyways. Also did you drink anything?

Lots of meat gets processed. I have problems with regular meat I have to buy the organic stuff from the butcher at Whole Foods. I dont know what could be causing your symptoms but I know if I had eaten that pork and drank gatorade I'd probably be hallucinating right now.

Lister, I've read some of your posts but i can't remember how long you've been on the diet. if it's a fairly recent thing, your system may just not be up to snuff yet. i remember in the couple of months following diagnosis, i just didn't feel well at times (gluten symptoms), and most times, if not all, there was no way at all that i had ingested gluten. i chalked it up to my system's taking time to heal and just tried to eat as simply as possible to make sure. i'm sorry you're feeling bad. :(

Yes, is it only weeks that you're on this diet? It took my son months until he felt better. Also, pork always makes me sick and naseous. Can you stick to bland type foods while your gut is recovering?

Lister - you have mentioned that you had worms in your stools... Perhaps there is a larger problem at hand here. Have you spoken to your GI about issues other than potential celiac? In addition, keep in mind it might take awhile to heal. For nine months or so, all I could consume was veggies and nut butter, basically. Sometimes you need to simplify it as best as you can. And you're working with food daily at work - that could be a huge problem.

Lister,

I've been reading your posts and I can identify with a lot of your symptoms. I had a lot of stomach pain and bloating in the beginning. Along with gluten intolerance I also suffer from IBS. I had no damage to my villi so the doctor suggested more fiber. He recommended Citracel tabs 2 in the morning (they are gluten-free). After my colonoscopy he told me that I have a lot of gas and fiber would make it feel better. It is good for both constipation and diarrhea. I also follow an IBS type diet, sort of. By that I mean I never start a meal with anything but soluble foods, such as banana, mashed potatoes, rice, etc. If you start your day with a soluble food the rest of the day will go smoothly. I am only telling you this because it has helped me. Hope you feel better soon. Keep up the gluten free diet!!

maybe i was wrong about getten glutened also. The symptoms went away after like 20 minutes/30 minutes besides for the head fog, got worse really but i did also smoke some of my medicine so now i cant even tell if im having brain fog or if its just my medicine in my system, i dont know thow its been about 2 hours since i smoked and it usaly only takes me 30-45 to sober up so maybe it is brain fog, but my sides really not bugging me/ well i guess slightly but its not like persistant

"start a meal with anything but soluble foods, such as banana, mashed potatoes, rice, etc." hmm i need to try that, in the morning around 6 my stomic starts to go crazy around 7 i eat a banana every morning and the pains go away for about 3 hours so that makes sense, i just need to start eating something like that before i eat my main course ? hmm ok so i will eat the rice first then the meat and see what happens

perhaps your drugs are cross contaminated.

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.

      Hi all !! Did anyone ever get prescribed methylprednisone steroids for inflammation of stomach and intestines?  Did it work ??  Thank you !!

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?
