Arg! First Definite Glutening Since Dx

I'm 99% sure I got glutened late today. Funny thing is, the only reason I can come up with is that I ate some sliced avocado from a friend's salad from her home. I didn't even think of cc at her house. Otherwise, I've only eaten safe things today (beet greens, poached egg, sunflower seeds...then chicken meat [which is gluten-free and which I've been eating for a week at least] with avocado, mustard [gluten-free], raw sauerkraut [gluten-free], and lettuce.

AHHHHH.

Actually, my stomach is mildly bugged - but I took a three hour nap with horrible nightmares, and I have at least two monsterous canker sores.

Well, not too bad for two and a half months off the evil gluten. Still...I wish I could eat something yummy right now, instead of being pretty sure I shouldn't put anything in this delicate stomach.

Sorry you got glutened. It's unavoidable that it happens sooner or later. I hope you will feel better soon.

I found it to be a bit of a shock, it really hurt when I got glutened after being gluten free for only two and a half weeks. I hope you feel better soon.

Oddly, it turned out to the be Amazake Rice/Almond shake that got me. I'm not sure it was gluten, though. They don't make anything with gluten in it - so I don't know how that would be it. But the next day I had ONE SIP of another one I had - and right away was covered in canker sores. I felt like I had been MSG'd. Thankfully, just one sip and I felt better w/i a half hour or so.

Oh well. I won't be drinking those anymore. I'm waiting for my food panel to come back, so maybe it was something else.

bully, what is amazake rice/almond shake and what is in it? I was going to suggest it was maybe the sourkraut. If you have MSG reactions chances are you'll react to aged or fermented foods. It usually goes hand in hand.

Interesting. I've been ejoying the sauerkraut for a few days w/o reaction. I do CRAVE it, which is odd.

The rice/almond shake has: brown rice, almonds, almond flavor, and brown rice syrup - but it is claimed to be gluten-free, and I've not had a problem with it before. They also make one called Tiger Chai, which I do have problems with, though more from the tea/spices on my empty stomach. This time it was more canker sores and amazing yuckyness.

I'm not sure. But since I wasn't eating any grains at all and the rice shake is based on grains, it was really just a treat anyway.

I'll watch the sauerkraut - do a test. All it has in it is cabbage and sea salt, but obviously it has been fermented. I'll eat a bunch of it for dinner and see what happens. Hopefully nothing!

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
