He has been complaining of a stomachache for the past day. He hasn't had one at all since going gluten-free up until yesterday. He did have ice cream out (Graeter's) and DD threw Fruit Loops at him (she is 4) and 1 got in his mouth, so there are a couple of things that could have done it. Is there anything that he can take to help him feel better? He is complaining of a crampy type stomachache. He is 10 years old.

TIA!

I wish I knew of a mircle cure after being glutened. I try and get lots of rest, drink water and eat bland comfort foods.

Sorry,

Hez

A heating pad might provide some comfort. And I second the water suggestion. Maybe Pepto-Bismol if that has helped him before?

Thanks guys!!! I have never tried Pepto, but maybe I will give it a try. He is drinking lots of water. He was feeling better earlier today and then had some applesauce for lunch, along with some gluten-free mac & cheese. Now he says it hurts again. I am going to eliminate the applesauce for a few days (he normally eats a ton of it) and see if that is it. If not, it may be the dairy. :( He hasn't seem to have had a problem with dairy in the past, even the past few weeks he has eaten and drank tons and has been fine, so I think that is unlikely. Maybe it is just that he was glutened. I just thought it was odd that he was feeling better and then is now worse again after eating bland stuff.

I will give the heating pad a try, too!

I find that when I get glutened, I react to EVERYTHING for a few days, regardless of how I normally tolerate it. Especially other starches, but it goes away. Hope he feels better :)

I agree, after I am glutened no matter what I eat it goes through me :angry:

I'm all for hugs :D

However also respect his space, some of us get a bit funny about being touched or too much attention when glutened.

My fav comfort food is homemade chicken soup with cabbage, leek and celery gradually getting thicker over 3 days.

Sorry to hear he isn't feeling well. Maybe since he is young he will recover faster than we do. I don't know if this applies to gluten, but hopefully. :)

my daughter is six and when she gets accidentally glutened, pepto bismol chewables and liquid benedryl are our friends. (the benedry is for the hives she gets from head to toe). also, I make her sip on room temperature water, not cold water as it can aggravate cramping, and stick with very bland foods or no food if she's not interested in food at all. She seems to really like EnerG's gluten-free crackers when she's been glutened.

I always react to dairy when I am glutened so I would stay away from that, BRAT---banannas, rice, applesauce, adn gluten-free toast or gluten-free crackers of the same sort, just very bland food that wont aggrivate the tummy anymore than it already is now. I tak prescription fennergen which is anti-nausea, but that is only because i get SUCH a violent reaction that I am throwing up until i need to go to the ER, so the prescp. stops that.

hope he feels better soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
