I Think I Got Glutened

I woke up with D reminiscent of my pre-gluten-free days. This was worse than milk D, and even worse than soy D. Mouth watering, major pain in the lower abdomen, two rounds of having to run to the bathroom and having to be quite noisy. :huh:

If that wasn't bad enough, I had to run to the hall bathroom instead of the one in my bedroom because that was clogged and since my 2 y.o. was in bed with us he, of course, followed me into the bathroom! <_< Having been recently potty trained, he loves to flush and when he did, of course he had to comment......ugh!

I recall on Monday night that I cut the little guy's glutenous spaghetti with a knife and then mistakenly used it later to cut my own meatballs. Do you think that was enough? I felt kind of ill last night, tired and had a headache. Not quite a migraine (which will probably follow, if I remember the pattern) but a headache nonetheless.

Oh, I'm so sorry you feel so bad! Ugh!

Cutting my meatball with a knife that had cut spaghetti would have been enough to make my feel that sick. I'd bet that's what it was.

I hope you feel better soon!

something else to think of----and I know it sucks to even think about it----but the more I cut out, the more I realized I was reacting to.

What have you been eating now that you have found out about your intolerances?

but yes, the spaghetti part--- that is enough, unfortunately.

feel better!!!!! :)

Well, I *think* I cut out everything. I'm mostly eating salad, baked potatoes, meats, cereal, rice milk, rice pasta.....shoot, if I'm allergic to rice I'm screwed! LOL

I actually don't think it's that. I drink rice milk every day, so I would think I would have reacted long before now.

Even though my Thanksgiving was gluten-free and I know Smitty's in Canmore tried to make it gluten-free, I still got glutened. As that day at the restaurant I had to run for the bathroom, it wasn't total D but it was soft enough. Well, on the way home I started to get DH. Now in time for my Tv interview on Celiac disease today, they got a chance to see a very mild form of DH on me, meaning my whole face is not consumed by it but below my bottom lip is. How nice to look scary on tv.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @science enthusiast Christi! I don't have a problem with disaccharides but I do with polysaccharides and complex carbohydrates which are so common in many gluten free processed foods. Gar gum, xanthan gum, pea fiber, chicory root, inulin etc. All those "prebiotics".

      Hey Celiac friends,  I'm wondering how weird I am. About a year ago, I started getting bloated all the time and having extremely smelly gas. Lots of it. I had to avoid people, keep windows open, etc. It really upended my life in a somewhat horrifying way. I figured out that if I didn't eat any sugar, the symptoms mostly resolved. With more experimentation, I found out that I'm intolerant to any disaccharides (things with sucrose, maltose) and some starches. I've since figured my small intestine stopped making some digestive enzymes. Since Celiac causes the immune system to attack the small intestine, I wonder if I was getting low-level gluten contamination from my environment. (My family eats gluten in our home, and I have to use a shared kitchen at work for lunch.)  I am apparently among the 2% of Celiacs who also have a similar reaction to soy. I've been avoiding both gluten and soy for over a decade now, but sometimes you just get poisoned. For example, I love my houseplants and bought an insect-preventing spray online. After spraying it on all my houseplants, I found out it has soybean oil. Sure enough, two days later I was sick. Soy is such a big ingredient used in everything, I doubt it's possible for me to avoid it completely. Everyone uses lotions with soy on their hands, so every doorknob and switch and item I touch is risky for me.  I was just wondering, has anyone else had carbohydrate intolerance after or related to Celiac? My doctor doesn't know anything about it, especially since I can still digest lactose. Wondering if there are other people out there with similar stories. If eating was complicated before, now it's a bit crazy to be honest.  Thanks, Community!

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Healthierbody2026! Just let me check something with you because there is still much confusion in the general population regarding the terminology associated with gluten disorders. You say you have recently been diagnosed with gluten sensitivity. Do you mean NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) or Celiac disease (aka, "gluten intolerance")? The symptoms of these two conditions overlap. Celiac disease has an autoimmune base and so, there are tests that can be run to detect antibodies in the blood that are produced. Celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining because of the inflammation present from the autoimmune attack. This is not the case with NCGS for which there are no tests. Celiac disease must first be ruled out in order to arrive at a diagnosis of "gluten sensitivity".
