I Think I Got Glutened

[mythreesuns]

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.

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.
