Arg Glutened And Sick!


Adelle

Recommended Posts

Adelle Enthusiast

My husband and I went to the beach overnight to celebrate our anniversary. We celebrate our wedding anniversary (in aug) w friends n fam and our 1st date anniversary just us.

Anyway, we got a room with a kitchenette, which we wil be returning to btw! Took food with us, but also decided to go to this thai food place. The waiter even brought out cans of sauce and stuff for us to examine cause he didn't know what "gluten" is. How sweet!

This morning I woke up horribly ill. Head cold and gluten symptoms. Hubby doesn't have the cold (his healthy immune system and all), but did feel glutened. We blamed the restraunt until we looked at the sausage WE had brought with us!! It was gluten-free 2 weeks ago!!! Arg! It was one of the only "processed" things we bought.

As soon as we found out, we packed up and headed home (luckily only a 2 hour drive). We made it home about noon. And just in time.

I'm so frustrated! I HATE being glutened! It's only happened once or twice b4 (learning curve I guess). But I HATE it.

On the + side we had fun b4 we got sick!

Ack!

Oh and we babysat a few days ago (probably how I got sick) and my neice (who's nearly 4) went grocery shopping w us. She "helped" us read labels, and said "can u have this? Or this? I am allergic like u!" she's not celiac, but it's still cute!

I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND! Thursday at work i ate 1/2 of a twizzler (my first dumb mistake after starting this diet 5 months ago) and saturday (last night) i had a halloween party to attend at my husbands boss's house...i was totally mad because i was in the bathroom like 2-3 times and after only an hour decided i should just go home :( . I guess my reaction time is like 1-2 days after being glutened. Oh well, guess we will all get the total hang of this nightmare soon enough.

I feel ya! I've gotten glutened twice this week from things on gluten free lists: Amy's soup and gummy lifesavers.

Last night I was supposed to go bowling and I was about to leave and I felt that familiar bloating and other feelings. So I called and told my friend I was going to be late, but I still went, because I knew I'd feel bad at home AND I'd feel bad bowling, but D medicine would at least keep me out of the restroom. It's better for me to be distracted. It was fun, but my second game was bad because I was getting drained and fatigued, besides being achy and nauseous.

I get symptoms a few hours after gluten exposure.

I'm glad you got to enjoy your night. Sometimes on special occasions, I try to eat beforehand and just have a drink at a nice establishment.

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
