Got Glutened Again


Guest nini

Recommended Posts

Guest nini

Sat. morning my daughter and I went over to my mom's to visit with a cousin that was in town for a few days and my mom offered to make breakfast for me. (they were already eating gluten filled pancakes and that should've been a clue to stop right there) but I let her make gluten free pancakes anyway, she used the Pamela's mix, McCormicks vanilla, a clean pan and a clean spatula, but even still within 20 minutes I was in the bathroom with awful D... the only thing I can think is because I'm so micro sensitive, that there was still gluten dust in the air and on things from her making the regular pancakes. My daughter had already eaten at home so she was fine, but me... I've been really bloated and crampy ever since and have been eating like a pig, craving all kinds of bad junk (candy mostly) and today I broke down in tears because I drove into work and my client didn't show up :angry: , I should've just let it roll off me, maybe been a little mad, but no, I had to start crying about how stressed I am about money and how every single client that no shows on me costs me money and I'm already stressed about that. UGH.

I'm cranky and irritable and I hate it that I'm that freakin sensitive that gluten dust in the air would affect me this way.

On top of everything I want to just give up my job and give up my house and sell it all and move away. Wah Wah Wah...

(and I'm supposed to be the strong one, the gluten-free lifestyle coach and all that crap.)

sorry for the vent I'm just really feeling cranky and moody right now and I can really only tell you guys.

I am sorry that you are not feeling well. And please do not worry about venting, this is a safe place and we are here to lift each other up. I hope you are feeling better soon both physically and mentally.

Aw Nini--that sucks :angry: Gosh--I get that way too! Go ahead and rant away--we understand. And, it sucks :angry::angry:

Sorry to hear that you are sick. It makes it so much harder to deal with everyday problems when you just don't feel well. At least your daughter didn't get sick. I can't imagine dealing with a glutened child when you were glutened yourself.

Hope you feel better soon.

Having a no show and being stressed about finances can take down the healthiest of people.....let alone someone who is suffering from a glutening.

Hope you get over this quickly. Hugs. :)

thank you my friends for being there...

I'm waiting for the rice to finish cooking so I can feed my child... otherwise I just wanna curl up in a ball and cry. Hubby won't be home until 9 or so and my daughter is picking up on my mood and is taking advantage of the situation... I'm trying so hard to be nice...

Oh Nini... I'm so sorry you're having such an awful day.

Hugs.. :(

Why is it whenever we desparately need our hubbies home, they have to work late. Just like a child to make things more difficult. Somehow I think one or more of mine would do the same.....depends on what kind of mood they were in.

Guest nini

it seems like every little thing I ask her to do sets her off into a fit of "not fair" "it takes too long" "why me?" and on and on and the tears...

TinkerbellSwt Collaborator

aww nini.. I hope you feel better soon. I know I get the same way when glutened and for some reason.. Colin just doesnt understand! (he is only 18 months old)

I am sorry everything feels like it is coming down on you. (((((((HUGS))))))))

happygirl Collaborator

Nini,

Hugs to you. You are such a great support to all of us, I hope that you know we are all thinking of you. It stinks to go through this, esp when you know all the "answers" (i.e., this will pass, it will get better, it happens to all of us)

I hope you have a restful night's sleep and you wake up with a clear head and heart.

Love,

Laura

thanks... is it wrong of me to eat a fudgesicle? (it's gluten-free)

Dang I feel so bloated and HUNGRY... I feel like I've done nothing but EAT today...

thanks for the support and hugs and for letting me vent. My mom felt bad that I got sick despite how careful she was. We were both surprised... but it was an obvious glutening as it happened within 20 minutes of eating and hasn't gone away...

SchnauzerMom Rookie

Wow, I'm sorry that you're not feeling well. I hope it clears up soon.

It happens to the best of us and all you can do is ride it out.

Heck, no! Anything that makes you feel better and is comfort food (even though you'll be unhappy in the long run for gaining weight :ph34r::rolleyes::blink: ).

I hope you feel better soon. And tell your daughter to be nice, because you have been glutened and are in a terrible mood. I bet she'll understand that.

(((((((((HUGS))))))))) I hope things are better today.

I'll sit in the corner and stick my tongue out at the world with you......until you feel better and feel like being the proactive, gluten-free life coach again, which you do so very well.

Guest nini

thanks guys, I am feeling just a bit better today, not 100% but enough that I don't completely hate the world today. Last night I told my hubby I want to run away. He said that's not possible, he doesn't know how he'd live without me (say a collective AWWWWWWWW)...

I actually have a client waiting to be coached and I haven't called him back yet, bad me. Hopefully I can do that today.

      jmartes, Thank you for sharing  more information with us. Most of us Celiacs whose problems do not clear up with in a few years have to decide what to do next. We can keep seeing DR.s and hope that we will get some  medication or advice that will improve our health. Or we can go looking for other ways to improve our health. Usually Celiac Disease is not a killer disease, it is a disabling disease as  you have found out. You have time to find some ways to help you recover. Stay on your gluten-free diet and be more careful in avoiding cross contamination . KnittyKitty  and others here can give you advice about avoiding some foods that can give you the gluten auto immune reaction and advice about vitamins and supplement that help celiacs. You may need to take higher doses of Vit. B12  and D3.  About 20 years before a Dr. suggested I might have Celiac disease I had health problems that all other Dr said they could not identify or treat. I was very opposed to alternative providers and treatments. So many people were getting help from a local healer I decided to try that out. It was a little helpful but then, because I had a good education in medical laboraties she gave me a book  to read and what did I think. With great skeptism I started reading and before I was half way through it I began using the methods outlined in the book. Using those herbs and supplements I went from hardly able to work to being able to work almost fulltime. I still use that program. But because I had undiagnosed celiac disease by 10 years later some  of my problems returned and I started to loose weight.    So how does a person find a program that will benefit them? Among the programs you can find online there are many that are snake oil scams and some that will be beneficial. by asking around, as I did. Is there an ND in your area? Do they reccomend that person? If you would like to read about the program I use go to www.drclark.net

      It's unfortunate that they won't work with you on this, but in the end sometimes we have to take charge of our own health--which is exactly what happened to me. I did finally get the tests done, but only after years of going down various rabbit holes and suffering. Just quitting gluten may be the best path for you at this point.

      My doctor didn't take the time to listen to anything. I don't even think she knows what it means. She is more concerned about my blood pressure that is caused by her presence than anything else and just wants to push pills at me. The so-called dermatologist wouldn't do a skin test. she prescribed all of these silly antihistamine skin meds. This lady didn't even know what she was talking about and said "they never turn out as celiac, they usually just say it's dermatitis so here's your meds," just like my regular quack. I'm trying to change insurance companies at the moment and that has been a battle because of red tape, wrong turns, and workers having wrong phone numbers. What a joke! The allergy blood days say I have a wheat allergy of .31. Hopefully it's just that and until I find a decent doctor and dermatologist, I'll just lay off the wheat anyway, since it gives me asthma, high blood sugar, and joint pain. So frustrated at this point. The rash on my back of arms/elbows is mostly gone. Both calves and chest have started up. smh. It comes and goes. It fades faster now, though, although my forearms still produce one or two bumps on each side. The itching has calmed down a lot except for the bump area. I have dry skin to begin with so anything affecting it just makes it crazy. i'm never going to eat wheat again. I don't care if they need it to produce results or if it is just an intolerance, allergy, or celiac. It gives me hell.

      I had the test done by one of the specialist through second pcp I had only a few months because he was saying I wasn't.Even though Im positive HLA-DQ2 .My celiac is down played.I am with new pcp, seeing another girl doctor who wants to do another breathe test next month though Im positive sibo this year.I have high blood pressure not sure if its pain from sciatica or sibo, ibs or hidden gluten. Im in disability limbo and I should have never been a bus driver because im still suffering and trying to heal with zero income except for my husband. This isnt fare that my health is dictating my living and having ti beg for being revalidation of my disregarded celiac disease. Its an emotional roller coaster I don't want to be on and the medical made it worse.New pcp new gi, exhausted, tired and really fed up. GI doctor NOT girl..

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.
