Got Glutened Again


Guest nini

Recommended Posts

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.

So sorry, Nini :( Wish I could bring you some gluten-free candy to enjoy!!

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...

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.

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
