My Major Glutening

Yesterday, the Nascar season began with the Daytona 500. So we get all ready to watch, I make a batch of gluten free buffalo tenders for me and b/f. They are finally ready, race is going, now we sit down to eat... I used Blue Cheese Dressing, no wheat in it.. have used it from the same bottle before, but uh oh.. something happened. I got sooooo sick. I also fed our stray cat while I was cooking, the food we give her has wheat in it, but I only take the closed bag outside, pour it into the dish, close it up again, and put it right inside the door on the floor, it doesnt leave that spot ever.

So we are eating and the gurgles began... I ran to the bathroom, yup a glutening.. but it was amazing, it was the best glutening I ever had!!! :P not painful, just had to come out.. it did and it was over (so I thought).

I came back and said, no more blue cheese dressing, switched to a gluten free ranch dressing.. not as good, but hey gotta do what I gotta do.. couldnt finish my chicken anyway, made too much! lol

As for the rest of the day, nope, nothing stayed in.. phooey. It was a pretty serious glutening for me then.. usually for me once its out, i can eat again without a problem, not yesterday. Everything kept coming out.. phooey.. today I am ok so far.. eating breakfast now.. hopefully it will all be ok!

My first major glutening in a LONG time! Does anyone use a gluten free blue cheese dressing? I love and miss my blue cheese with buffalo tenders, I finally perfected that recipe, but now no dressing! phooey!!

Sorry to hear about your glutening... I hope you're feeling much better now...it sucks when something previously 'safe' does a number on you!

That stinks..I thought that Litehouse Blue Cheese was gluten free?

(I hate to ask while you feel sick, but have you ever posted your buffalo chicken tenders recipe??)

No, I havent posted the recipe for the buffalo chicken tenders, but I will under the correct heading if you would like! I am better now, breakfast didnt stay in, but I have had 2 cookies and 4 crackers since then, and they are doing ok! LOL, all the healthy stuff right?

That sucks, I just glutened myself cooking noodles. I tasted mine to see if they were done, and without thinking (oh yeah) I tasted their's to see if they were done. Hope the food "stays in".

OH NO! I hate when that happens. I did that once at my mothers around the holidays my first holidays with celiacs. Just was touching it to see if it was hot, and licked my finger! :blink: I guess we are all able to make mistakes like that no matter how long we have been at it! I hope you dont get sick! If you do, feel better fast!!

Sorry to hear you got sick, and at the Start of NASCAR at that....I am glad to hear the glutening wasn't that bad. Hope you are feeling much better.

It's crazy what you have to eat when you don't feel well!! Hopefully you can eat a decent supper tonight.

(Thanks for posting that recipe!)

I also glutened myself last night cooking noodles for my son! I had everything perfect...I thought! One thing that escaped me was when I ladled the sauce onto his noodles the ladle touched them and I put the ladel back into the sauce again..not thinking!! As I was eating my gluten-free noodles I realized what I had done. Well a few hours later stomach started grumbling and I knew I had done myself in. I'm still pretty new to this (diagnosed Celiac in Jan 07). Old habits are hard to break.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10). Since then it has gone up to 10. I am not happy with that. I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I...

      Low iron and vitamin d

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer. Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks...

I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
