Food Intolerances/allergies And Anxiety

I have experienced a weird symptom that I wonder if any of you have had or know anything about.

It seems that when I have eaten a questionable food, I get this adrenaline surge feeling after eating and AND when I'm going to the bathroom (2). It's almost like an anxiety reaction, but purely physical. My heart doesn't race, but it feels like it is.

I've also been having anxiety and trembling guts that I think are food-intolerance/allergic reactions.

I've got an appt with a gastro, but not until April 5. This may be too long to wait! Do any of you think this is anything to be super concerned about, or would you wait for the appt? I may just see if I can get in with an internist sooner.

Thanks in advance for all input!!!

Yep, been there and done that. I was freaking out so bad about what I'd ate, I found myself not eating. The anxiety, for me, got so bad that I went to the doctor and was put on an anti-depressent which has really helped a lot. It's also helped any "IBS" issues I'd have, normally the minute I'm stressed out my stomach is off and running.

I don't know if you need to be super concerned, but I would recommend taking your diet down to very simple plain foods. Keep a food log so you can see if you're getting any trends in what you eat/bathroom/anxiety issues.

feel better!

Thanks for your input and understanding, Ev!! I have taken my diet down to just meats & veggies, but adding little things here and there seems to have proven my current intolerance to most other things. Sigh. Where are the days of eating pizza & stuff? lol It's better to not eat those things, I know, but I'm getting bored trying to figure out what I can eat!

I know what you mean about being afraid to eat and so not eating! That was me last week and I became weakened, which is not good either! Guess I'll be resolute in my current dietary needs and be diligent about documentation.

Take care!!

I read somewhere, don't remember where, that it takes the brain awhile to catch up to the body after a lengthy illness. The brains still reacting like it is allergic to something even though there is nothing causing a reaction.

Does that make any sense?

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
