Pregnant - Got Glutened

Ok, I know Red Bulls are great when you get glutened, but I don't think I can drink one of those while pregnant. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could safely take that might help with this horrible brain fog? I can deal with the cramping and belly stuff, but the brain fog is killing me! Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm already taking a prenatal so I really don't want to take any additional vitamins before I can talk to my doctor tomorrow.

Ohh, I am sorry to hear you got glutened. I don't know of anything you could do. Maybe a cup of tea? I just hope you are feeling better soon. So this is more of a warm wish response.

Angie, I am sorry that you are feeling bad. I think that you just have to ride it out babe. Hopefully, it won't be a long run..

Hope you feel better soon.

Hugs to you, Lisa

I was afraid that was going to be the case. Luckily my symptoms don't usually last more than 24-48 hours, so hopefully I'll only have a day or so left of feeling like this. The belly stuff really isn't all that bad this time, but I feel like such a space cadet!!! :rolleyes: Hopefully I'll be back to normal in the morning or shortly thereafter. Thanks for the replies. ;)

Benedryl helps me sometimes. I am not sure if it is the forced deep sleep, or the calming of the inflamation? Maybe Motrin if dr approves??

      Doctors and Celiac.com

      I wonder how many doctors are aware of this site and would or should recommend it to their patients?

      Hypothetical question about antibodies

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I just got my test results after a less than 2-week gluten challenge consuming about 5 g of gluten per day on average.  Anti tTG-IgA: <0.2 AU/ml (<8 is negative) IgA: 180 mg/dl (Reference range is 70-400) I previously had been on a gluten-free diet for around 3 years or so, with occasional cheating and not being strict about cross-contamination. I am however still suffering from the effects of the gluten challenge (food sensitivities, slight brain fog, weird stool, fatigue, swollen thyroid, bodyaches). Is this likely to be NCGS rather than celiac disease given the test results and my history? Note: I have one copy of HLA-DQ8.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By trents · Posted

      How long have you been strictly gluten free? Certainly, it would be good to look into vitamin and mineral deficiencies and supplementation. The B vitamins, magnesium and D3 are all very important to neurological health. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to reverse gluten-induced neurological damage damage if it has gone on for a long time.

      Thanks Trents I'm strict with my gluten-free diet now. I just don't feel any better. I'm going to get tested for vitamins and minerals to see if I need some supplements. For sure I got some damage that doctors call Menier's and the only way they treat it is with medicine that does damage my body more than it helps.

      Thank you Scott for your helpful response! Based on this, would you say someone who is on a gluten-free diet - but not strict about cross-contamination and occasional cheating - and tests negative for tTg-IgA while having normal total IgA is not likely to have celiac, even if they have been 'gluten-free' for years?
