I have been having upper abdominal pain and muscle weakness for the past week. I woke up this morning with my lower body covered in sweat. What is going on? I feel weak and tingly. I know i got glutened recently, but how long until i feel normal?

I also had cheetos last week when i got glutened. I got glutened multiple times though because i was in San Diego at a wedding and all the food i ate probably wasnt safe, however, on the car ride down there i had some cheetos and i immediately felt nauseous and sick right after i ate them. I dont know, im stayin away from them, i cant stand being sick. It has been like a week now. Im pissed off!!!!!!

I thought that Cheetos were safe. I have been eating them every night. Myi ribs have been hurting so bad that I can barely breath or touch them. Could this be from the Cheetos? Are they safe or not? This makes me mad. I am so sick of this crappy disease. It has made me so sick.

I too have occasionally eaten cheetos at work. And then the next day felt glutened. I am so sick of companies that don't realize the damage they are doing. (or don't care). You think they are safe, get sick, go to dr (who says you must be ingesting gluten somewhere), and go home with no answers, only to find out you have been ingesting gluten. How do we get people to realize how serious this disease is. I recieved an email from a company (Shaklee) that they don't even test their product to ensure it is gluten free therefore just because you don't see the ingredients, they recommend not even using it. They said that most companies don't have to list anything about gluten as long as they are not using wheat. That said, Barley powder is one of the ingredients they use and don't list because it is not law. (only wheat). I don't think any of the food we buy is safe anymore. CC happens with the majority of it. Something needs to be done.

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Nausea

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy.
