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.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
