Recommended Posts

I have had a bad week. I think i got glutenened on friday, cause i was sick on saturday. Then i have been really tired all week. Then today i woke up with my stomach gurgling really bad and could feel lots of gas in my stomach, Now i have been running to the bathroom every 10 minutes with watery poop(sorry tmi), and im miserable. I have never had poop like this. Is this part of being glutened. or do u think something else could be going on. and what can i do to feel better. Or do u think i have been glutened again since friday.

Know how you feel. I have had the watery stuff lots., but never sure from what as I react to so many things. Do you have other food intolerances? The only thing I know how to do is drink lots of water all day to get the bad stuff out of my system. Hope some of the experts on here have some better ideas!

It could just be a glutening. I am not sure, as I am not an expert, but I get those symptoms when I get glutened really good. Usually not just with cc, but a major cc, those are usually some of my symptoms..

I am sure others will chime in on this.. I guess if you really feel like it could be something else, it couldnt hurt to go to the doc either...

Sounds like a glutening to me. I used to get the watery diarrhea all the time.

I notice on the gene thread you started that you have one of the same genes I do; DQ1, 0602. When I first got my results back, someone here told me that it was more common to have pain and neuro symptoms with that gene. (Which I was having, big time.) I'd say your back pain is probably nerve pain from the glutening. For me, it's usually constant pain in a particular area, usually my back and hips. It sometimes gets bad enough that I get what feels like painful electric shocks. It usually interferes with my mobillity anywhere from just walking funny, to really not being able to walk much.

If you feel like something else might be going on, you should see your doctor. It sounds a lot like me when I get glutened though.

It may be a gluten problem or it could be a reaction to dairy or some other item. I see new items pop up now that did not bother me before. Hang in there.

nancy that is exactly what it feels like. The pain is like in my back and in my hip area. I almost convinced myself i was having an appenditicits. But i know its not that.

My hubby tried to talk me into going to the dr, and i said no way. I did tell him if im still feeling this bad i will go tommorow. I just dont want to go today.

Im wondering if i got sick from fritos last night.

Mother nature also decided to show her head this morning, so maybe it is just an mixture of everything. i just know my heating pad will be my best friend today.

I usually have one or two days of the nerve pain and then it starts getting obviously better. It sucks that you're getting cramps on top of it. I hope you feel better tomorrow.

I am so happy that you said just one or two days. Cause i have an baseball tournament and soccer games this weekend.

Before my husband went to work, he told me he was going to clean the house from top to bottom on friday, and we taking all gluten out of the house. He said he hates seeing me this way and its not worth having bread in the house. That is practically the only gluten we have is the bread and frozen pizzas. He did ask me if he could keep his coors light and i said of course, but he is responsible for throwing away his cans. lol.

I know that whenever I had a lot of frito's they made me sick. CC issues with them. I could handle a little but I don't eat them anymore.

You have a smart husband. Just make sure not to kiss him after he's had a beer. ;)

My husband eats gluten sometimes when he's out, or if he goes out to lunch when he's at work. So he doesn't feel like he's missing out on anything.

Going by my symptoms, I'd say you should be fine by the weekend. Maybe still a little achy, but that's about it. But everybody is different. Fingers crossed for ya.

I have that problem with fritos in quantity and store bought tostada shells. The tostada shells are killer, for me anyway, they taste good but wow, do they make me sick.

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
