confused

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.

      If you haven't noticed a difference yet, bump up your Thiamax.  Add in another Thiamax with breakfast and lunch.  Increase the NeuroMag as well.  You can add in another Benfotiamine, too.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Taking more is fine. I had to bump mine up several times when first starting.  It's a matter of finding what works for you.  Everyone is different.   Stick with it.  Some of the health improvements are very subtle and gradual.   Keep going!  You're doing great!

      Hello, @hjayne19, About half of the people with Celiac disease react to the protein Casein in dairy the same as to gluten with the inflammation and antibodies and all.  Reacting to Casein is not the same as lactose intolerance nor a dairy allergy.  Damaged villi are incapable of producing lactAse, the enzyme that digests lactOse, the sugar in dairy.  When the villi grow back, the villi can resume making lactase again.  I react to casein. Keep in mind that part of the autoimmune response to gluten and casein is the release of histamine.  Histamine causes inflammation, but it is also powerful excitory neurotransmitter, causing heightened mental alertness.  Histamine release is what causes us to wake up in the morning.  Unfortunately, excessive histamine can cause insomnia.  Our bodies can make histamine, but foods we eat contain different amounts of histamine, too.  Our bodies can clear a certain amount of histamine, but if overwhelmed, chronic high histamine levels can keep inflammation going and cause other health problems.   I got very weary of playing Sherlock Holmes trying to deduce what I was reacting to this week, so I adopted the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet designed by a doctor with Celiac, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, has been most helpful.   The low histamine AIP diet cuts out lots of foods that are known to be irritating to the digestive tract.  After a few weeks, when my system was calmer and healing, I could try adding other foods to my diet.  It was much easier starting with safe foods, adding one thing at a time, and checking for reactions than trying to figure out what I was reacting to with so many variables.  I learned to recognize when I had consumed too much histamine from different combinations of foods.  Everyone is different and can tolerate different amounts of histamine in their food.  B Vitamins help us make enzymes that break down histamine.  Vitamin D helps regulate and calm the immune system.  Supplementing with Thiamine helps prevent mast cells from releasing histamine.  Keeping a food-mood-poo'd journal helps identify problematic foods.   I hope you will consider trying the AIP diet.

      You may be cross reacting to the protein "casein" in dairy, which is structurally similar to gluten. People assume lactose intolerance is the only problem with dairy. It is not, at least for the celiac community.

      Hi @knitty kitty  Just revisiting this to get some help. I found after understanding the extent of my anxiety, my sleep got a little better. Flash forward to a few weeks later I have had a few bad sleeps in a row and I feel desperate for a good nights sleep. I understand worrying about it won’t help but one thing I had tied things too was dairy. Initially when I went gluten free I felt great for the first few weeks then started having some stomach pain. So thought maybe I was lactose intolerant. I started eating lactose free Greek yogurt and that did help take the cramping away I guess. Over the last few months I haven’t eaten it every single day and I went a few weeks without it. The last few nights I did have a small amount with breakfast and noticed that was the only new thing I’ve really added to my diet. I had seen a few other posts about this. Is it possible to still react to lactose free? Would this potentially be a dairy allergy? Or something else.

      I have taken the vitamins for a week. Haven't noticed any major changes but I will give it more time to see.
