Are you certain it is even related to the soda. I used to get that feeling all the time followed by ringing ears and then I would black out. When I learned to control them I wouldn't black out anymore. According to my Doctor these are panic attack. Another in the long list of things wrong with me. According to the book I am reading about Celiac Disease, panic attacks are a symptom of this disease, as they are brought on by addrenaline which our body releases when we are allergic to something or excited about something.

I know caffeine gets me wired but I have never had that type of reaction to a beverage before, other than alcohol which makes me violently sick.

Hope you are feeling better soon, take care,

If I drank a soda I'd definately react like that....and probably much worse. I have ALOT of intolerances but for me those type reactions are more due to the fact that my body cant handle all the garbage thats in a can of soda.

My body is already very toxic and having trouble emininating those toxins...soda would just be adding even more of it. If its a diet soda it might have an artificial sweetener like Aspartame....which is straight poison.

I would react like that to Aspartame, MSG or dyes (i.e. red 40). Caffeine isnt too great for me either. I havent had a soda for more than 2 years.

Sounds like you could be dealing with yeast.

Hi

I have been drinking sodas for so long now that I get a headache for the lack of caffine (I guess detoxing from it and the sugar aspertame) I have gone as long as 2 weeks and I feel off the wagon and started to drink it again. But i know that Aspertame is horrible for you as well, THere was a new report here in the DFW area Texas that this woman who is a painter almost went blind and could not see her paintings or function as a normal person. I am trying to always remeber that and try to reach for something else that is healther for me to drink. But I still havent cut back that much, but I have been drinking more water, tha Glaucer VitaminWaters Grape is my choice to drink. But if I get the shakes it is because I need to eat, I usually wait way too long between meals especially if I am working my night shifts at the hospital.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
