Getting Aggrivated

It seems like i have either been glutened yet again, or have a new intolerance. I was up all night in the bathroom or laying with my heating pad. I finally went to sleep at 2 and got up at 4 with hubby. I felt a little better this morning. Then i was driivng my boys to school and i got so sick, terrible brain fog and really needing to use the bathroom. I had to just drop them off and tell them to tell their teachers ill be back to sign them in, and i drove as fast as i could home. I am feeling so terrible right now.

Im wondering if i am more intolerant now cause of the stress of my grandma or if its just a regular glutening. Ijust want to go back to bed, but i cant since hubby is at work til 2 and i have the 2 girls home.

I am just so tired of feeling terrible. I dont even want to eat anymore.

Why don't you start a food diary? Maybe that could help you pin down what is irritating you.

I think I will thank you very much for that idea.

Im trying to think what all i ate yesterday. im going to post here and maybe i can figure it out lol

are cranraisins for breakfast lol

leftover fajitas for lunch

like 6 enjoy life cookies(im addicted) lol

then for dinner i had tacos and spanish rice.

so i figure its probably

cc from the fajitas when the food was put up

too many enjoy life cookies

or the corn taco shells from the tacos

has anyone else ever got sick from the enjoy life snacks

Aren't the Enjoy Life cookies made with dates? If so, that could easily be your problem. Dates can cause stomach cramping and diarrhea. It's happened to me from lara bars and they are definitely gluten free. I don't know about the rest of you, but I get brain fog occasionally when I have D (un-Celiac related).

Hi Paula,

I have never gotten sick from Enjoy Life and I tend to be pretty sensitive (I also am addicted to them!) but I know when I'm having tummy problems for whatever reason; too much dairy, stress, period, etc. corn always gives me a hard time. What was in the fajitas that you made? and what kind of corn tacos did you use?

I hope you feel better, there's nothing more frustrating than being sick and not knowing how you got that way. ;(

They were the double chocolate brownie, and yes they have dates in them. Maybe the mixture of the dates and the cranirasins.

I get brain fog alot, i think it is from having 5 kids lol

The fajitas just has bell peppers, onions, jalepenos. but they didnt get me sick the night before.

My hubby made the spanish rice with rotel(which i think is safe).

He also had made spaghetti first with debellos ( i think that is how it is spelt), but i took 2 bites and we threw it out. it was nasty.

The tacos were the ones in the blue box, omg i just spaced out what brand that is. I threw the boxes out last night. I thought all taco shells are safe.

      This is an older article, but may be helpful.

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
