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.

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.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      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".

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      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.
