Muscle/joint Pain After Possibly Being Glutenated


Mountaineer Josh

Recommended Posts

Mountaineer Josh Apprentice

I was on the road this past weekend and at breakfast I had some "seasoned" home fries/potatoes. As the day went on yesterday, I began feeling fatigued and then by last night I had aches and pains all over. I thought I was getting a cold or some sort of summer flu. What was strange though was that I wasn't running a temperature which usually accompanies aches and pains. I was wondering if this was celiac related or something else. Any thoughts?

I get achy joints when I'm glutened sometimes, depending on the severity. I also get extremely fatigued. It's very possible it's due to gluten, especially if you're having other symptoms.

Josh-

that's one of my symptoms: about one day after eating gluten (even a tiny amount) I get joint & bone pain (among other symptoms). It does feel like you're coming down with a flu.

I hope you're better today. B)

I'm new to this site but read your post and wanted you to know that i get muscle and joint pain when i eat gluten. that is usually how i know i've eaten it since within an hour or so i also have to go to the bathroom. The muscle and joint pain varies and sometimes will go away after a day, sometimes 2-3 days after. I've been on a gluten free diet for 4 weeks and must be ultra sensitive to everything so i've been eating bland as can be so when i do get the aches and headache/fatigue i wonder what did i eat? I've been reading other people's postings as well and have noticed a variety of times on how long it took people to get better and what they felt like.

Hang in there and maybe stay away from seasoned fries. :):D:D

I tend to get joint and bone pain after getting glutened. Specifically in my jaw and feet.

Yea for the first couple years gluten-free I would have severe pain when glutened. It would be one of the first signs in addition to my neuro stuff that would flare within hours of injestion. 5 years into the diet now and this is very rare. Even with a good glutening all the other stuff will appear but the joint pain is now just like a quick shock, there then gone. I think it is part of the antibody reaction as this changed the same as my DH reaction, both were once 'first signs' of a gluten reaction and severe now both are barely noticeable. I don't know if this will follow through for all but it did lessen in severity for me.

I always feel fatigued and achey whenever I eat gluten. It almost feels like the flu. :(

Nightshades - just an idea.

Nightshades are: Potato, tomato, peppers, eggplant. There is a known link (for some) that these cause arthritis and joint pain. Bob

HI BOB, THATS INTERSTING, WHAT IS NIGHTSHADE. I HAVE BEEN GLUTEN FREE FOR 5 MONTHS, BUT I CAN'T FIGURE OUT THE SEVERE MUSCLE AND JOINTS PAINS, AND THE OCCASIONAL SPASMING OF MY INTESTINES...COULD THIS BE RELATED? JANET

      So eight days in a row of gluten on top of gluten on top of gluten, I just had to resort to the EpiPen. I wish I could post a picture because you wouldn’t believe how enormous my gut is! It makes my head look like a pinhead.Ahhhgggsahhhhh!!!! I have discovered that I have to read the ingredients when I use a product up that I’ve been able to use without getting a reaction, because they can change the ingredients and bam my toothpaste now has gluten!!! my doctor told me gluten free means it has 20 ppm which someone with a severe a celiac as I’ve got that thing there kills me. I try to find certified gluten-free in everything. I can’t eat any oats unless it’s Bob’s red mill certified gluten-free. Good luck everybody this autoimmune disease is wicked wicked

      I have been using a little bit of Lubriderm when I wash my hands because it’s the lotion offered at a place I frequent once a week. Assuming it was gluten-free I bought a bottle. I couldn’t figure out why I was getting gluten EVERY night. I use a little of the lotion in the morning on my neck, with no reaction, but at night, I use it on my arms and legs and face and get gluten gut pretty bad. After eight nights of having to have diphenhydramine injections for severe gluten, I googled “is Lubriderm gluten-free” and it led me to this forum. I am going to go back to olive oil as I have been gut sick sooooooo bad with a huge gut and pain eight days in a row now. Sick of feeling sick.

      These look great!  I follow several people who frequently post gluten-free recipes online (plus they sell their cookbooks). "Gluten Free on a Shoestring" and "Erin's Meaningful Eats>"

      Sounds great, we also have lots of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/

      When I had to go gluten-free, the rest of my family still ate gluten. They still eat regular bread products and crackers, but there are no other gluten-containing foods in the house. I bought a separate toaster that is only used for gluten-free products, and thoroughly cleaned all cookware, dishes and surfaces. We do have to be very careful with cross-contact, for instance when someone else is making a sandwich with wheat bread. Then I went through my cupboards and pantry, I set aside everything else with gluten and gave it away - flour and baking mixes, pasta, etc. So when I cook any recipe that calls for flour (perhaps for thickening) or bread crumbs like Panko, I only use gluten-free. My cupboard now holds gluten-free baking flour, tapioca flour, rice flour, almond flour, gluten-free oats, gluten-free grits, gluten-free cornmeal, and a few gluten-free baking mixes for occasional use. On the odd occasion when we have pasta, it is gluten-free - nobody notices the difference in the "new" lasagna. I have found several good recipes that are gluten-free and everyone loves them. A family favorite is the Tarta de Santiago, a naturally gluten-free treat made with almond flour.
