Tapioca?

Does anyone else here react just as severely to Tapioca as they do gluten?

I get the Big D, joint pain, muscle spams, cramping, dizziness, nausea, low blood sugar, etc. Usually my glutening reaction is very severe and passes quickly (within 72 hours), but last time I was "tapioca-d" I was sick as a dog for a week.

I also have a latex allergy, and I have seen a measly 2 articles linking that to a cross reaction with tapioca. Apparently reactions to the "spurge" family are not common.

Anyone else react? Or am I just a weirdo? :ph34r:

Nope, you're not a weirdo :D

I react to tapioca with the same cramping, stomach pain and D--and it also makes my mouth extremely dry while I'm still chewing. It dosen't give me the mood symptoms, however.

Flour??? Pudding???? What kind of product???

Could there be a CC issue or do you think it is just tapoica itself?

My b-f reacts to tapioca flour. However tapioca starch does not seem to bother him. Weird huh?

Yes, I react with cramping, pain and violent D when I eat tapioca. It took me a while to figure it out. I hate not being able to eat tapioca because it is in all pre-made breads and is a great starch for baking.

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
