Hi I was just wondering if anyone knew if the Exact anti - nauseant tablets are gluten-free. I feel super sick ,I was like this since last night and this is all I could find in the house. The thing is I cant find a website for it to find out if its gluten-free . I felt sick ever since I ate the peanut butter cookies I made and I used was skippy pb. Does anyone use this brand? thanks

I have not heard of this brand, but I use Requa charcoal tabs whenever I make a goof. They work awesome! I know there are some other makers of these too...check with your pharmacist.

Some things to help nausea are peppermints.. like hard strong peppermint candy. Also my grandma always gave us a bi carb.. baking soda in water.. tastes bad but works well and I think baking soda is gluten free. Just hold your nose and drink it fast.

Another thing is ginger tea. When I was pregnant with my second child, OOFFDA... I did not want to hurt her so I took no meds.. Go to a good store with a large produce section and either buy ginger in the root form or diced and in a jar already, its near the garlic cloves (both kinds) in my store.. Dont get the powdered spice, whole other beast that is.

Put 8 oz of water in a saucepan and either a small whole peice of ginger (dont have to peel or chop) about 1/2 tsp worth.. or the cut up stuff, half a tsp. Gently simmer for at least 2 mins, the longer you simmer, the stronger it gets. Remove the hunk or strain out the diced peices, add sugar or honey or milk, however you like tea and drink. You can also buy peppermint tea and add your own ginger, very effective at reducing nausea. They may have ginger tea already in a bag too, to tell you the truth, I dont like tea much so...

Some people swear by plain ol hot water.. drinking a cup of it...

Of course the very best effective anti nausea drug is injectable Vit B but since no one wants to inject themselves and the only type available is for live stock, thats not an option. You could try oral, vit b complex....

I use Skippy pb with no problem. I have called the manufacturer and it is gluten-free. Must have been something else!

If you're not a tea drinker like myself, you can always chew or suck on crystalized ginger. Works wonders for me!

:) My doctor prescribed Tigan for me when I get nauseated. That really works great for me. I do also suck on Peppermint candies, take Peppermint capsules and drink the Peppermint tea. I know it sounds like overkill, but I can't stand to feel this way.

Good Luck!!

I drink gluten-free peppermint tea or Pepto Bismol.

Also I have an Rx for NuLev if the pain/spasms get bad.

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.

      Ok, thanks for the advice, the only advice I've had that's made sense after 21years since my slight symptoms all my life turned into nasty symptoms 21 yrs ago and around 50 gp's and specialists all chasing the symptoms and not looking for the cause, after 9 years of misery I discovered my symptoms matched celiac disease and a blood test proved anti bodies to gliadin but it was too late it has changed into r.c.d. thanks again.

      Welcome to the forum, @QueenBorg! Just for the sake of clarification, your desire to avoid gluten is connected only with your dx of fibromyalgia and not celiac disease, correct?
