Casein Intolerant And I Ate Cottage Cheese


SUZ42

Recommended Posts

I am casein intolerant and have gone very light on the casein, but have not given it up completely. Last March I went gluten free and casein light. For the first time since March I ate cottage cheese. Only 1/2 cup. Within minutes my tongue was sore (geographic tongue) and today I have undereye bags, hand is numb, lump in throat, chest/back pressure, rapid pounding heart beat and cramping stomach (not intestines). Very same symptoms as when I was gluttened! Could the cottage cheese have done this? The only other possibility would be the egg drop soup (I gave in to a craving) I ate from the chinese place the day before yesterday. But what could that have in it? Anyone have ideas about casein symptoms? Are they the same as Gluten symptoms? :(

Thanks

Casein symptoms can vary. You may think about getting testing done for casein. It sounds like you had a rather intense reaction.

I can tell you from experience that having a lot of casein after not having much can make you sick. I've been on a pretty much vegan diet for years, but had little bits of casein from time to time. (OK, the restaurant put parmesan cheese on my dish, I didn't send it back -- that sort of thing.) At Thanksgiving, I had a slice of cheesecake (this was before I tested as intolerant to casein). I was sick for a week.

Symptoms can vary. My gluten and casein reactions are similar. My soy reaction is subtle. My egg reaction is actually the worst of the bunch. But then people all seem to react in different ways.

However, you could be reacting to the egg drop soup. I googled for recipes and found some contain wheat flour for thickening. Also, could it have contained MSG? Some react rather strongly to that.

I hope you get feeling better.

Deletion of inexplicable double post ...

Are you sure the cottage cheese was gluten free? Not all brands are, from research I've done in the past. Also, could the soup have had MSG in it? Maybe that's another sensitivity (or the eggs themselves). Good luck - hope you feel better soon!

I was going to say the same thing.

Suz . . .gotta tell ya - I don't understand this at all.

Why not completely?

I've been 100% dairy-free for years and it's a breeze.

I DID recently find that goat cheese is fine for me. It seems pretty common for the casein-intolerant to really just have trouble w/ cow casein.

Every goat cheese I've tried has been fantastic, tho I'm only trying 'fresh' varieties, as opposed to 'aged', but that's due to a different problem w/ mold.

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets for disability because I show no signs of celiac BECAUSE IM GLUTENFREE! Actively dealing with sibo and skin issues.Depression is the key because thats all they know, im depressed because medical has caused it because of my celiac and related issues. I should have never ever been employed as a bus driver.After 3 years still healing and ZERO income desperately trying to get better but no careteam for celiac other than stay away frim wheat! Now im having care because my head is affected either ms or meningioma in go in tomorrow again for more scans.I know im slowly dying and im looking like a disability chaser

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values.  Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.  I use them as a gluten free substitute for a peanut butter sandwich.  Try her on grass fed, pasture fed milk. While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

      I see it everyday on my feeds.  They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts.  I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
