Casein Intolerant And I Ate Cottage Cheese

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.

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.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
