Cc, Pasta And Yeasties .. .

I'm not sure i have celiac, due to negative bloodwork, but I do have tons of food allergies and sensitivities. I am currently on a very restrictive diet, eating about 22 foods. I've been feeling pretty darn good, with only occasional slight symptoms, and generally I can find a cause.

Well, the other day I made pasta for dinner for the family - actually, pasta salad, although the little one ate the noodles plain. I dont remember exactly what I ate, but it was probably leftover from the night before, foods i'd eaten several times that week, nothing dangerous.

After dinner, I had cramping, gas, i smelled like something had died in there! I was shocked, I hadnt felt this bad in a long time! Luckily it didnt last long. I tried and tried to figure out what I'd eaten and couldnt come up with anything.

Finally I remembered that someone told me that a celiac freind of hers didnt get too much CC from dry crumbs, but moist stuff like pasta was really a problem. I handled the family's pasta with my hands and I dont think I washed my hands before eating. So i'm thinking I cc'd myself from handling the pasta. Does this sound like CC to you guys?

Then, the next day, i felt yeasty, for the first time in 2 or 3 months. Could this have been in response to the CC?

any of this sound familiar to anyone?

Hello....

Well....me too I have many many food intolerances and allergies and lately I had the same experience with you. I ate something that was - untill then - safe, I had the same food dozens of times before, but suddenly smth went wrong and that food had to go with the non safe ones (nausea, huge belly, ekzema etc)......Really frustrating when I already had a very restricted diet. So I had the same question with you, I asked here in this forum and I was told that

1) MAYBE the reason was my damaged villy that still can't react normally (even though I am gluten-free for 3 months). There is a possibility that this is your case.

2) There is also a possibility you were glutened from pasta ....or ....

3)There are some foods that my test for intolerances says that I am "sensitive" to them, and that means that they are safe for now but I must not eat them too often nor in huge amounts cause they will turn into non safe ones. Maybe that was your case?? Just thoughts......

What really works for me is to eat many times during the day, but small amounts. So my intestine can copy with that small amount....

sorry you felt bad that day. I hope now you are feeling ok...stay away from pastaaaa!!!

      Nope its just me because they can eat wheat and when we use same pans I found out last year thanks to you guys and the autoimmune website im learning,we are not to share though clean, same with sponge. I just wish doctors understood. I am with new gi and new pcp but im falling apart because blood work is fabulous.Im so ANGERY.I have reached out to my local representative, in Stanislaus but its just weekly stuff.Im going to need to physical go down there.Any recommendations on what to say and do because this is absolutely ridiculous. If I didn't have my husband though we are really hurting with one income, I would absolutely be one of the homeless population. Thats alarming begging to be heard about a diagnosis that was given as an adult and dealing with this, medical needs to stick to patients regardless of switching insurance or doctor.

      If you haven't noticed a difference yet, bump up your Thiamax.  Add in another Thiamax with breakfast and lunch.  Increase the NeuroMag as well.  You can add in another Benfotiamine, too.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Taking more is fine. I had to bump mine up several times when first starting.  It's a matter of finding what works for you.  Everyone is different.   Stick with it.  Some of the health improvements are very subtle and gradual.   Keep going!  You're doing great!

      Hello, @hjayne19, About half of the people with Celiac disease react to the protein Casein in dairy the same as to gluten with the inflammation and antibodies and all.  Reacting to Casein is not the same as lactose intolerance nor a dairy allergy.  Damaged villi are incapable of producing lactAse, the enzyme that digests lactOse, the sugar in dairy.  When the villi grow back, the villi can resume making lactase again.  I react to casein. Keep in mind that part of the autoimmune response to gluten and casein is the release of histamine.  Histamine causes inflammation, but it is also powerful excitory neurotransmitter, causing heightened mental alertness.  Histamine release is what causes us to wake up in the morning.  Unfortunately, excessive histamine can cause insomnia.  Our bodies can make histamine, but foods we eat contain different amounts of histamine, too.  Our bodies can clear a certain amount of histamine, but if overwhelmed, chronic high histamine levels can keep inflammation going and cause other health problems.   I got very weary of playing Sherlock Holmes trying to deduce what I was reacting to this week, so I adopted the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet designed by a doctor with Celiac, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, has been most helpful.   The low histamine AIP diet cuts out lots of foods that are known to be irritating to the digestive tract.  After a few weeks, when my system was calmer and healing, I could try adding other foods to my diet.  It was much easier starting with safe foods, adding one thing at a time, and checking for reactions than trying to figure out what I was reacting to with so many variables.  I learned to recognize when I had consumed too much histamine from different combinations of foods.  Everyone is different and can tolerate different amounts of histamine in their food.  B Vitamins help us make enzymes that break down histamine.  Vitamin D helps regulate and calm the immune system.  Supplementing with Thiamine helps prevent mast cells from releasing histamine.  Keeping a food-mood-poo'd journal helps identify problematic foods.   I hope you will consider trying the AIP diet.

      You may be cross reacting to the protein "casein" in dairy, which is structurally similar to gluten. People assume lactose intolerance is the only problem with dairy. It is not, at least for the celiac community.

      Hi @knitty kitty  Just revisiting this to get some help. I found after understanding the extent of my anxiety, my sleep got a little better. Flash forward to a few weeks later I have had a few bad sleeps in a row and I feel desperate for a good nights sleep. I understand worrying about it won’t help but one thing I had tied things too was dairy. Initially when I went gluten free I felt great for the first few weeks then started having some stomach pain. So thought maybe I was lactose intolerant. I started eating lactose free Greek yogurt and that did help take the cramping away I guess. Over the last few months I haven’t eaten it every single day and I went a few weeks without it. The last few nights I did have a small amount with breakfast and noticed that was the only new thing I’ve really added to my diet. I had seen a few other posts about this. Is it possible to still react to lactose free? Would this potentially be a dairy allergy? Or something else.
