Gluten Reaction, Or Not?

Ok, so on two occasions now ive had this weird thing. What happens is that over 4-5 days my body seems to be "building up" to something. It starts at day 1 with odd stool activity, light color, very loose. Then after a couple of days it bursts out into full D, nausea, anxiety/panic and mood swings, then it takes a couple of days and im back to normal.

Does this sound like a gluten reaction? Or could it be that my body is not fully healed yet, so on my weekends/weeks going crazy with candy, coffee, bad food, cigarettes, etc my body just goes crazy?

I'm 100% sure im not getting glutened directly, could be CC though, going crazy over this trying to figure it out :\

also, on 3-4 occasions ive suddently gotn nausea + heavy d for a couple of hours then it went away.

While it could be gluten CC, I think we both know how to check. Have a few non-crazy weekends. ;)

I just started and I actually just went through something kind of like that and I don't know if it's gluten related. I've been gluten free for about a week and 1/2 (whoo!) and one night I wanted ramen (oopsies) and I didn't react at all that day. The next day I didn't feel to well and my bowel movement was looser, but not diarrheas, like it broke apart real easily (yuck) the day after that I had horrible cramping and diarrhea super bad but I also just got my period. But the cramping was different then menstrual cramps and plus I don't get PMS or any of that stuff really. And the 2 days later(which is today) I feel sicker with a horrible headache and a couple itchy little bumps. So maybe I was glutened or maybe just had a bad couple of days. But it sucks though.

Have you been tested for other food intolerances? I think cane sugar gives me the symptoms you describe.

Forgive my ignorance, but in what sort of products do you normally find cane sugar?

      Potential celiac need advice

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
