The Eggs, The Milk Or Both

I'm still waiting on the bloodwork to come back, but since the bloodwork on Monday I have been gluten-free or to the best of knowledge of I have been. My stomach has felt better each day and this morning really good and went to bathroom "normal"....until I ate breakfast....and for the first time this week I ate 2 eggs, glass milk and bacon....

What a mistake...within 15 minutes I had to run, RUN, to the bathroom and it was the "D"--- which I have not even had from the beginning....it's like the food just went straight through me and was YUK....

SO you think it was the eggs? The milk? or Both?

And now I feel crappy and tummy is kinda crampy, and little shaky feeling and having to take deep breaths..... This is just the craziest stuff...

What would you do?

If you have intestinal damage due to Celiac, any food will bother you until you are gluten free long enough that some healing can take place.

It's often recommended that you eliminate milk/dairy for several weeks until you can heal.

For the time being keep your meal simple and be careful about cross contamination with used toasters, wooden spoons, scratched pots and pans, shampoos, lipbalms/stick, creams, meds, ....ie. anything that can hide gluten.

Take this time, while you are awaiting your results to study here about the diet. This is an invaluable site. It does get better.

If you were eating turkey bacon, some of those can have gluten, I think.

My vote would be for the milk as the culprit --------

or you might be coming down with a "bug"----

Eggs can also be the culprit. I have a severe reaction to eggs, which I noticed and removed well before we ever figured the gluten thing. I still to this day can't eat eggs straight. I don't have an allergy to them, they just destroy my stomach.

That being said, many people have issues with dairy their first few months.

Did you cook the bacon & eggs in a non-stick skillet or cast iron skillet that you usually cook gluten foods in?

I would say it was the dairy. Better to not eat dairy for at least 6 months - well really I think dairy is awful on its own & people should not eat it. dairy does NOT give you strong bones & teeth - that is an advertising myth. Dairy blocks the calcium from being absorbed from other foods.

      Hello, and welcome to the forum. Getting use to gluten-free eating is a struggle, but it is worth it. Your daughter should begin to feel much better and the fatigue will fade but it can take some time. I am sure you will get lots of suggestions from forum members - we have a few from the UK. I am a bit pushed for time just now but will come back later. Russ

      Thank you so much @suek54 How are you doing today? I spoke too soon yesterday. Something (I can only think gluten-free sweets or a can of soft drink) set me off yesterday. Had a bath, applied some cream, still itching so applied some steroid and was awake until 3am. It's so frustrating. Always 2 steps forward, 1 step back. I am at work now and going to play it very much on the very safe side with food for the next few days.  My derm appointment is less than a week away. I will update on here because I do feel it important to help others.

      I’m sorry you’re going through all of this. It sounds very stressful, especially when you feel that your symptoms are not being taken seriously. Until you are seen next week, it may help to keep the focus very practical: take clear photos of the skin sores, write down a timeline of symptoms, list all medicines, eye drops, supplements, implants/leak history, and any test results, and bring that to the dermatologist. If there is drainage, spreading redness, fever, worsening pain, eye involvement, or signs of infection, that needs prompt medical care. I would be cautious about assuming parasites or staph without testing, and also cautious with new supplements or putting vitamin C directly on sores, since irritated skin can get worse. A dermatologist can culture lesions, biopsy if needed, and refer to infectious disease if the findings point that way. On the celiac side, I understand your concern for your son, but being HLA-DQ2 positive does not by itself mean he has celiac disease; it means he has a genetic risk. If he is eating gluten now, this is actually the best time for proper celiac blood testing before he tries a gluten-free diet. His symptoms, weight, congestion, and family history are worth discussing with a gastroenterologist, but he should not be told he has celiac based only on HLA status. For your own care, try to keep pushing for objective testing and clear documentation in your records, because that is often what gets doctors to take the next step.
