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.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!

      It's interesting how a single, clear moment—like struggling during a game—can suddenly connect all the dots and reveal the hidden impact of gluten exposure. Your experience with short-term memory fog is a very real and documented symptom for many individuals with gluten sensitivity, often occurring alongside the other issues you mentioned like mood disturbances, sleep disruption, and digestive irregularity. It's a frustrating and often invisible effect that can make you feel unlike yourself, so that moment of clarity, though born from a tough dominoes match, is actually a powerful piece of self-knowledge. Identifying a specific culprit like that steak strip is a huge win, as it arms you with the information needed to avoid similar pitfalls in the future and protect your cognitive clarity. You are definitely not alone in experiencing this particular set of neurological and physical symptoms; it's a strong reminder of gluten's profound impact on the entire body, not just the digestive system. Supplementation may help you as well.  The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
