Reaction From Sex?

:o I think this is a stretch but has anyone had any symptoms after having sex with a non gluten free partner? I've been seeing my boyfriend since May of this year. Everything was going great but last month it seemed like i was being glutened the whole month. My stomach was swollen and painfull the whole month and not to mention the watery itchy bumps i used to get on the palms of my hands are back. I will admit to cheating on foods from time to time but honestly i didn't cheat last month. I'm wondering if his fluids are what is bothering my system. :o

Yeah, I think it's a stretch. ;)

You might want to revisit your cheating.

Is he brushing/flossing before you start swapping spit? (Sorry, I know that's blunt, but then so is what you asked! ;) )

You might also want to investigate any toiletries he uses.

ShayFL Enthusiast

I dont think it is a stretch if he eats gluten and then you kiss him. New relationships often involve A LOT of kissing. :) He could also be using toiletries with oats/gluten that you lick off.....not trying to be crude.....but if it is done right......this could happen. ;)

Well, maybe it's a stretch for my OLD relationship. :P

Hmmm, are gluten eaters better in bed or something? I got no experience with that I'm afraid. Such a sad tail. Have you checked with your doctor though? Could also just be a coincidence of timing with some other ugly bugly disease.

Thanks for the responses :lol: i love the sense of humor. I laughed out loud and i'm at work. Yes, I think gluten eating men are better in bed ! :D

Seems pretty simple to me, have you tried condoms to see if your reaction stops? B)

stop making me giggle

Now I understand my wife's facination with the Pillsbury Dough Boy. :angry:

Seems to me there was a story last year about a college girl w/a peanut allergy who died when her boyfriend, who had eaten a peanut butter cup or something earlier, kissed her. (Poor kids!!)

My husband still eats gluten, usually away from home, and I must admit I'm wondering whether the toothbrushing/rinsing/facewashing is enough to keep me safe.

NOT true!

NOT true!

I think we need a poll here! :rolleyes:

DH eats gluten away from home.....and he's pretty good. ;) But I cannot compare as I have never been with a gluten free guy. :P

I think that peanut kiss story turned out to be wrong (unless there were multiple cases). I found this story online:

Okay, for this I have valuable experience.......DH was not diagnosed with celiac until last summer - -therefore, I knew him (in the biblical sense :lol: ) for eighteen years as a gluten-eater, and for the past year as a gluten-free performer.

No difference. Great both ways........ :ph34r::D

Boy, thanks for sharing that!! I never heard the follow up. But I especially appreciated this part:

"A recent study shows at the end of an hour, there is no allergen left in the saliva."

Good news!!

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
