So I have been gluten free for almost three years now and for almost one year I had had absolutely no stomach problems...until this week. All of a sudden I feel like I have eaten alot of gluten, even though I am sure that I haven't. I haven't gone out to eat recently and I haven't eaten any different foods or taken any different medications. For the past five or six days I have been getting really terrible, disabling cramps and have zero appetite. I decided to try cutting out dairy. I havent eaten anything at all with lactose in it for the past two days but there has been noooo improvement at all.

I am so so frustrated right now...I had come so far and felt so much better and now all of the sudden everything is bad all over again. This is interferring with my life so much, I have already missed three days of school and work and tomorrow will probably be the fourth. Has anyone expereienced something like this before? Or does anyone know a way to go about fixing this problem? I need help and ideas pleasee!

This might be worth a trip to the doctor. It could be gluten exposure but it could also be completely unrelated and could indicate a more serious problem.

Have you checked to see if there is a stomach bug going around? Have you eaten anything that might have been contaminated with a stomach-bug inducing bacteria (uncooked meat, unwashed salad, etc.)?

the fact that it has come out of the blue suggests that you have picked up something from somewhere.

I was guessing parasite or bacteria too. DH just got over a nasty after eating some lettuce at Chipotle. He has an iron stomach and never gets this sort of thing, but the pain had him nearly in tears.

A doctor visit is a good idea.

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Levi, How are you doing?  Sorry I missed your posts.   How's your thyroid?  Did your Vitamin D stabilize?  Do you have long hauler syndrome after Covid? Consider switching to Vitamin D 3, the natural form of Vitamin D.  Vitamin D 2 is the synthetic form of Vitamin D which the body can have difficulty changing to an active form.  Also, Thiamine is needed to active Vitamin D.   Hypothyroidism can be caused by Thiamine deficiency.  The thyroid is an organ that uses lots of thiamine.  sometimes thyroid deficiency can also cause hyperthyroidism, or swings between both hyper- and hypo-thyroidism. We need more Thiamine when we're sick with an infection (like Covid) or injured.  We need...

      Gluten free and oat free bars not sugary?

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      I'm looking for bars or non perishable snacks for my 2 kids. They are 5 and 3. The 3 year old seems sensitive to oats also. We do a lot of long hikes and bike rides. They eat mostly fresh foods but for these rides and hikes we need easy and non perishable. Also that taste good! We do a lot of larabars and freeze dried apples but those are getting old. Any ideas?

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Oh, @MagsM, Sorry you had that happen with Niacin.  500mg is the maximum amount of Niacin one should take.  Niacin works hand in hand with Thiamine, so a big influx like that can imbalance thiamine if not supplemented at the same time.  All the B vitamins work together in concert.  Niacin in doses at 500 mg or above have been used by doctors to lower triglycerides levels and raise HDL, the good cholesterol.  Pharmaceuticals to do the same thing are more expensive and thus more profitable for physicians. Has your doctor tested you for H. Pylori?  An infection by H. Pylori can be tested for by your doctor.  H. Pylori can cause low tTg IgA results, too.   I would hold off on the...

      Thank you so much for this in depth analysis. I am currently taking Vit D3/K2 5000IU daily.i started taking a flushing Niacin but foolishly took a 500mg tab and nearly passed out! I have just ordered a gut microbiome genome test and it will be interesting to see what my current balance of microbes are. After I finish diagnosis I will definitely go gluten free. Diagnosis will inform exactly how strict I’ll need to be regarding cross contamination etc. my focus will be on healing the gut. I have also been focusing on the oral microbiome - cutting out FL and using more natural products as well as daily oil pulling. I read from some of your other forum entries about Benfothiamine and I’ll definitely order...

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You are right! The logo the have on their packages got me confused--it looks like they are less than 20ppm, not certified GF. Thanks for catching that! My brain also zeroed in on this "less than 10ppm" but I should have seen the rest...
