Kissing Problem.


B R I A N A

Recommended Posts

So I keep a food journal of everything I put in my mouth to see if I get sick or have bad mood swings I can go back five days prior [[since that's how long it takes me to get the mood swings]] and see what went wrong.

I've been noticing the days I kiss someone five days later I always get depressed. Is there anyway... like am I just screwed when it comes to kissing and just have to live with getting sick five days later?

Have your partner brush their teeth before kissing them. :)

The mood swings and your allergy are probably not related, especially due to the large gap in time.

A lot of Celiacs have a more delayed response to gluten.

I feel like Briana's responses are related.

And when it comes to kissing, like Shay said, have them brush their teeth--a rinse is not enough!

me and my boyfriend have lunch together everyday and everyday he eats something that has gluten in it, and after lunch he would always walk me to my class and i would kiss him goodbye, but i would always feel bad after. So i stopped kissing him after lunch and it made a whole lot of a difference, so that may be the problem

It's different though.

I'm in highschool. And we like kiss at school like between periods.

Is there anyway to fix this?

Have him bring his toothbush to school with him, so after lunch he can brush them real quick then kiss you.

My bf always makes sure he brushes his teeth after he eats wheat.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
