If You Can't Shake It, Read Your Labels

For two weeks now I've been sick...stomach sick...we have ate strictly at home and been feeling great.

Now it hasn't been bad just odd. Normally with glutening I get very sick for 1-2 days and I'm good. This has lingered on and except for last Saturday night which was the very painful boughts it hasn't followed the previous pattern.

I really thought I had a stomach/intestinal infection since I'm sick, and my wife has been sick too.

Things were much better and good to go...wake up last night shaking, cold sweats, nerves feel like they are burning. Here is a huge testimonial to Vitamin B and D. Since I read about that on here and taking them every day my entire life has straightened out. I always tell people I am 90-95 percent back to normal after given up gluten but there were a lot of yoyo days, not bad by any means but not really right. B&D which I've been taking daily for the past 3 months has totally fixed that.

Still had the stomach issues but no shaking, nerve problems, trouble sleeping, etc...all the things that come with me and gluten.

Last night all those showed up and the night before I was starting to not feel tired at night which is another side effect for me. I had skipped taking my B&D for 2 days, we've just been busy that if I don't take it in the early morning I skip it because I don't want to double up on the D3.

None of it made any sense except I've been taking a few Tums here and there. I knew Tums were gluten free but we had bought the smoothies last time around.

Look at the label, contains gluten :rolleyes:

Well crap :P

As with everytime you learn something new. The B&D really kept the other symptoms at bay, if I had not skipped them I'd continue to think I have some kind of infection but now I know. I take Omeprozole but was trying to cut down to 20mg from 40mg so I was taking a suppliment antiacid, which was tums smoothies.

So if you can't shake it, check the labels...

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
