Amount Of Gluten Trigger When You React?

Does anyone else react worse days after a glutening?.....

So I had a small screw up on Saturday night. I was out and had a few drinks, which I know where gluten free b/c its what I always drink...plus I brought them with me!

Later on I had some bagged chips from the bar, which I have also had before with no problem. I checked the ingredients and everything to make sure.

I never eat chips b/c I try to avoid nightshades and unhealthy foods alltogether...but I splurge on occasion usually with no problems...

Well, out of supidity one of my friends offered me some BBQ chips. Of course since I was drinking I didnt think and just reached in and took one...and then thought "oh crap"....checked the ingredients and there it was "barley"....I didnt even read anymore...I only had one chip and thought well, ok, it wont be that bad...

I felt kinda naucious on and off that night, but nothing I couldnt handle... I figured it was just the chips and drinking in general....

I woke up on sunday with lack of sleep so I wasnt feeling that great b/c of that. I had a few extra trips to the bathroom and one case of D, but it wasnt a bad as I thought.....then Monday came and I started feeling super fatigued, gassy (foul smelling), and even woke up with a muscle pulled in my back. My sinuses started acting up and I got a headace..so I took IB profin and went to bed early last night....slept for 10 hours, woke up today and felt like a train ran me over...

Pretty much every muscle in my body is aching and IB profin is the only thing helping me...its 800mg and I'm still feeling pain....I've also been chilled on and off and get fatigued very fast...especially if I eat something....so I've been resting all day....

I didnt go to school, couldnt even think about working out. I'm also on day 40 of my menstrual cycle with still no period...so I cant tell if my problems are gluten or that....my cycle is so messed up and it has often been leaving me feeling sick. actually, on sunday, my water retnetion got so bad that it hurt to press my skin...then I felt it hurting my muscles...so maybe my muscle aching is from that...

So I'm thinking the way I feel is a combination of everything...I'm just wondering if it was the nightshades or gluten that bothered me more...or maybe I have just been overly stressed...dont you love going through these thought proccesses???

All I know is no more white potatoes for me...

sorry if my writing is all jumbled...I'm also having "brain fog" cant think straight!!! so frustrating!

It could be a combination, but honestly when I got glutened about 2 weeks ago, it was from cross-contamination of using the same fork, I didn't even think about and it knocked me on my butt for 48 hours. So yes, a little bit can definitely mess you up to the point of feeling like "death".

I hope you feel better.

While it definitely could be gluten, bear in mind that depending on where you are there is a nasty bug going around that causes fatigue, achiness, fever chills etc I had it this weekend (still have some of it) and so have most of the people in our office.

I hope you are feeling better soon. I feel the gluten 45 minutes after eating it and 3-4 minutes after smelling lots of it. When I ingest it, I'm like you and the aches and pains build for a few days then start to fade on day 4 or 5. Ibuprofin also helps me as well as taking a 1/4 of a benadryl (check gluten-free) to get some comfortable sleep on the weekends. I wish you well. I poisoned myself today, and am dreading the next few days.

      thank yo, i still eat a bit of dairy and a fair amount of processed foods. I wonder if I have sibo... I will look into that

      I think the best you will be able to do is to find out if gluten, or at least wheat, barley or rye is an intentional ingredient in a smoke product and only the manufacturer can answer that question. Since smokes are regulated by the AFT and not the FDA, allergens are not required to be declared in the labeling.

      yes i understand that pectin is gluten free ty.  i want to know if any cigars are gluten free its a simple question
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @brian weinstein! Gluten is a protein found in wheat barley and rye kernels. Pectin is a polysaccharide (a very complex sugar) found in the cell walls of fruits and vegetables. It is most commonly used as a thickening agent in food products, particularly jellies. So, pectin is naturally gluten free. That is not to the same as saying the cigar is gluten free.  Personally, I am reluctant to text you. I think most of us would feel the same way. Too many people already have access to our cell phone numbers.
