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.

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
