Sick Of Getting Glutened

So once again, I've glutened myself. I sick, sick, sick, of it. I don't feel horrible yet, but it is headed that way hour by hour. Grrrr. So what stupid thing did I do? I used a glass dish that was recently used to heat gluten soup. Washing is supposed to take care of that problem. The other possibility is that I was desperate to get chicken out of my teeth at work and pulled a strand of hair to floss one tooth in the ladies room. I use gluten-free shampoo. I barely touched the underside of my tongue with my washed fingertip. I miss the old days where I could pick my teeth and bite my nails with abandon.

I just can't seem to get healthy no matter how hard I'm trying. I'm going for gluten depression right now. I know you have all been there, and I'm not alone, but tonight, it feelis like I'm the most miserable creature on earth. Right now I'm wondering how I can live another 50 years if I really need to be in a glass bubble.

Now it is time for a gluten nappy-nap.

Wanna share your misery and perk me ups?

Aww hun I feel you. It's so frustrating. Especially when a simple mistake does it, trust me, I've done it thousands of times, either from not knowing or just not being careful enough. Its so frustrating.

It does get easier, but I've been at this awhile now and just somehow glutened myself the other day and have a huge p%$#@# cyst on my chin (thats what it does to me, comes out painfully on my skin within 15 minutes or so). I don't even really know what did it. I went out for sushi the other night and had a roll that had some cream cheese in it, all I can think is maybe the cream cheese had an additive or something. Meh. I hate having to be so careful.

It sucks, there isnt much you can do but be good to yourself and take care of yourself afterwards. I hope you feel better!

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
