Maybe Its Just The Yeast...

I have been cheating on the diet lately, I know it is bad.

Background, I was diagnosed in Nov 2004 and weeks later became preg. Every thing is going well so far. Although I have cheated once or twice.

Here is my question, I will get sick if I come near a bread crumb. i took a pickle off my husbands sandwhich which was between lettuce and cheese and got sick almost immediately. (servers who touch pickles also touch bread...whoda thunk?)

Yet i have a small slice of cake and I have fine. (I think it is the pregnacy and cravings that make me not be able to have control) I have gone over the times I have cheated and there are not all that many. The only times I get sick to my stomach are the times it involves bread or bread like things. Coulld I have an allergy to the yeast in bread and not gluten.

I have had the blood test, which stated that I was sensitive to gluten or intolorant one but never been tested as a full blown celiac due to the diet seems to work and there is no meds out there.

Any advice??

You have never been tested for celiac? Were you gluten free when you were tested for intolerance. Whether you get symptoms or not you will get damage to your system if you are a celiac. Some people react to some things but not other things. Other don't react at all and then others react to every little bit. I think if you tested gluten intolerant then it is not just any yeast in the bread...I find that very unlikely...you need to be comitted to the diet though. When you ignore it you put yourself 40-100 times more likely to get cancer and other serious complications so I would really watch it. There are still many things we can eat that are delicious but I think the gluten free diet is what you need to be following. You need to check things such as lipsticks etc. and make sure you get a new toaster if you have not already because of the bread crumbs.....let me know if you any questions. :D

To other moderators...I pinned this here...I thought it belonged here if it doesn't just move it :lol:

Yes, the symptoms can vary from time to time, but your post has me concerned. Untreated celiac (and cheating counts as untreated, I'm afraid) is a risk factor for infertility and problem pregnancies. Now, if ANY is not the time to cheat, unfortunately.

What tests did you have done and what were the results? False positives are almost unheard of.

Your risk for miscarriage is now way up because of the cheating, unfortunatley. Please don't cheat if you have celiac disease or if you're gluten intolerant, and if you haven't gotten a firm diagnosis, see your dr. and try for one. That way you won't have to continue to question it in the future. Good luck to you and feel better.

      Might want to see a rheumatologist also, as if this is an autoimmune disease they might be better equipped to to handle and treat. I was finally diagnosed after a biopsy on one of my quads. Condition known as IBM or inclusion body myositis . Good luck  Good luck

      Wends is correct in that for generations the food pyramid chart we were given with carbs at the base is incorrect. The average person gets far too many of their calories from carbs and coincidentally, more calories than they need for good health since carbohydrate rich foods are also calory rich foods. The body can learn to convert protein and fat into energy more efficiently when carbs are withheld. This is the basis of the ketogenic diet and why it works so well. I am not sure I would go full keto for a developing child however. Carbs are not evil. The problem isn't carbs per se but too many carbs.

       In terms of a low carb diet the thing to remember is that it is not a “no carb” diet. Far from it. There are a lot of misconceptions. Real food is the key. Avoiding refined sugars and starches. In the textbook that doctors use it states that “Carbohydrates” are not essential to life, unlike proteins and fats. Glucose on the other hand is essential, yes, and the liver makes and tightly regulates all it needs in the presence of adequate calories from proteins and fats. It’s biochemistry 101.  My personal view is that the NHS advice is out of date. And no wonder the life expectancy and quality of life of people with diabetes down the road is reduced - not to mention the cost to the NHS when complications arise decades after diagnosis because too much insulin to keep numbers in range is like a bandage to cover up while under the surface the damage is still going on. Retinopathy. Peripheral neuropathy. Sorry, don’t want to doom and gloom. But it’s true. The fuel you choose today dictates tomorrow. The information is out there in the scientific papers. It’s a can of worms but there is decades of scientific literature to back up a natural low carb diet. Professor Tim Noakes of Cape Town university went through a three year trial (and won) after a dietitian accused him because he recommended weaning a child on to meat after breastfeeding. They said they needed carbohydrates. He’s a professor of sports and exercise and medical doctor with diabetes. There’s a whole host of Professors and medical doctors and dietitians and medical professionals around the world advocating for real food and essentially a low carb diet. Humans evolved over millennia on real food. None of the modern high carb ultra processed or modern breads of the last century or so. Check out the Public Health Collaboration UK based charity. There’s conference videos online and free info. I think type 1 diabetes was covered a few years ago. Dr David Cavan UK specialist. Professor Knoakes also came out with a great cookery book called Superfood for Superchildren…from toddlers to teens. It is part of the Real Meal Revolution series of healthy eating. It sounds like youre on this already with breastfeeding and eating healthy so good on you! So sorry about the cards your little one has been dealt but with the right education and diet it is totally manageable and there’s no reason not to have stable blood sugars and have a long and happy life without diabetes complications. Same as children diagnosed with coeliac disease, a healthy naturally gluten free diet is the antidote to the gluten poisoning. Sugar and refined starches are toxic to diabetics. With modern technology of blood glucose monitors it’s easy to figure out suitable foods by how different foods effect the blood glucose level. Sorry, the reference of igA deficiency possibility was to Trent’s reply regarding Total igA and “artificially low” positive test. Not the case as the NHS screen total igA. In terms of poo signs. The Guts UK charity has loads of great info.

      Hair loss is also a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.     Peripheral neuropathy, another thiamine insufficiency symptom, can cause a feeling of itchiness on the skin without a rash.
