I have been gluten free for over 2 weeks and I've started having dreams about eating gluten! LOL! The two nights ago I dreamt I ate a piece of cinnamon roll and felt so guilty when I woke up. Then last night I dreamt that I ate gluten on accident!!! Has anyone else had wheat dreams?!

I used to have them all the time. It's been a long time since I've had one though. I went gluten-free in December of 06. The gluten-free dreams for me were a type of anxiety dream. They were a reflection of how anxious and frustrated I was about going gluten-free. I never felt guilty for eating gluten, but rather horrified, angry and scared. But that's a reflection of my issues with the gluten-free diet. Everyone has different frustrations and it's not uncommon for them to manifest in dreams.

I dream about pancakes... butter- and syrup- soaked pancakes. Not just eating them... but making them on the skillet. I relish the entire process. Luckily, you can learn to make your favorite treats using gluten-free flours or *hopefully* find a gluten-free bakery in your area. :)

I'm excited to make Open Original Shared Link. No guilt... except for those pesky calories.

When I was first diagnosed I had nightmares about eating gluten. Finally they went away after a couple of weeks.

I've had them too, same reaction, horrified. one day I woke up trying to throw up the Papa John's pizza I'd dreamed that I'd accidentally eaten... when someone hid some in my gluten-free Uno chicago pizza box.

I had my first gluten dream last week - I was eating graham crackers! LOL! In my dream, at first I thought they were gluten-free and then realized that they tasted "normal" and then I was trying to throw them up - I thought it was funny that it took 2 months to dream about it.

I had my first gluten dream last night! I was at a party (I think with my soccer team, most of whom have been extremely supportive since I went gluten-free on July 8/09). Someone was eating from a bag of chips and I just took a handful and started eating them! Someone asked me "you can eat those??" and I was like "omg I forgot!" I checked the ingredients and sure enough they were not gluten-free ...When I woke up I was relieved that I hadn't actually been poisoned!

Mine are usually about pizza! The last one, was a gluten free pizza place accidentally serving me real pizza. Of course I would know right away but dreams can be crazy!

I think all of us have these dreams. Mine was a delicious fire grilled hot dog on a bun. It was so good, then I remembered I can have buns...I woke up in tears, still worried I had glutened myself. It ruined my entire day!!!

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      The Happy Tart review

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
