Sick!

Last night I made a gluten-free pizza (with LOTS of cheese). I didn't have that much - maybe one medium piece. About 20 minutes later, I"m in the bathroom with diarrhea. Only one trip to the bathroom. But I was real nauseaus too. I ended up taking a Compazine for the nausea and I felt fine (went to sleep) about an hour later.

What happened to me???

What kind of cheese was it? What were the other ingredients you put on the pizza?

I've only been gluten-free for 2 days now. And I have never had any striking results from gluten. But I'm doing a trial 6 months gluten-free diet because one anti-gliadin came back positive, the most specific came back negative and still waiting on another one.

My usual symptoms while on wheat is not that bad. Low grade nausea - nothing real bad or anything. No daily diarrhea or anything like that.

When I was on gluten, everytime I ate normal pizza - I wouldn't feel well at all.

I'm kind of thinking it's the cheese??

The pizza I made last night had mozzerella cheese, ragu sauce, fresh mushrooms -- that's it.

What kind of Mozzarella cheese was it? Which brand? Also, was it brick or pre-shredded?

Possibly you are having troubles with dairy.

Some celiacs have problems with dairy at first because of damage to the intestines. Once that heals then you may be fine with dairy. I was on and off intolerant my whole life until after I went gluten free. I now have no problems at all with milk.

I can't have cows milk but I'm fine with goats milk. I don't drink glasses of it but I like to have cereal.

I don't have any problems with yogurt or ice cream or small amounts of cheese ( like 1 slice).

So, it seems I'm having problems with large amounts -- like on a pizza.

Could be the pizza crust. If it had bean/soy flour in it it could cause you gastro upset and nausea. Or potato starch/flour or corn... lots of possibilities.

Could also just be you are only on day 2 of eating gluten free and your body is all confused. You might have withdrawls or trouble digesting.

Lots of possibilities. I hope you feel better soon!

I don't do well with a lot of the other grains. I have been experimenting with different ones and react to so may of them. Buckwheat, rice, quinoa all do their share. I am having a hard time with potaotes too so I avoid potatoe starch. I just bought garbanzo flour (chick pea) and am going to try to make some bread with it and see how it goes. Did you check to see what the pizza dough was made of? You may need to start investigating that too before you find a pizza dough that is ok for you.

I can't even think about having anything with soy flour...it gives me the same sort of TOXIC effect that gluten does.

Good luck in finding out what did you in. oh.......and you know about dairy too....

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
