Just Venting a Bit

Here I am, 1month gluten-free and it has been great!

But I think I got glutened last week -no idea from what exactly!

So, I had the digestion symptoms coming back 5 days ago; took some gas-x and miralax the 1st day and it helped making them go away...my digestive tract feels ok now, but the fatigue/ brain fog, and my dyshidrosis & acne came back too -I feel like crap.

I hope this isn't going to last too long, 'cause this is tough and right now I just miss so much feeling good again!

So I guess I just needed to write it down, it helps a little bit already.

And I wanted to thank all of you guys, it's been a while I'm hanging around the board and reading treads, and it is fantastic how it helps reading your stories (for all the info, and the support!)

Sorry for the title typo, I meant "..Venting a Bit" of course :)

I hope you feel better! How long do the symptoms usually last if you accidentally digest gluten? Hopefully not too long.

I understand how you feel about the board, this has been great for me to have somewhere I can go to learn more and ask for help.

Well, I think this is the first time I got glutened, so I have no idea how long this "usually" lasts...I guess I'll find out now :)

I thought maybe you type with an exotic accent. I just type with a boring Midwest one.

Sorry you feel bad. I know that my iron pills & some of my vitamins bug me sometimes (no gluten just hard to process). Am having a vitamin holiday today.

Hi,

I have been gluten free for YEARS, so I was so surprised last week to be feeling really lousy after lunch a couple of days in a row. Come to find out, the shrimp sauce I thought was okay was not--it listed WHEAT as an ingredient! I think now I must go back to square one and really be diligent about reading the ingredients in everything. Hope you are doing great today and that you are getting over being glutened. Good ending to my story was that I slept like a baby last night, once that was all out of my system. Best wishes.

kareng, this time it was a typo but at times my sentences can seem strange -it's because I'm french :)

welda, it's interesting. I am so focused on understanding the diet & feeling better now, that I didn't even think about how it must feel being an old pro of the gluten-free diet...I guess we all have our distracted moments, weather we're newbies or not ;) otherwise, I also guess (hope?) that it gets easier??

anyway, thanks again for your replies!

feels better already, just to read you -and I'm sure I'll wake up feeling even better tomorrow!

      How long does it take to gain weight?

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
