I'm On My Way To Hospital.

Well, I'm having another one of these episodes that I've been having. I'm at work. My daughter is going to come and pick me up and take me on over there now. I don't know what is causing this, but it's time to find out.

I feel like I'm going to faint away. I got up, ate everything I'm supposed to eat, was feeling fine, ate a chicken breast with sweet baby ray's bbq sauce and crashed.

I need to go there and stop screwing around with this, so here I go.

Karen G., please look in your personal messages.

Connie I hope your feeling better soon. Could you maybe try going with less processed food for a bit? That might help. There may be something in the BBQ sauce that your body isn't tolerating right now. I know a chicken breast with just salt and maybe pepper or a couple fresh herbs rubbed might be a bit boring but sometimes at first bland and boring is what we need.

Keep us posted on how your doing.

Praying there is a good doctor at the hospital for you to see.

Chicken breasts could be injected with broth that could contain gluten.

Good luck, Connie, and I'm sure you'll be able to get to the bottom of this. It doesn't sound gluten related at all and more like a blood sugar problem. I had those big time when undiagnosed and then after, until I healed a bit. Keep us posted on your progress and feel better soon!

I feel like I'm going to faint away. I got up, ate everything I'm supposed to eat, was feeling fine, ate a chicken breast with sweet baby ray's bbq sauce and crashed.

A friend made us "gluten-free" pulled pork with Sweet Baby Ray's, but I was suspicious, so I faked like I ate it. (Some of us celiacs have to make sure something is safe before it passes our lips.) The next day, when I was in the store I read the labels of a couple of the different flavors of Sweet Baby Ray's, seeing there were ingredients I recognized as gluten-laden, I gave myself a little pat on the back and noted to myself not to trust whatever that friend makes for us again. And she says she's gluten-free too! (Just not a serious celiac like me.) Celiacs really can't mess around with processed foods. Learn to make your own sauce, and if your recipe calls for catsup or another substance that might have gluten, don't use that recipe.

I absolutely can't eat chicken breast. It gives me a big stomach ache. Another friend (serious celiac) pointed to something found in the white meat that is not in the dark meat, so I eat chicken legs and thighs mostly, but can handle wings and backs too.

Sweet Baby Rays is indeed gluten-free. There may be ingredients in there that don't agree with everyone but that would be a separate issue.

Hope Connie is doing ok....

im new to this.... what happens that we could have to go to the hospital? and what can they actually do for us there?

I went to a party where they had strange food from africa and i ate everything they claimed was gluten free but got sicker than I have ever been since bein diagnosed so wife took me to hospital. pretty much just fell apart like she described, all at once.

I hope you feel better, let us know what the doctors say.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
