You guys, I just have to complain to somebody...

I was so sick last night.... :( No details....too gross.

Let's just say it involved me and the "throne"....chills, dry heaves, upset stomach, basically, the works.

Honestly, at one point, I just curled up on the bath mat, too weak to make it back to the bed. :blink:

Way too much drama for 4:00 am in the morning. :rolleyes:

The only unusual food that I ate yesterday was a taco salad from Wendy's which I thought was gluten-free :blink: ...maybe my tummy was having other probs. besides gluten though.

All I know is I was Sooo sick! :(

Anyway, enough about all of that. I just needed to vent. :rolleyes:

Thanks for reading.

I know how awful you must feel. I hope you feel better soon. Just try to keep it light food on your stomach until it gets back to normal. Try drinking teas like peppermint too...that can really settle your stomach :D

Even if you didn't eat the salsa, fast food places are among the worst for cross contamination.

I wouldn't trust those salads again :angry: especially if the salsa has gluten :blink:

Thanks everyone for your well-wishes! :)

I am feeling better. I didn't eat much yesterday. I tried to give my tummy a break...and made sure I only ate things I was SURE were gluten-free. :rolleyes:

Good grief! I haven't felt that bad in awhile. Thank you everyone for your understanding. ;)

Blessings. -Julie

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Celiac getting dentures

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
