I've been noticing a new trend.

My big meal is always lunch.

For about the past two weeks, after I eat lunch, I feel glutened or panicked.

Then, after about a half hour or so, it stops.

Can anyone relate to that or explain it?

I eat VERY lightly breakfast and supper, mostly just snacky things,

but everytime I eat my Big meal, I get like that, then it dissipates.

Look out now, Connie's using big words ! :lol:

My homemade pimento cheese

today, gluten-free PF Changs (since I can't eat for the next few days)

Yesterday, lettuce wrap that I thought I reacted to, but it stopped after 1/2 hour

My homemade chicken broth brown rice carrot soup,

if I eat a little bit, it doesn't happen. If I eat a big meal of anything, it happens, and I also feel sick to my stomach, but the whole jig stops after about half hour then I'm fine. And I always sweat, too. :huh:

Weird - maybe you're just eating too much, or there was cc somewhere.

BTW, I've been wanting to know - do you live in or near Louisville? If so, you should come to our support group at Bapt East if you haven't already. It's a good group of folks, and we're having a cookout next month. B)

I always feel horrible if I eat too much at once. Maybe you should eat a smaller lunch, or break it into 2 smaller snacks a couple hours apart?

It sounds to me like your stomach can't handle big meals now. Try sticking to many small meals throughout the day if possible. I've been told that is actually the healthy way to eat, even though I don't do it. I don't have any tummy issues though.

I'm guessing if you do this for a while that you'll be able to handle bigger meals before too long.

Good luck!

Maybe try splitting your midday meal in to two smaller ones. I do much better snacking throughout the day than if I eat a big lunch.

Connie are you by any chance going through menopause or pre-menopause? There was time when I looked into early menopause because I was trying to figure out what was causing my fertility problems. Anyway, this sounds similar to what I read about...Some women get menopause symptom triggered by eating. Read this hear and see if it sounds familiar: Open Original Shared Link

The first symptom there listed at the bottom is "crashing fatigue after eating".

Yes. I had a hormone level test and out of 3-22, I was a 3. Doc said no HRT.

I'm going to go read this article

Yeah I would just try eating several lighter meals like everyone suggested. I don't know anything about the HRT, but perhaps get a second opinion on that. Many of your posts sound like they could be related to really bad menopause symptoms.

He won't do the HRT because my mom had uterine cancer and my daddy passed of cancer in the jaw and throat (and I smoke).

I'm going to call over there and ask him to get me into an OBGYN,

certainly there's something can be done......

      Finally got in to doctor to get my referral and I lucked out and got into Gastro the same day - question about different transglutaminase results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like your gastroenterologist is becoming increasingly confident that celiac disease is the likely diagnosis based on both your older and newer lab results. Her suggestion to call each Monday for possible cancellations is actually a great strategy—especially given how long the wait is until your August 29th appointment. It’s also a good sign that she’s advocating for you to be seen sooner, which shows she’s taking your case seriously. The fact that some labs might not have been drawn yet due to overlap with your functional health doctor’s upcoming testing adds a layer of confusion, but that’s unfortunately common when multiple providers are involved. Hopefully, the GI’s...

      Worried about being isolated

      Thanks for sharing that film, @trents.  I am not sure how I missed that film as I see it is a few years old, but it is very good.  I think you should be fine if you take your own packed lunch and eat it from your own lunchbox etc.  Might be worth doing a lunchtime recce to see how cramped the room is before making a decision - for all you know, there may be other people  there who don't eat gluten?

      By cameo674 · Posted

      The GI doc messaged me this afternoon that she believes that the new blood work added to the old is definitely  looking like a celiac diagnosis is in my future.  She wants to me to call into scheduling each Monday to see if I can get my August 29th appointment moved up due to cancellations.  I have never had a doctor recommend that.  She also said there were additional labs that she requested still out that have not come back yet; so, they may have been missed drawing those since the functional health doctor has a whole slew of labs that I am suppose to be waiting until August 27th to do. I am still waiting to hear on whether or not she will allow me to do pill prep versus the typical...

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      By Alibu · Posted

      Well, I've made if from the pre-diagnosis forum to here!  I've been diagnosed with "latent" or "potential" celiac and my doctor has suggested me to go gluten-free before my appointment with him in October (first available, LOL).  My ttg-iga was 152, my EMA was positive, I have the gene, but my biopsy was negative (and he took 12 samples), so it makes sense to go gluten free to see if I improve. I know the basics - I can find lists of things to avoid, I know about hidden dangers, etc. all of that.  Where I'm struggling is just STARTING.  I need to go shopping and stock up on some staples.  My goal is to not try to find gluten-free alternatives, but to focus on naturally gluten-free foods like...

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It’s great that you were finally able to see a gastroenterologist—and even luckier to get in the same day as your referral! It sounds like your GI is taking a very thorough approach, which is reassuring given your complex symptoms and history. The confusion around your different tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibody results is understandable. The variation between your December and June labs may be due to multiple factors, including differences in the lab performing the test (Quest vs. Mayo Clinic), the specific assay used, and the amount of gluten you had been consuming before each test. Antibody levels can drop significantly when gluten is reduced or eliminated from the...
