I remember going to my in laws the weekend before and having a big Italian meal- pasta, breads, etc. I also had a chicken finger sub that weekend.

Pizza sounds good! Enjoy!! I tried gluten-free pizza from my local pizza place recently and it was very good!

I remember because I got so sick. It was a sandwich from Jack in the Box. I was going to gluten challenge so I went by Jack in the Box on the way home since they were only a few blocks away to start it. They had grilled French bread sandwiches on a promotion. I got one with ham and swiss, got sick, and decided I didn't want to put up with being that sick for a month. I would have chosen something a little better had I known it was going to be my last full-gluten meal. :lol:

December 27, 2009: Breakfast at my in-laws house, the main features of which were my mother-in-law's special bread that she only makes at Christmas and my sister-in-law's cookies. Ugh. I was already suffering from three days of family festivities (my own personal gluten challenge, although I had been avoiding obvious gluten when possible) and that pushed me over the edge. I haven't intentionally consumed gluten since.

It was a gluten challenge - a tablespoon of vital wheat gluten in a bowl of yogurt. YUCK! But it told me that gluten does NOT sit well with me. :P

I'm sure it was something with Barilla pasta. It was so filling and of course, too filling.

Hi I thought I would update on this I went for the camera. They had to stop the procedure as I was in distress so they only managed to get one sample. I can not remember a thing so I dont know exactly what happened.

Be glad you don't remember :( I remember the colonoscopy and endoscopy..they kept giving me the shots of pain relievers...but I felt it all and remember the whole thing! At least I know I have Celiacs...so it was worth it. Hope you get some answers!

I have one tiny memory of trying to sit up. I have a liver scan on Monday so that should go better :lol: . I was reading online if you do show distress they should stop it straight away but that must have been terrible for you.

Fried shrimp and hushpuppies, although now I wish I had gone to paneras or my fav mexican place! Papa johns perhaps.. Those are what I miss right now. However, going gluten-free has made a big difference..not trying to figure out other intolerances.

sherrylynn Contributor

Pizza from pizza hut and a 6 inch sandwich from subway. all on the same night :lol:

I knew I would miss those, but I will miss the subway sandwich the most. :P

Spanakopita. Although I was feeling pretty bad at the time - and stressed about not being able to eat bread/pasta/cake etc for the rest of my life - so I didn't really enjoy it.

I do really miss filo pastry though.

Aphreal Contributor

Don't remember but it appears my seafood dinner the other night had it. My fault for not really investigating the ingredients.

bonnie blue Explorer

My husband's delicious spaghetti with meat sauce and cheesy garlic bread, mmmmmm it was so good!

Hos Newbie

I'm going to PIG OUT tomorrow at my favorite Chinese buffet and eat orange chicken and noodles until it hurts... literally. <_<

I just had my EGD and was just diagnosed. My last meal will be tasty but I'm going to have a good attitude about all this so no worries.

Lys Newbie

New to the forum I was diagnosed last week....

Last gluten mean: In and out double double, no onions..... Fox pumpkin beer!!! Amazing in every way!!!

AngiePants Newbie

When I first suspected gluten intolerance I was very very well behaved & cut it all out right away, which made me feel amazing. But between talking to my doctor about it and having the blood test I went on a massive gluten binge, pigging out on hamburgers and kebabs and just about anything else that comes wrapped in gluteny goodness. Probably just as well - when I got my results, the antibodies were so high (>300) I didn't need a biopsy to confirm! :P

Rowena Rising Star

A sandwich... From a bakery called Paradise bakery. It was good, but sickening... Sad to say. I also had gotten sick because someone ate tuna fish around me... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA... Silly law firm getting so much bad stuff to eat for me. Between gluten and tuna, I can never eat here... (Thankfully I bring my own lunches now.... mmmmm cinnamon bread. yum. I am so glad I don't have to completely give up bread and that there is gluten free stuff out there.)

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Hello, @MogwaiStripe, Vitamin D is turned into its activated forms by Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can affect Vitamin D activation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14913223/ Thiamine deficiency affects HLA genes.  HLA genes code for autoimmune diseases like Celiac, Thyroiditis, Diabetes, etc.  Thiamine deficiency inside a cell triggers a toggle switch on the gene which in turn activates autoimmune diseases carried on the gene.  The reference to the study is in my blog somewhere.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll down to the drop down menu "Activities" and click on blogs.

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
