Gluten Reaction Or Anxiety

Hi, I started having diarehha, nausea, and the shakes last Wen. and the symptoms are still persisting. At first I thought it was the flu, then anxiety, and now I'm thinking its a gluten reaction. I have diarehha 24/7 and feel very nausiated. I also have uncontrolable shaking as well. I am not sure if this is anxiety or a gluten reaction and would really appreciate some input. Like, how long does your gluten reaction last. Do you have similar symptoms. I have only been awake for 2 hours and have already used the bathroom 7 times. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Well first off if this has been going on for over four days now you may want to consider seeking medical attention as you are probably dehydrated and you will have lost a lot of essential nutrients if you have been having diarrhea that badly for that long. That being said I am not in the medical profession so that is just my opinion.

When I get glutened I usually take an Imodium AD right away and I usually ok within a day and pretty much back to normal in two or three days. That being said I am not super sensitive (I can take the bun off a burger and eat it or pick croutons off a salad and be fine) so if you are really sensitive you may have a longer reaction time. If you do decide to not get looked at at least drink lots of water and make sure you are getting electrolytes.

You should get to the doctor. Are you a diagnosed celiac? If you are then you may be getting some continued gluten as usually the D doesn't last quite that long when we get glutened. Everyone is different of course. You could have food poisoning and D 24/7 for as long as you have had it should be looked into by a doctor. Hopefully you are staying hydrated but if you can't even keep liquid in your stomach and you are very weak you may want to consider a trip to the ER. Have someone else drive you if you can.

I have been diagnosed with celiacs for a little over two years now. I do also have anxiety issues, but my stomach is really messed up and I could have gotten glutened, but I don't know what from. Except that I ate a Mounds bar on Tuesday. Are those gluten free? I thought they were...

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
