But, I Wasn't Glutened!

Monday night had a massage with some sandlewood essential oil added to massage oil (my biotone has never been a problem). Post nasal drip began, then constantly had to clear my throat...ridiculously constant.

Tuesday cold symptoms (sneezing, runny nose, sore throat) but didn't really feel physically too tired.

Wednesday continued with Tuesday symptoms, but a deep chest cough and sick to stomach in the evening (thought I was gonna lose it) which is unuual (only had baked salmon, brown rice, and sugar snap peas). The only change for today was adding some oregano supplements my naturopath gave me to help with sinus.

Thursday chest cough and feel exhausted...stuffy nose, weak, achey, tired, blah. It's 3:30 pm and now a little sick at stomach.

The cold symptoms can typically be reaction for me...but never this bad, nor for this long, and seems to get worse each day. What will tomorrow bring??

Any suggestions please? Is this a glutening...from sandlewood essential oil? I only used a tiny bit in a 4 oz bottle of biotone.

Could you possibly have a bona fide virus. I blame everything on food, forgetting that I might actually be sick in real life.

Hope you feel better soon.

I would think you have a cold, given the cold symptoms. (Post nasal drip can cause stomach upset quite commonly.)

I do believe you are sick my dear.

...didn't want to admit it. Hmmmmm, I know what you mean though by blaming it all on food.

Thanks for your replies.

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
