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.

      @Scott Adams Thank you so much for this thoughtful and encouraging reply 💛 It really helps me feel less alone navigating all of this! I’ve definitely been strict gluten-free, but I’ll admit — in the beginning, I honestly knew nothing about cross-contamination 😅 so it’s very possible my gut is still healing from that. I feel very abnormal because I am not a typical celiac or a typical Crohn's, so it makes me feel very stuck.

      Hi still the same unfortunately, they had to cancel my colonoscopy due to my trapped nerve , I'm awaiting some kind of scan , it was the nurses who  told me to refuse and asked a docter , and I was told to cancel and go back to my consultant , I think because my sciatic nerve is compressed between my herniated discs , the prep was enough I could handle , but the colonoscopy itself , they advised me to seek something different ,due to the position I had to be in and the movements , so I will update Wen I know more , thankyou for asking appreciated 🤗

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if...
