...what it feels like to be glutened? I feel exactly the way I did before I started the gluten free diet. Nauseated, in pain, tired, don't want to do anything. I don't want to be here at work, which is something I feel often, but this time its just because I would rather be home in bed, sleeping away the disgusting feelings. Oh and did I mention food seems gross right now?

Gah. How long does this feeling last? What's the best way to cope? What should I eat while I feel this way? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

some people recommended some yoga poses that can help.

I think there are some postings here on this forum about glutening and yoga, or some other places on the net.

I find that plain-ish rice helps me. That and sips of water.

Yoga helps stimulate your lymphatic system which helps speed up the removal of toxins from your system. Additionally since you've probably upset your intestines a bit, a probiotic of sorts may help. Try to stick with things that are easy on the digestive system.

My son says Glutenfreeda's oatmeal with flax settles his D stomach. I also pump him full of yogurt. Not sure it helps, but at least I feel like I'm doing something to help. Get extra rest and try to clear your calendar as much as possible. Pamper yourself as much as possible...

I had to do an elimination diet before I started to feel better.

I dropped all processed foods. I kept a food journal.

I found out a few foods that are allergies, and, it turns out, quite a few foods that are gluten free but still have enough gluten to set off my symptoms, since I seem to be pretty sensitive.

Perhaps you are very sensitive as well?

Many of the other symptoms - like the exhaustion - I could see as part of the healing process. But the nausea makes me wonder if you are still getting gluten somehow, or another food that might bother you.

      confirmed via biopsy, quite depressed

      i am australian. we do have plenty of substitutes, but most are very expensive compared to the originals. i believe i'll just stick to home cooked meals and not have many treats at all. it's sad but it's just so much easier. also, ive heard far too many horror stories of people ordering gluten free food from restaurants and cafés, explicitly telling servers and kitchen staff that cross contamination is a strict no go, and they still get very sick. until i find a reasonably priced fully gluten free kitchen somewhere, i am not eating out for my safety and sanity.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By The Logician · Posted

      To Trent’s, yes, from what i’ve read it is not uncommon for digestive systems to become less tolerant to gluten over time. Many types of sensitivity or allergies arise in older people who never had a problem. I don’t see why you are focusing on anything but the fact that after years of my sensitivity to gluten, for whatever reason , it has disappeared after a bout of antibiotics. What i’ve read is antibiotics can make gluten sensitivity worse. In any event, in my case, if I can still eat all the wheat products I want with no reaction after a month or more since my hospital stay this is something that should be investigated. Time will tell.

      I had a UTI, blood cultures are standard to insure that the infection does not get in the bloodstream which can lead to sepsis and death. In my case there was bacteria in my blood which necessitated 48 hours of antibiotic IV

      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

      Hi Cameo674. just read your post. Well wishes to a correct diagnosis so that you can get on track to healing and feeling better. Personally I know it’s good to have the eosinophilic disorder ruled out too, as this can show anti-ttg igA antibodies too. But usually without the anti-gliadin antibodies unless gliadin is an allergen for you. Thanks for posting the link to look up SNPs rs… numbers on another post. Was useful. Looking at your result, ”Celiac Associated HLD-DQ Typing: DQA1* Value: 05; DQA1*DQA11 Value: 05; DQB1* Value: 02; DQB1-DQB11 Value: 02; Celiac Gene Pairs Present Value: Yes; Celiac HLA Interpretation Value: These genes are permissive for celiac disease.  However, these genes can also be present in the normal population. Testing performed by SSOP.  So google failed me.  I think these results basically say I have genes, but everybody has these genes so this test was just to confirm that there is a vague possibility?  Maybe this test result explains why I do not have the horrible symptoms most individuals with celiac have?  I told the GI my assumption is that I am just gluten intolerant since I do not have the pain? So maybe this test explains why I have antibodies?” To me it reads.that you carry the high risk HLADQ2.5 haplotype.
