ive been off gluten for about 4 months now, i was meant to be tested for celiac but by the time i got to the doctors id decided it was time i was off gluten for good due to my stomache pains becoming unbearable, my mum always thought it made me nicer when i wasnt on gluten but my moods are up and down, when theyre up im extremely happy and when theyre bad theyre really bad. does this occur for anyone else? i am also very tired a lot, often taking naps during the day when before i didnt.

Irritability is the first symptom that I can notice when I get glutened. I was pretty much always irritable before diagnosis. Fatigue is also one of my glutening symptoms. It takes awhile to figure out the diet so that you don't get glutened so much anymore. I hope things get better soon.

I have had a problem with irritability for years and had no clue to what was making me irritable until I read about the toxins some intestinal bacteria produce which triggers mood problems. The author was Hulda Clark, PhD, ND. She used medical research and her dignostic methods to conclude that some enteric organisms such as Shigella and toxin producing E. Coli produced toxic chemicals which left people irritable and depressed. I started using her programs years ago, one of the herbs she recommended was turmeric. I took that for only a short time before my depression and irritability began to disappear. I had had gastroenteritis several times and was an undiagnosed Celiac so not only had acquired the organisms earlier but was very succeptable to gastrointestinal infections. Metametrix Labs offers an enteric stool panel which identifies harmful organisms in the intestine.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia and @Russ H thank you both for your helpful advice and information. I haven't seen a GI in years. They never helped me aside from my inital diagnosis. All other help has come from my own research, which is why I came here. I will be even more careful in the future.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, you are welcome. After looking at this thread again, I would like to suggest that some of the other comments from @Russ H are worth following up on. The bird-bread may or may not be contributing to what you are experiencing, but it seems unlikely to be the whole story. If you have access to decent healthcare, I would write down...

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest ...

The bird-bread may or may not be contributing to what you are experiencing, but it seems unlikely to be the whole story. If you have access to decent healthcare, I would write down your experiences and questions in outline form and bring this to your Dr. I suggest writing it down so you don't get distracted from telling the Dr everything you want to say while you have their attention.

      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest 10 mg from flinging bread.  However, I would still suggest that @nancydrewandtheceliacclue take precautions against exposure in this activity. I'm not an expert, I could easily be wrong, but if someone is experiencing symptoms and has a known exposure route, it's possible that they are susceptible to less than 10 mg / day, or it is possible that there is/are other undetected sources of exposure that together with this one are causing problems. At any rate, I would want to eliminate any exposure until symptoms are under control before I started testing the safety of potentially risky activities. Here is another representation of what 10 mg of bread would look like. https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/10mgGlutenCrumbsJules.jpg Full article that image came from: https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/what-does-10-mg-of-gluten-look-like/

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia thank you for your reply and the link, that is very helpful to get a visual of just how small of an amount can cause a reaction. I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.
