Hi Mario,

I'm sorry you are still feeling bad. It can sometimes take up to a week or more to get rid of the effects of gluten after an accident. You should be better soon, just make sure you don't have another accident for a while.

Happy Belated Birthday. Mine is today! I'm 32 years old. We went out to eat and I am hoping the meal was fine. I really don't want to get sick this week. It was a chicken breast on a salad. (grilled, and I forgot to tell them to make sure they cleaned the grill first! oops. I was so worried about the dressing and the croutons on the salad) I also ordered a plain baked potato, but as I sit here right now I realise I never got the potato. I hope my husband didn't pay for it...

God bless,

Mariann

Hi Mario,

Thanks for the Birthday wishes. No I don't have MSN, or any other chat features. But that's okay. I check my e-mail daily and feel free to e-mail me. I'll get right back to you. :)

It may take a while for you to get back on track. Just hang in there, and yes, it might be good to start back at the basics. The easy to digest foods that you were able to tolerate at the beginning. This will give your body a break while it heals.

God bless,

Mariann

Mario, this might be a little late, but do not forget to drink lots of water to replace the liquids you lost during the diarrhea bouts. Gatorade is good for this too as it contains essential electrolytes. Dehydration is a very real concern during times like this. Good luck!

Mario & Mariann - Happy Birthday to both of you! Mine was Feb. 17th (I turned 34) and that is the day I went gluten-free. So far so good! :D

Mario - I hope you feel better soon!

I have a question about accidents: If we discover our mistake within 20 minutes, will throwing up stop the reaction? Or will it cause even more problems? I ate three Pria bars, which have barley malt in them, and while I was eating the last one, learned that barley malt is bad! That was yesterday, last night and now I am just miserable! If I had gone and thrown up, would I have avoided this misery? :unsure:

Dessa,

Throwing up might help a little bit, but I think that once the reaction starts, there's not much that can be done about it. The symptoms are not caused directly by gluten, but rather by the body's immune system--and once the defenses are marshalled, they're going to do their "job" even if the gluten suddenly disappears!

I'm questioning myself, are rice cakes safe with peanut butter or kraft jams. I eat the quaker rice cakes natural..

Throwing up won't get rid of all traces of gluten. Even one microscopic speck is enough to make a lot of people react, and is enough to cause damage. The only thing I can think of that throwing up may help is that the body has less gluten to clear out of your system.

Hmmm, my body seems to have made it's own decision about vomiting <_< the last time I had an accident. I had NO control over it at all, It wanted OUT of my body. I guess my system has realized that gluten is a bad thing for me, and it wants no part of it.

As much as I would love to have a bite of pizza or something, I simply cannot knowingly do it. The repercussions were enough to stifle that Idea completely.

Blessings

My body is like that too- if it doesn't like something I ate, it doesn't stay down. I also tend to vomit when I get stressed out or really upset. Been like that for years.

When I went to see Passion of the Christ, I was so disturbed by the violence that I felt like I was going to throw up several times during the movie, and also felt queasy on through the next day. I guess I have a sensitive stomach.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this.

In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
