Hives After Eating Noodles... Help

So on Monday I had homemade chicken noodle soup for lunch and in the middle of eating it I broke out in hives all over my chest and face. No other problems and it went away within about and hour or two. Tuesday I decide to eat exactly as I had on Monday and sure enough in the middle of eating the hives came back and again went away within an hour or two. Today I ate Ramon Noodles for lunch and broke out in hives again.

So now some background. I have a appointment to have an endoscopy done next thursday as I have had a suspicion of gluten intolerance for quite some time. Being back on gluten for the last how many months has been awful, but I just feel I need to know and even if the endoscopy comes back negative I am still going back to eating gluten free.

So my question is - could I be allergic to something in the noodles? It's weird is I had a piece of whole wheat bread this morning with peanut butter for breakfast and didn't break out, but all 3 days I had white noodles in my soups so I'm thinking it had something to do with that. I don't know I'm confused. Maybe I just get different symptoms from different things? I know when I drink beer I just get a really bad headache even if it's just one beer.

Anyone else have issues with hives and gluten intolerance?

Was the soup homemade or did it have preservatives and MSG and junk in it?

My guess is that the soup also contained iodized salt. Between the gluten in the noodles and the iodine in the salt, you experienced Dermatitis Herpetiformis, which many of us with celiac have. People with this condition usually have to ingest BOTH gluten and iodine to have a skin reaction. Since you indicated that you once ate gluten free but have only returned to eating gluten for an endoscopy, you may have become more sensitive, and that's why the dermatitis is appearing. Only people with celiac have Dermatitis Herpetiformis; therefore, I would guess that you probably have celiac.

      So sorry to hear you are going through this!   What OTC med did you take?

      Yep,yep,yep, called it from experience.  I've lived through SIBO and Candida myself.  I get a different sorts of reactions to dairy, high sugar consumption, and gluten.  I react to Casein, the protein in dairy.   Try the AIP diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne designed it and is a Celiac herself.  Her book, the Paleo Approach, has been most helpful.

      Gluten Allergy

      Yes, I know.   Without sufficient Folate, Cobalamine, and Pyridoxine, the body can't get rid of high homocysteine levels.  High homocysteine levels make one restless, interferes with sleep and resembles ADHD symptoms.  High homocysteine levels occur in Celiac Disease.  Chronic high histamine levels lead to high homocysteine levels.

      You called it @knitty kitty.  I went to another health care provider for another opinion, and based on some tests they did, they suggested I might also be dealing with a fungal issue (candida and/or mold).  I saw that you mentioned before in this chain that some people on this forum also get Candida infections.  So it seems that I am possibly dealing that issue in my gut as well. I think some of the symptoms that I've been not able to understand now make a lot of sense within this context (such as why eating dairy and sugar sometimes causes me to get headaches, joint pain, chills, feel like I have the flu... if these things are making the candida infection worse by feeding the candida, and then my body responds by trying to fight it off, then I basically am fighting off an infection, which is exactly what it feels like).  The flu-like reaction that I get when I eat dairy is a distinct reaction than the one I get from getting glutened (which is also bad, but different: headache, sharp abdominal pains, gas, diarrhea). That's what made me think there was something else at play.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By lmemsm · Posted

      I'm concerned about calcium.  I don't think I'm getting enough especially since I ended up having to get off dairy when I went gluten free.  However, if you have too much calcium, it can deposit in the wrong places and you can get thinks like bone spurs.  I'd like find a decent supplement for that.  Was thinking of looking into the algae based calcium supplements since they're more natural than some of the others available, but seem rather expensive.  When possible, I try supplement with food sources.  One or two Brazil nuts usually have the full RDA for selenium.  One Barbados cherry has the daily RDA for vitamin C.  I also use seaweed to help supplement iodine since I don't use iodized salt.
