Do any of you sometimes allow yourself to have something with gluten in it if you've been craving it for so long, and just deal with feeling sick afterword?

Never. I don't think that I could intentionally eat something knowing it was going to make me sick. Also, my DH breaks out horribly for about 2 weeks after a gluten accident and there is no way I would make myself that miserable on purpose.

Never ever never!

Never!

In a word, NO!!!!!! I wasted the first 36 years of my life because of this disease. No gluten touches my lips for any reason whatsoever. If I have to offend someone to protect my health that person will no longer be a part of my life.

This has already been sufficiently answered, but NOOOOOO!!!

No, besides the fact the I never want to feel how I did before, this would cause damage to your intestine and that can take a while to heal. The other problems that you can get from continuing to eat gluten, even once in a while, is not worth the pizza or donut.

I got sick the other day, not because of gluten but because I didn't eat enough, and I threw up a couple times. It brought me back to the horrible days when I was sick all the time and I was thinking that I'm so glad that I know what it was the made me that way and now I've been so much better that I never want to go back.

I do not eat gluten knowingly.

I will eat some dairy things knowing that later I might have a stomach ach. It is just different with gluten, though.

Never!!! I was too sick for tooo long. I have no desire to go back to feeling that way.

There is no way I would intentionally eat gluten ever. I know what it is like to be sick like I was and will not go through that if I have any control over it.

I've been tempted, walking down the grocery store isle - the cherry pop tarts call to me. :D

But then I think about all that gluten ripping and shredding it's way through my small intestine and pop tarts lose their appeal. Besides, why bother! That's the great thing about the gluten free diet - there's no forbidden foods, just forbidden ingredients. Now all I need to do is convince Glutino to make gluten-free pop tarts. :wub:

Never. If cross contamination can make me so ill, I shudder to think what a piece of bread. or pie, or whatever would do to me! And, if it did nothing, I shudder to think what THAT would do to my psyche! No, I've finally forgotten what "bread" tastes like, and actually raved :) over my gluten-free Irish Soda Bread tonight!

Guest nini

no never... I have convinced my brain that gluten is poison, so I would never ever intentionally ingest anything poisonous into my body. Not even tempted at all. Though I do wish that Krispy Kreme made a gluten free donut!

FaithInScienceToo Contributor

No way!

Why on Earth would I want to?

I love myself...

After I was first diagnosed, I strayed a few times, but I quickly learned that it was a bad idea. I have accidently ingested gluten a few times since, but have not knowingly touched anything with gluten since October 2000 (a beer, soon regretted).

Guest barbara3675

Wouldn't think of it. I wish I were as firm about eating properly to lose weight as I am about not eating gluten...I would look like a million bucks!!!!! My mom has had tummy troubles or as she puts it bowel problems for so long. She just won't begin to think it might be a gluten problem and at the age of 87 we can't convince her otherwise. I would like to think I may be avoiding those problems by eating gluten-free and I am the gene carrier. It really isn't that bad anyway....

Not for me! The few times that I've slipped-up and felt so awful are enough to answer the question. The pain and suffering far out-weigh any possible enjoyment from a donut, etc.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily basis.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.

      Thanks for your input.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
