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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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).

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.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
