12 days ago I accidentally glutened myself. I have been sick EVER since, diarrhea every day, several times a day. Feeling awful. I thought it was still the gluten but sheesh, 12 days??? Now, I did not have any D symptoms with my celiac diagnosis but I am now thinking now that maybe I am intolerant to something else. Again, with no gut problems, I was sure I had no other intolerances. It has been 8 months that I have been gluten-free, so I am a little surprised but from what I am reading, it may not be that uncommon to develop other intolerances?

Yuk. Now I don't even know where to start,

I had a similar experience last summer. Still don't know from what as I never had gut problems either. My symptoms were lots of aches and pains in muscles and joints and the big D. This went on for months. I finally went on an elimination diet to try to figure out if there was a sensitivity. Nothing really definitive showed up. I subsequently starting thinking it might be some supplements, so I decreased the daily fish oil amount. That helped some and I do feel I'm finally on the mend, but it is really frustrating. I ran across the Specific Carbohydrate Diet website and used some of those ideas. They coincide with much of my doctor's ideas. So, keep trying. Eventually you'll figure it out but it takes lots of time and detective work!!

It's possible you have other intolerances and it's also possible you are getting gluten from repeated cc that you are not aware of. Best thing to do to start out is to keep a food and symptom journal to see if you can see a pattern as food intolerance reactions can take several days to show up. Then you can start eliminating suspicous foods. Another way to go about it would be to do a strict elimination diet where you cut out all 8 major allergerns, everything you suspect and eat only a handful of whole foods you are sure you are okay with. Choose one protein, one starch, one easy to digest vegetable and only eat those for two weeks. Then pick one of you suspected problem foods (like milk) to challenge with--add it back into your diet for a few days until you either have a reaction to it or are sur eit is not a problem food. Keep adding one new food per week.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      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...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      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...

      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.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      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...

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.

      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.
