Dairy And Body Aches


nmthommy

Recommended Posts

Yesterday at the baseball game my son was having nachos with the fake cheese and salsa. I couldn't resist. My husband told me not too but I, stupidly said "It's not real cheese so a little should be ok".

Now today I have body aches and swollen lymph nodes. Is this a symptom of being caseined or maybe the actual flu?

The last time I got glutened I felt similar to this but now as bad.

Any thoughts?

idk.... but im assuming that that fake nacho cheese stuff probably has 30 ingredients that our body would want to reject. werent u afraid to order it without seeing the ingredients? i wouldnt be surprised if there's wheat, corn, and soy byproducts in it.

Just wanted to taste it. Not my brightest move.

I react the exact same way to casein as I do to gluten and body aches are my first symptom.

I have the same problem, I am intollerent to both lactose and gluten. Most likely the corn chips were contaminated with wheat dust, most are, only a few are gluten free.

This is my first post, I have been both lactose and gluten intollerent for five years ever since my major abdominal surgery, it has been quit a journey and education. I just joined to expand my knowledge and maybe to help someone else.

When I was in Disney World a couple of weeks ago I started drinking my coffee with a little cream. At home I use hemp milk, and I guess I was just too addicted to forego my coffee. Anyhow, after a couple of days of this I became very very nauseated. I had always associated the nausea with gluten and wheat, but since I gave dairy and wheat up at the same time I guess the nausea may have been from dairy. Well, after we got home I obviously dropped the dairy right away, but it took about 3 or 4 days before the flu like symptoms and fatigue went away. I keep trying to get dairy back but I just don't think it's going to happen. I hope you feel better soon.

eta: also had swollen lymph nodes

thank you for your thoughts.

I am seeing my specialist this afternoon and see what she thinks.

I hate when I have to admit my mistakes to her. I should know better.

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
