I Slipped, And Now I Ache!

Hi, I'm pretty new to the gluten-free world. I quit eating bread and pasta (& etc.) early April, and yesterday I caved: I ate several slices of yummy bread.

Well, today I'm having severe bone and joint pain (back, arms, legs). Could it be a reaction? I am still as constipated as ever, but a bit more bloated and gassy.

I cheated because I felt like my life without gluten was not much different than on it: I'm still extremely tired most of the time, I can barely function.

How long does it take for the gluten to be completely out of one's system?

Each person is different. It sounds like your reaction is not good. have you had a blood test to see if you are celiac or gluten sensitive?

I'm still waiting for my results. I don't even know if the test that was requested is very reliable...

Yes, it is possible that your joint pain and aches are related to the gluten consumption. You will often have more extreme symptoms after being gluten free for a while. If you went gluten free only this month you have not given it a long enough trial to tell whether or not you will feel better off gluten, but I think you have maybe found that you will feel worse with it ;)

Your tiredness might be because you have either iron anemia or pernicious anemia (low B12), or you might even have a thyroid condition in addition to possible celiac. It sounds as though you need some testing to get some answers. I also get achy bones and joints when I'm accidentally "glutened." So, celiac is definitely a possibility for you.

I was diagnosed Coeliac 1 year ago. It. can take a long time for some symptoms to disappear. My fatigue and abdominal pain are still hanging around. Get your blood tested for iron, zinc, vit d, calcium, b12 and more. Your symptoms certainly sound like gluten poisoning.

Good luck, kim

Sounds like you are having a gluten reaction for sure! I agree with the previous posts regarding fatigue. There is a good chance of vitamin deficiencies. I would stay very strict with the gluten free diet from now on! You should see improvements soon! :)

BTW, Love the cat picture!

      Body dysmorphia experience

      Body dysmorphia experience. When I was at the worst of my gluten problem I use to get chronic constipation; I would spend long time sitting on the toilet. One day as I was tired of sitting, I rested my head on my hands and my elbows on my knees, as soon as I felt the pressure of my elbows on my knees the perception of my body changed to that of a tarantula...

      Gluten related ??

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Gluten related ??

      Thank you so much for your response Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on. I'm not eating gluten as far as I know. However, I'm not sure of cross contamination. My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ??? if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease...

      Body dysmorphia experience. When I was at the worst of my gluten problem I use to get chronic constipation; I would spend long time sitting on the toilet. One day as I was tired of sitting, I rested my head on my hands and my elbows on my knees, as soon as I felt the pressure of my elbows on my knees the perception of my body changed to that of a tarantula; I visualized and it felt real. The perception went away as soon as I removed the pressure on my knees, I deducted that the pressure of my elbows on the knees caused the sensation, so I repeated the position and the sensation of having the body of a tarantula happened each time. I have not had that experience since then because I started a gluten-free diet short after. I wonder if those people that look distorted to themselves in the mirror could have something similar but with the responsible sensory contacts located on their feet. I want to document this experience because it might help some research or others, it sounds crazy but I feel the right thing to do is to share it.
