Got Glutened

I just grabbed a bottle of Viacraves and popped two in my mouth.

Then looked to see the adult dose...yes two so I'm all good.

I popped two more because they tasted good and I figured the extra vitamins won't hurt me.

Quick scanned the ingredients to be sure I wasn't overdosing Zinc or iron but did this as I was Swallowing the second two.

Got to the bottom of the bottle and DARNED If It Don't Say Contains WHEAT clear as Day at the bottom.

WTF? How many mistakes can a person make in one minute?

I thought all gluten containing bottles were purged a long time ago.

I was wrong.

Actually don't feel sick yet, but I know it is coming and I'm dreading it.

What an idiot I am.

I haven't gotten glutened in months.

This isn't really a question....just a Whine.

Ugh. :(

I almost popped a couple of pretzels in my mouth last week without even thinking. They were just sitting there and looked good.

Someone once told me, also, that too many vitamins can actually have some negative effects (but I don't know if it's true / any other info about it.)

I feel for ya :( Two falls ago I got a craving for red licorice. Didn't even check the ingredients. Major migraine for days.

Hope you cheat the symptoms this time and get a pass.

I did this with Twizzlers :o , bought them did not even think that they would contain wheat,took a big bite started to chew them and IT hit me. Spit it out and read the label, :ph34r:

As I remember wheat was the first or second ingredient.

I didn't get a migraine yet. I am very tired and had to nap, and feel sad and anxious. But I know that is just the reaction. If I get away without a migraine or D...I promise I will read before putting anything in my mouth ever again!

DH sores flaring and eyes swollen....god I hope it doesn't last long.

This just sucks...I was feeling really really good too.

Chicken and carrot soup for me.

If only I didn't have DH. When I activate the sores it takes for freaking ever to get healed again.

Anyway, thanks for your comments and support. It's nice to know I'm not the only Silly yak who makes silly mistakes.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
