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.

Yep. It was Twizzlers.

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.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
