Gluten...the Devil In Disguise...plus A Weird Symptom...

Ok so, I went off of gluten for about 3 days, due to the doctor telling me my blood work showed I was Celiac, yet my biopsies came back negative. Within 24 hours I felt absolutely amazing, it was working. I went back to the doctor today, and they tell me Ive never had blood work for Celiac, and my biopsies are negative, but In order for insurance to cover me to go to a Dietician, I probably need a diagnosis and to go back on gluten until the weekend, get my blood done, then resume the gluten free diet. I either have Celiac or a Gluten Sensitivity. Either way, all I know is, Its been way less then 12 hours since going BACK on gluten and I feel miserable. Stomach pain, the big D, Nausea, chills, sweats. I hate this! Also I have a weird symptom ive never heard anyone mention yet. Whenever I eat gluten containing foods, I start sneezing within 1-2 minutes of putting it in my mouth. Is that all in my head? Or does anyone else have that symptom? As soon as I stopped eating gluten the sneezing stopped. All I know is I don't know if I can make it until the weekend. Granted its Wednesday here already but come on! I hate when doctors tell you one thing, and they say oops sorry we made a mistake. Could someone please shed some light on this? I requested no matter what the results are, whether insurance covers it or not, Im going back off gluten as soon as I get my blood drawn, and they are sending me to a Dietician no matter what. Feeling very very sick right now! Please help!

Call your doctor and tell them about your reaction to adding gluten back in. If you were only gluten free for 3 days they may be able to go ahead and draw the blood now. There can be false negatives with blood tests and biopsy so do keep that in mind. Glad you got such quick results on your short trial of the diet and do keep it up after your done with testing.

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By KimMS · Posted

      Thanks for sharing that site! Do you know if that site has any information about manufacturing/possible cross contact on it? I can't find it. When I have called manufacturers, most of them say they can't guarantee no cross contact in manufacturing (except Lannett, Mylan and possible Amneal, which aren't available near me).

      Possible cross-contamination – concerned about symptoms

      By Dora77 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I have celiac disease and I’m asymptomatic, which makes things more stressful because I don’t know when I’ve been glutened. That’s why I try to be really careful with cross-contamination. For almost a year, I’ve been having yellow/orange floating stools consistently. I’m not sure if it’s related to gluten exposure or something else going on. I’ve been trying to identify any possible mistakes in my routine. Today, I made myself some gluten-free bread with cheese. Normally, I’m very careful: I use one hand to handle the cheese packaging (which could be contaminated, since it’s from the supermarket and was probably sitting on a checkout belt that had flour residue)...

      Lubriderm-gluten-free?

      By Mswena · Posted

      So eight days in a row of gluten on top of gluten on top of gluten, I just had to resort to the EpiPen. I wish I could post a picture because you wouldn’t believe how enormous my gut is! It makes my head look like a pinhead.Ahhhgggsahhhhh!!!! I have discovered that I have to read the ingredients when I use a product up that I’ve been able to use without getting a reaction, because they can change the ingredients and bam my toothpaste now has gluten!!! my doctor told me gluten free means it has 20 ppm which someone with a severe a celiac as I’ve got that thing there kills me. I try to find certified gluten-free in everything. I can’t eat any oats unless it’s Bob’s red mill...

      Lubriderm-gluten-free?

      By Mswena · Posted

      I have been using a little bit of Lubriderm when I wash my hands because it’s the lotion offered at a place I frequent once a week. Assuming it was gluten-free I bought a bottle. I couldn’t figure out why I was getting gluten EVERY night. I use a little of the lotion in the morning on my neck, with no reaction, but at night, I use it on my arms and legs and face and get gluten gut pretty bad. After eight nights of having to have diphenhydramine injections for severe gluten, I googled “is Lubriderm gluten-free” and it led me to this forum. I am going to go back to olive oil as I have been gut sick sooooooo bad with a huge gut and pain eight days in a row now. Sick of feeling sick.
