Funny Story...just For Your Entertainment

Ok. Our house is entirely gluten free now, because I'm so sensitive. So my hubby went to Whole Foods last night for me to grocery shop, and I didn't realize that he bought the Applegate Chicken Nuggets for the kids that contain gluten. What was he thinking right? So, I pulled them out and made them for the kids for lunch today... before I realized that they were glutenous nuggets. It slipped by me, because I'm used to everything being gluten free now. Okay, so the kids were already eating them. Ugh, and I handled the nuggets...not knowing if I touched my face or anything else. My plan was to wash them up well, and hope for the best. I had my 5 yr old use a fork, and wash his hands and face immediately. Then I switched plates to give them more gluten-free food. I washed up my other son who just turned 2. I was really hoping that I dodged a bullet, but knowing that only time will tell. I pick up the baby and started to go upstairs to put him down for a nap. As I'm distracted with my other son, the baby decides to spit ALL OVER my unsuspecting face! You know... babies like to blow raspberries, and usually can't do it well...so they just end up blowing spit everywhere...yeah all over my face. After my brief moment of shock and regret, I looked at him...and he had this huge mischievious grin! He did it on purpose, and thought it was funny! Right in the middle of my reprimand...he did it again...all over my face! Oh my gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I'm just waiting for the storm...praying that it will spare me this time:( Of course, my baby would have to pick the ONE TIME that he accidentally had gluten to spit in my face. He also never tries to spit like that. What impeccable timing! Hope that made you laugh:) I was sure to let my husband know that he might be taking care of everyone tonight!

I hope you don't get sick.

If hubby ends up taking care of all the kids I bet he doesn't make THAT mistake again. :lol:

I hope you dodge this bullet! Babies + Gluten = Trouble! lol! My nephew has tried to shove waffles in my mouth while I was distracted with another task, threw a cookie in the middle of a gluten-free salad I bought specifically so I'd have safe food at a family dinner, and backwashed gluteny crumbs into my unsuspecting drinks. Ewww!

Ewwww! Yes, I would have had a heart attack! I did not end up being the "train wreck" that I thought I'd be last night! Whew...I did dodge a bullet! God had mercy on me, and believe me I said a prayer:)

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
