i don't know if I'm posting this in the right place but I'm hoping that someone here could give me some ideas on what in the world i can eat? i have been up all night puking and butt puking and now i have no idea what to eat, so i have been sipping at water all morning and afternoon trying to figure this out

i look at banana's and think no i get heart burn

strawberries no i get hives

no lactose

no gluten

diffentally no soy bad reaction

no dill bad reaction

eggs up set stomach

nothing acidic

this relay limits what i can consume

i have been looking through the cupboards and fridge and freezer and just staring blankly at the foods and get discouraged because i have been throwing out lots of foods that i make and either getting sick from it or it tasting so awful that the dog wont even eat it lol

so i guess my question to you who is reading this is: what would you eat if you had these restrictions?

Can you eat meat and rice???

When I was at my sickest I would brown ground lamb then take plain cooked white rice and (kinda) stir-fry them together. It was ,and still is, my safest meal.

It seemed like forever (in actuality it was only about 3 weeks) before I could eat anything more.

Sorry that you are feeling so ill...not fun! If I was nauseous, I'd be inclined to have some chicken and rice soup (or just broth with rice in it). Would that work for you? I'd probably also sip a coke or ginger ale as I find that to be soothing for me but don't know if that would work for you.

I was having the same problems with foods when I was diagnosed. It has taken a while to add foods back to my diet. It helped to follow the online SCD diet.

Bananas give me stomach aches but now I eat a lot of them. They have to be very ripe, no green, lots of brown spots. I can peel them, dip them in Vit C or lemon water and freeze them in small bags for snacks. They are OK cooked with gluten-free millit, rice or buckwheat cereal. I can mash them with cooked winter squash, raisins, cooked pork, pears, coconut. Unless they have been frozen I have to mix them with something.

Fruits I can eat are apples and pears. Prunes, dried cranberries and raisins I soak in Vit C water to deactivate mold toxins. Can't tolerate grapes or fresh prunes/plums. Grapefruit, tangerines OK but oranges less OK.

When I'm feeling sick I try to eat plain, bland stuff--rice and baked chicken, chicken and rice soup (homemade), rice cakes with peanut butter or gluten-free toast with PB--peanut butter almost always stays down when I feel like throwing up. A baked potato or mashed potatoes with a little salt to replenish the salts you are losing by throwing up and D. Gatorade is helpful for dehydration as well just don't drink too much because of the sugar. I drink ginger ale too--it's just about the only soda I will drink and only when I'm super sick because the ginger and carbonation settles my stomach.

I would just like to add that you might consider taking L-Glutamine to help your gut heal. Many of us have been helped by doing so.

possibly,, have you considered the possibility of leaky gut or additional intolerances or allergys???

Doing a strict elimination diet may a good thing at this point.

when I did my elimination diet I picked foods that I rarely ate at first.I was so ill that I ate plain white rice and ground lamb for about 3 weeks and then started adding foods back SLOWLY VERY VERY SLOWLY . The first week I did add sweet potatoes ( not a nightshade ) peas and peaches. After 2 weeks with no reaction I started adding ONE Food a week.It is tough VERY VERY tough, but feeling well is so very worth it.

When I did my elimination diet there were many food I could not tolerate that I have since been able to add back into my diet. With time my gut has healed a bit and I have been able to add back dairy ( that makes me a VERY happy girl) and am testing out other foods. Many food I can tolerate small amounts on occasionally. So other than gluten and soy which are PERMANENTLY out of my diet. I am playing with SLOWLY add other foods back.

Hang in there. I do know how tough it is ,, but you can do this :)

Soup! Make a simple broth by boiling/simmering bones or a chicken. Strain it then add back veggies you can eat and meat. Boil it until everything is soft and eat it. You might look into GAPS. It does include some foods you can't eat but you introduce each food slowly, and don't introduce foods that are known problems. There's lots of info on it out there. I have just finished summarizing the first six stages on the blog linked from my profile.

Chicken soup is a life saver. There is something in the chicken broth from a boiled chicken that really helps. Boil you up a chicken for about an hour, save that broth and us it for your soup. You can put in what you can eat. Sometimes when the body just gets the icks, I find this as my solution. I hope you get to feeling better.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Hi, @Ginger38, I've had shingles in the past. I understand how miserable you're feeling. Not only do i have the chickenpox virus lurking about, I also have the cold sore virus that occasionally flares with a huge cold sore on my lip when stressed or exposed to gluten. The virus lives dormant in the nerves on the left side of my face. It causes...

While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @Ginger38, I've had shingles in the past.  I understand how miserable you're feeling.   Not only do i have the chickenpox virus lurking about, I also have the cold sore virus that occasionally flares with a huge cold sore on my lip when stressed or exposed to gluten.  The virus lives dormant in the nerves on the left side of my face.  It causes Bell's Palsy (resulting in drooling).  The cold sore virus is also in my eye.  My eye swells up and my vision is diminished permanently whenever I have a flare, so it's of the utmost importance to keep flares away and treat them immediately if they do happen so I don't lose any more vision.   I take the amino acid supplement L-Lysine.  Lysine messes with the replication of viruses, which helps the body fight them off.   I haven't had an outbreak for several years until this year when exceptionally stressed and contaminated, it flared up again. Lysine has been shown to be beneficial in suppression of viruses like the cold sore virus (a herpetic virus), the chickenpox virus (also a herpetic virus), as well as the HIV virus, and even the Covid virus.   I also take additional Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) because Thiamine has antiviral properties as well.   For pain, a combination of Thiamine (like TTFD or Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride), with B12 Cobalamine, and Pyridoxine B6 have been shown to have analgesic properties which relieve pain and neuropathy.    The combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B12 really does work to relieve pain.  I take it for back pain from crushed vertebrae in my back.  This combination also works on other pain and neuropathy.   I usually buy a supplement that combines all three and also Riboflavin B2 called EXPLUS online.  However, it's made in Japan and the price with the tariffs added makes it really expensive now.  But the combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and B12 Cobalamine (and Riboflavin B2) still work even if taken separately.   I can't take Tylenol or ibuprofen because of stomach upsets.  But I can take the vitamin combination without side effects.  However, you can take the three vitamins at the same time as other pain relievers for added benefit.  The vitamins help other pain relievers work better. I hope you will try it.  Hopeful you'll feel better quickly. Interesting Reading: Thiamine, cobalamin, locally injected alone or combination for herpetic itching: a single-center randomized controlled trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23887347/ Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ Analgesic and analgesia-potentiating action of B vitamins https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12799982/ A Narrative Review of Alternative Symptomatic Treatments for Herpes Simplex Virus https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10301284/

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.
