After Being Glutened Do You Ever Pass This?

I have been having a heck of a time lately. I was glutened last Thurs. I had all of the symptoms that I always get. I have been getting a new symptom though. You know how with celiac, you have mucus or oily drops floating. (TMI) I know. Do you ever just have the oily/mucus discharge after a bout of D from being glutened? It's freaking me out a little b/c it's always been in the stool but now sometimes I feel like I have to go and thats all that comes out the oily stuff.

Thanks so much!

Yes, I use to have that before going gluten free. It was really bad after having a pasta dinner...go figure!

Yes...I've had lot's of times I was only able to pass mucous and oil water...before I found out what was wrong.

I have a question though. Did this happen just from trace gluten? That happened to me as I was eating gluten every day. I'm just curious if you don't mind sharing. How did you get glutened this time?

It will stop when the gluten is out of your system.

Well..I unknowingly ate a product that was cross contaminated every sat. For about 2 months. I had recently stupidly went waaaay overboard on dairy products and blames it on that. My dairy and glutened symptoms are very similar. I removed the dairy and still had d etc. Ate the product again and bam..figured it out. It went in the trash. I am super sensitive and react badly.

Thanks for your help. I am going to try not eating anything processed. I keep getting glutened over and over from stuff marked marked gluten free. This disease sure is tricky sometimes.

Sorry but what do you mean oily drops floating? Sorry this is all new to me. Discharge? Does it just come out?

With celiac, one of the hallmark symptoms is oily stools or oily diarrhea. I looks like oil drops floating in the toilet. It comes out after going to the bathroom or sometimes it will feel like you have to go and just pass gas with the mucus/oily stuff.

I've been gluten free for almost 2 years and I am still learning. It's hard to deal with sometimes especially with cross contamination and delayed reactions.

Welcome to the forum.

Sounds like my pattern. I do ok for a while and then start missing all the foods I have to do without. I feel the best when I avoid all processed gluten free foods. I am having to rededicate myself today. I had been avoiding corn but couldn't pass up some kettle corn marked gluten free. I kinda went crazy after what I thought would just be a few bites. Boy, did I pay for it. The cravings can be incredible and hard to resist. I had also been experimenting with candy bars and some yogurt. Not really sure which set me off. Maybe someday I'll learn to say goodby to those things forever.

As unsettling as it is, yes it happens. It happened to me all the time before I went gluten free and now it happens when I accidentally get glutened. I think it usually comes towar then end when I'm just about done with the stomach problems. I feelfor you! You are fine though, dont let it freak you out. Just let it resolve you to e more vigilant about cross contamination.

I have this however its not as bad as it was when I was consuming Gluten dairy super bad also All my slimy mucus out the but is almost stopped completely. I am still noticing a oily layer at the top of the water I also have some floating stool some not mostly when I consume food with a high fat content like hamburger cream cheese use to do this to me also but I haven't eaten that in a long time. I posted about this in another thread I had started but deleted it, it fits better here.

I get mucus after getting glutened. It can confirm that the aches and pains I feel without much GI problems are actually from getting CC.

Oh wow, I never noticed the cause and effect before - this might help me a lot in figuring out what the sources of CC in my diet are! Gee, I get to start a mucus diary, awesome.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
