Drugs And Celiac

Hello,

My name is Nicole and I have Celiac disease. I was wondering if any one else on here does any recreational hallucinogenic drugs (Psilocybin or MDMA). I just recently found out that I have this problem, and have just in the past few weeks started on a gluten free diet. My experience with drugs that require ingestion is that they have an extremely late onset time and that I require a higher dosage. I am 5'4'' and 105 pounds and should only require a relatively small amount of a drug in order for it to take affect. In addition to this, MDMA makes me extremely dehydrated especially because I have trouble retaining and absorbing water. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know any remedies?

Thanks!

I don't know about the illegal drugs, but for the legal ones, they now work quicker and I need less.

If you're going to continue to use ingested drugs, I think you should be extremely careful that you don't accidentally OD because you suddenly start absorbing things better. A better plan would be to stop using everything for six months (OK, forever, but I'll let you make that decision) and if/when you decide to try something, start at a very low dose, and see how it goes.

We're asking us how to take drugs? Really? This site seems to be about getting well. Do yourself a favor and quit taking drugs.

You may start absorbing drugs better once you have healed so do be careful as was stated by the other poster that you don't OD.

Something you really need to keep in mind is that celiac can have neurological effects and make you more prone to anxiety, depression and schizophrenia. When you combine that with psychotropic drugs you are really playing with fire. If you must do something smoke pot. It's safer.

Another thing to consider is that taking the drugs may be an attempt to self-medicate the neurological/emotional effects of your celiac. Just a thought.

not to mention that making decisions about munchies when you're high on hallucinogens isn't very likely! :o

      Thank you 😊 I will certainly have those tests done to be thorough although bright red color indicates lower down.  This information is very interesting,  Thank you so much 🙏🏻

      As Plumbago mentioned, bleeding in the upper end of the GI track tends not to show up as bright red in color because it gets acted upon by the digestion process and more thoroughly mixed in with food residues that are passing through the intestines.

      @Bronwyn W Working with your medical provider, you could do a complete blood count test. If you were bleeding say from an ulcer in the stomach (and let's hope not), your red blood cells could be low and your hemoglobin low as well. Your stools may show up as the proverbial "dark and tarry," indicative of a bleeding site further away from the anus. Basically, you may be anemic. Your heart may be beating extra fast as a way to compensate for the decreased number of blood cells, your oxygen saturation may be lower than normal on a pulse oximeter, and so on. But talk to your doctor.

      Thank you for this insight. I have had rectal bleeding after glutening and subsequent constipation (+ IBS-C) and always attributed it to internal hemorrhoids (diagnosed). What I wasn't aware of is the possibility of bleeding further up the digestive tract. Please can you elaborate on the causes and symptoms to watch for?

      Be sure to be eating gluten daily until all of your celiac disease tests are completed (at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread per day for at least 6-8 weeks before any blood tests, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy).
