Drugs And Celiac


NicoleTeresa

Recommended Posts

NicoleTeresa Newbie

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

      Symptoms that get worse if you don't supplement is a sign of malabsorption, possibly due to Celiac disease. Blood tests for nutritional deficiencies are not very accurate, and should be done when you have been off of supplements for eight to twelve weeks, otherwise the vitamin supplements you've taken will be measured.  The blood circulation system is a transportation system.  It transports the vitamins you've absorbed around the body, but blood tests don't give an accurate picture of the vitamin and mineral stores inside organs and tissues where they are actually used.  You can have "normal" blood levels but still have deficiencies.  This is because the brain demands stored nutrients be put into the blood stream to supply important organs, like the brain and heart, while other organs do without.   If you are taking Thiamine Mononitrate in your supplements, you are probably low in thiamine.  Thiamine Mononitrate is used in many supplements because it won't break down sitting on a shelf.  This also means Thiamine Mononitrate is difficult for the body to utilize.  Only thirty percent of Thiamine Mononitrate on the label is absorbed and even less is able to be utilized by the body.  A different form of Thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Talk to your doctor about doing a genetic test to look for Celiac markers.   I'm concerned that if you do a gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum off two weeks) in your weakened state, the nutritional deficiencies will become worse and possibly life threatening.

      Hello, good afternoon!   I apologize, I didn’t see a notification and I’m just reading this. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and the link. Yes you are absolutely right, even so trying to get a response from them has been extremely difficult. They don’t answer but I will your practice of “guilty until proven innocent.”   I like and have a sense of trust here in this website, everyone is honest and thoughts are raw. The mutual understanding is amazing!   thank you Scott!

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.
