So, on Friday night, we went to dinner and I was very careful about the handling of the food. I won't name the restaurant, because it is not their fault....it's my own stupid fault. I woke up Saturday morning and my stomach felt all bubbly and yucky.......so started the wonderful day I had....D started around 11am....but this time the mental issues were 10 times worse than the stomach issues.....I literally sounded like I was under the influence. I would start a sentence and have to speak very slowly to remember the words I was intending to say. I have never had this before. My husband and I were going out on Saturday night to see a show, and he asked me to look at a GPS map on his phone, and I could not figure out which direction we were headed on the map. It was scary. I slept until 11am on Sunday morning, and I still felt worn out. This reaction took everything out of me. Has anyone experienced a reaction like this before? I am really sensitive-I get hives in the grocery store-we believe this is from the bakery in the store. UGH.......

That is so frustrating! I hope you feel better soon. People have reported reactions similar to yours.

I've had very similar things happen. I had a friend ask me if I had been drinking because I was slurring my words. I tried playing a board game with my husband and couldn't do multiples of 5! My memory gets really bad as well. I do not get hives from the store but I've had weird rashes appear prior to going gluten free. Mostly were on my stomach and looked like a heat rash. The one constant is that I bloat REALLY bad and it hurts! The next day I'm yucky and feel sore, like somebody punched me in the stomach. I get so tired also, feel like I could sleep all day and still need more...sucks!

      KATZ CINNAMON DONUTS

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry to hear you're feeling so unwell, and I hope you recover quickly. While your personal experience of getting sick is absolutely valid, there are a few key inaccuracies in the information you've shared that are important to clarify for anyone else reading. The central misunderstanding is about oats and gliadin. Oats do not contain gliadin; gliadin is a specific protein found exclusively in wheat. The protein in oats is called avenin, which is similar in structure but is a completely different compound. For the vast majority of people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, pure, uncontaminated oats are safe. The reason "gluten-free" oats are necessary is because regular oats are frequently cross-contaminated with wheat, barley, or rye during growing and processing. Certified gluten-free oats are tested to ensure they are free from this cross-contamination. It's possible you may have a separate and less common sensitivity to avenin in oats themselves, or the illness could have been caused by another ingredient or even an unrelated virus. Given your expertise and severe reaction, it would be a good idea to discuss this with a doctor to pinpoint the exact cause. This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Could my infant son have been glutened? Hear me out.

      Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition with a genetic base. The the potential for developing the disease is inherited. but remains latent until triggered by some stress event. Thus, there is an epigenetic component to celiac disease. Once the genes are awakened from dormancy, celiac reactions are triggered by the ingestion of gluten.

      KATZ CINNAMON DONUTS

      By bombier · Posted

      I just called in sick to work and I'm laying here in a fetal position with liquid diarrhea so bad I'm using a trash can and can't make it to the bathroom. Last night I thought I would treat myself as most of you realize we have to cook from scratch so much but I thought I would treat myself and I made a huge mistake by buying these katz cinnamon donuts. I had a pre-covid gluten-free restaurant and used to hold gluten-free meetings in McDonald's until they closed the dining rooms down. I am very familiar with this topic. I'm too sick to fish the box out of the garbage can and read the ingredients again but I can guarantee you before I bought it I made sure they didn't have so-called gluten-free oats because there is no such thing. Oats have gliadin and gliadin is a derivative of gluten I learned this long ago in my gluten-free journey. I am in so much pain and so sick I can't believe it. Right now I'm feeling like this company has no business making food for the public.

      Newbie possible glutening help

      By Beeroney · Posted

      Hi all, just ticked over into my first year gluten-free after being diagnosed last October and feeling a bit rough after a possible glutening. Diagnosed at the ripe age of 38, never been ill in my life before this so safe to say my health anxiety is now borderline unmanageable. I think I may have been glutened a week ago, since then I’ve had that familiar hot/burning feeling in my gut, gas, bloating and all the Bristol Stool chart types in one sitting. I know people are different but does this sound familiar to anyone? Stomach was churning like mad last weekend like it did when I first ill before diagnosis. Acid reflux(which was my first symptom way back when) also reared its ugly head, which I probably the worst symptoms imo. Anxiety is probably up more so as I’m leaving on holiday to USA in 3 weeks time, which would be pretty much ruined if my guts are still messed by the time we leave.  Any words of wisdom appreciated    Bryan
