I have a friend who is so sensitive that if her husband eats gluten and then they kiss the next DAY she reacts, apparently small particles of everything you eat gets inside your salivary glands, so even though he'd brushed a few times by then, she got glutened. Yikes~!

Oh jeez.

This hasn't happened to us before.

I guess I'll just refrain from sucking on his tonsils immediately after a beer (even after brushing).

Bleh, I know how you feel. I am laying in this hotel bed wide awake because my stomach is killing me. Believe that I am lactose intolerant right now. Had milk this morning, cheddar cheese on a burger patty, and baked potato with cheese. Stomach hurt didn't feel good, but not anything close to the pain I have recently been getting immediately during eating gluten products (before I even finish eating). Then again, I also had a biscuit and french toast touching my breakfast (eggs and bacon) when I got it this morning, then my wife's fries touching my burger patty from Wendy's when they put it on the tray. Not sure if it's that big of a deal or not (just touching the food, guess it is), but didn't feel so bad most of the day. Not nearly as bad as the last week when I have been eating with no regard and having no idea what was going on... that was hell. My first day ever attempting gluten free, maybe tomorrow will be better. I know I am supposed to keep eating gluten so I can test for it, but it is killing me! I just want the pain to stop. :unsure:

I'm sorry. Yes, you need to keep eating it for testing. Rant and rave to get bloodwork fast so you can get off the ride.

In the interim try digestive enzymes and probiotics. It may help a bit....and stop eating dairy (because that won't affect testing).

And being sick on the road doubly sucks.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.
