Gluten Challenge/ Beer!


HopefulMama23

So this past week, after a year and three months of being gluten free, I did a gluten challenge to reassess my health and see if anything had changed. It was SO amazing- the bread, bagels, cereals, pasta, oh lord. But by the end of the week I had some mild diarrhea, bloatIng, and brain fog.

But last night we had friends over for drinks- and I had beer. Too many, to be sure, but not so many that I deserve what I am feeling now, which is quite possibly the worst hangover I have ever experienced. I am nauseous, dizzy, sick, tired, and depressed. I have had more than a couple glasses of wine in the past year and while I would wake up tired- it was nothing like this. I feel like I am dying! Could it be the gluten in the beer? If so, this is definitely the conclusive proof I was seeking that my gluten intolerance is still 100% there.

You were already reacting to the gluteny foods and then you continued and topped things off with the beer. Sure does sound like your pretty well glutened. It may take a week or two before you are feeling better and I hope you heal quickly.

Gluten builds up in the system and the beer put you over the edge.

Sorry, but at least, now you know for sure! No gluten for you.

I hope you recover quickly.

My suggestion? drink lots of water!!

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail,  I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however,  the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I have an appointment with the consultant early April probably followed by another endoscopy, as far as I’m aware I have not been tested for vitamin B and will definitely discuss it with the doctor on my next visit.

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another.   If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on.  They're just not ready to learn that lesson.  But you confidently keep going on your journey.  They can catch up later.

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start feeling better soon.

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.
