Stomach Problems

Recommended Posts

So, my stomach has tried to kill me tonight. I'm trying to figure out what did it. I've currently got the "D" (really liquidy, yellow, and slightly foamy? ick), stomach cramps, major gas (huh?!? thats a first), cotton throat (have had this for the past few days on and off, attributing it to allergies), and tiredness.

I have not eaten much today but:

A couple of corn tortillas with a little honey

prunes (4 of them)

and half a bowl of my leftover mac and cheese.

Today was the day i had to take a midterm. I forgot to pack away something and didnt get out of there till 2. THen i got back here and discovred the wasp issue (still unresolved atm) and forgot about it till around 4 when i ate the prunes. My stomach was feeling sort of off (kinda like when i'm still hungery) so i fixed some mac and cheese an hour later.

I can't go to the store till friday and thats pretty much whats left in my fridge. I didn't "go" yesterday (something that happens from time to time, i think its because i don't eat enough), so i thought the prunes would be fine.

I'm kinda thinking it was the culprit this time :( I feel like i did before i went gluten free.

Another possibility is that i had to use several computers today that were not my own and were icky. I had to clear my throat (yay allergies and post nasal drip) I believe i put a finger in my mouth on accident. Stupid tissue.

Anyways, thoughts?

I would try to keep a normal diet for a while to see if it really was caused by the keyboards. If not, I would pay attention not only to the prunes, but also to the mac and cheese. I dunno, you just seem to eat it a lot and for something to bother you this badly, might not be something so new...

I know :( I just need to go shopping and can't until friday so i'm making do.

I'm going to -try- to eat a normal diet and see what happens.

Sometimes stuff just happens. It could be that your body decided it didn't like not being fed properly. Maybe the mac&cheese went off? (when did you cook it? I seem to have problems with leftovers even when they were fine the first time. So weird). Wouldn't think of the icky keyboard, but who knows...

Anyway, hope you feel better. Maybe lay off the prunes for a bit.

Take care!

I'm going with the prunes on this one too. Bad things happen when I eat red peppers. Sometimes it takes a while to figure something out.

Unless you eat corn on a regular basis, i"m going with the corn. I only recently found out corn does exactly what you described to me. I cerently hope it"s not corn, you think gluten is in everything. Corn is even worse, hopefully it"s not corn or prunes. I hate to see anybody lose a food item from there safe list.

Prunes, however, its been a little while since i had them.

      It seems crazy to me that even when you call a manufacturer they can't, in this day and age, answer the simple question about what exactly is in their product!!

      Thank you so much for your response! It's been a challenging journey with this condition!

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.

      A nutritionist typically focuses on general wellness, lifestyle guidance, and preventative health. A dietician allowed to provide medical nutrition therapy. When i was diagnosed there was zero support and few dieticians and Dr understood celiac disease.  I typically guide a newly diagnosed celiac to a whole food diet to easily transition to the gluten free lifestyle

      Your gluten-free journey sounds like a lot of trial and error—especially working in a deli where gluten exposure is constant! The eye-watering issue could be an airborne gluten sensitivity (like flour dust irritating your eyes) or even a mild wheat allergy, since you’re around it daily. A daily antihistamine (like Claritin or Zyrtec) might help if it’s allergy-related, but avoiding airborne gluten as much as possible (masking, washing hands/face often) is key. It’s great you’re tracking triggers—high-fiber foods and certain gluten-free substitutes (like those tortillas or PB pretzels) can sometimes cause similar symptoms due to additives or digestive adjustments. For travel, pack safe snacks (protein...
