Sleep And Symptoms

I developed some horrible sleep habits when I was sick and the doctors didn't know why. I've been gluten-free for close to six months now and on nights I have trouble falling asleep, I get restless and agitated, which leads to bad memories of being sick.

I've done some meditating to help me cope. Does anyone else have some advice to getting over these painfull memories that effect my ability to relax.

<_< i'm thinking that your real problem is not being able to fall asleep and when you get agitated you just start thinking about those pass days--i know there is no answer to those restless nights--i myself call them "watching the clock nights"--i had one last night myself---maybe if you would try some tylenol PM on those nights--yes, i know it is gluten free becasue i take it myself--today i told my daughter that i am wondering if my restless nights are connected to eating tuna--i only buy tuna in water and recently i found out there is soy in the broth they use on the tuna--i do know that too much soy bothers me and now i am wondering if the soy in the tuna is what makes me restless--we all react differently to different intolerances--so i am going to watch those nights i have tuna and find out--may be the end of my tuna eating days :( ---anyways, give tylenol PM a try ;) otay--deb

      That's interesting - that's a lot of gluten! I'll be very curious to see how my son responds to the gluten. In some ways, I guess having a strong reaction would tell us something? It's tough navigating this as a parent and having it be not so clear cut ;\

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JamieAnn!  Glad you had a good experience at your local Jersey Mike's.  In the town I live in all we have is Subway and they stopped offering gluten free buns. So, I can't eat there anymore. Oh, more recently there has come to our town a Firehouse sub shop and, according to the Internet, they offer gluten free buns but I haven't tried them yet. For super sensitive celiacs, cross-contamination in handling at these sub shops may also be a problem.

      Today, in Uniontown, PA,  I ordered Jersey Mike’s Italian sub on gluten-free bread (paid extra for gluten-free) for my brother who hasn’t had a sub in yrs (neorological prob if consumes). He’s so happy! Their gluten-free bread is from a company that specializes in gluten-free products, some of which I’ve enjoyed before, so figured a sub would be good!

      Most recent gluten challenge guidelines call for the consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least 2 weeks.  When celiacs have been on gluten free diets for long periods of time, they often find that when they consume a good amount of gluten, they react much more strongly than they did before going gluten free. They have lost all tolerance to the poison they had when consuming wheat products regularly. That is certainly the case with me. A couple of years ago I accidentally consumed a wheat biscuit my wife had made thinking it was a gluten free one and it made me violently ill. So, I mention that as I don't know if your son has started the gluten challenge yet.
