Discussion Gluten Nightmares

Does anyone else experience nightmares about being glutened? Most of mine involve me accidentally putting soy sauce on rice instead of tamari or being in a really fun situation with friends and forgetting to read a label and accidentally glutening myself. They often feel like those nightmares where you’re kind of awake or slightly conscious and it’s like anxiety poking through. Anyway about a year into my diagnosis and the fun doesn’t stop! 🥴😂

I had a nightmare that I was poisoned and I went to the ER, and the doctors solemly told me it was too late to pump my stomach because it had already reached my intestines. I told the doctor that I could clear my intestines quick. (I'm sure this has no real medical basis, but it was sleep logic). Checked myself out, and went to my favorite grocery store which also happens to have a Del Taco and a Jack in the Box in the parking lot. I ordered my old favorite breakfast sandwhich at Jack in the Box (the one on the croissant bun) and then grabbed a chicken soft taco from Del Taco (I used to love those so much) and for dessert I went into the grocery store and bought glazed Entemans donuts. I woke up before I got to actually eat any of it, so that was a bummer.

Haha this is an epic night. My favorite were Burger King’s breakfast sandwiches on the croissant before baseball. 😍
