<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Can anyone tell me if they experience a racing heart, dizziness, or brief loss of consciousness after accidentally ingesting gluten? As a child, before being diagnosed, I had frequent fainting spells. I am now 25 and until recently, they were far less common for me, but they seem to have started again. Earlier this week I almost passed out and had to stay in bed all evening because I could not even sit up without getting dizzy again, and I cannot figure out why. I don't think I ate anything I should not have, but I can't think of any other reason this would start happening again. I would really appreciate any input -- ideas of what causes this (is this a Celiac thing, or something else?), what I can do to prevent it, or what to do as it is happening to feel better quickly. Thank you!! --Louise *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the CELIAC List*
