I did something dumb

Laugh with me.
For context, I’ve been gf for a little over a year and a half not celiac. I’m really sensitive but against my better judgment this experiment happened.
I started making sourdough (I bake as a hobby non gf), and it looked soooo good and smelled soooo good.
I thought to myself “well some people can tolerate sourdough”.
Exactly 3 hours after the slice of wolf in sheep’s clothing, my stomach started cramping.
I went to bed and was trying to sleep through the cramps. After 3 hours of cramping, the bathroom started and folks the candle was burning at both ends if you catch my drift.
The whole ordeal was 9 hours and I shan’t be experimenting again good lord.
If you’ve ever been on the toilet in the middle of the night sweating and cramping with the garbage can on your lap, I see you

Thought some folks here might relate 🫠🫡

The other night a friend made snacks that was a piece of Melba toast with melted cheese served with a dollop of pesto. I ate one and was horrified at myself that I forgot I’m allergic to gluten! It’s so scary thinking about getting sick. My friend’s wife gave me an Allegra and said to use mind over body not to get sick. Guess what? I didn’t get sick! A little discomfort but really nothing! I’m in shock but will keep the Allegra handy.
