I’ve been wondering if I could be allergic.I’ve been eating ALOT of special k bars lately. I’ve been extremely bloated for about 3 days now, it’s so uncomfortable, I’m swollen in my hands. Can’t breath right.
I do this a lot sometimes, but I’m just now making a connection.
Is there anything else that could be causing this?
It sounds like you have angioedema from wheat or brewers yeast or gluten or whatever else is in special K and similar food. Angioedema can cause swelling of the hands and stomach, etc. You may have a mild case and the reactions could get more severe over time. I would always carry benadryl and an epipen in my purse. It wouldn’t hurt to get tested for Celiac Disease if you find out its gluten you are reacting to.
To be on the safe side, consult your doctor and get tested for allergy.

Sound like a gluten intolerance problem.The special k bars i know have wheat in them because i have celiac disease and can’t have them.
Try to stay away from bread products. If you must have bread read the ingredients on package before buying. You may have to bake you own bread. This should cut down on your wheat issue.
Dont eat them .
