Time of symptoms

How long after you've been glutened do you start getting symptoms? For me it seems like I get them within 10 to 20 mins. And can last all day.

When my intestine are healed and gluten is non existent for a period of time then it takes me a week before the serious symptoms kick in.  I finally tested that by going on a stupid gluten binge a few months ago.  Ate some by accident, didn't have reaction immediately as some on this board have. When no symptoms appeared I decided I must not have Celiac disease so I ate everything gluten I had missed for 2 years.  By the 7th day the symptoms began and it was brutal.  In addition I vomited one night after eating cake which was my other sign that I did in fact have Celiac and so I gave it up and went back to gluten free.  It takes me almost a month for total healing.  If I eat gluten while my intestine are inflamed then the symptoms increase and are felt within 24 hours.  But if I go to totally healed and then get it by accident it takes a full week for the autoimmune symptoms to ramp up and start ravaging the lining of my intestines.

I get neuro symptoms within an hour or so but the severe D takes about 3 days. My stomach will get very noisy before that but the D only last a few hours. The fatigue and brain fog usually lasts a few weeks along with muscle and joint pain.

      I have had a lot of reflux since starting the gluten challenge. My GI gave me some meds to take to hopefully help a little while on the gluten challenge

      Imodium and Pepto Bismol are relatively safe when used occasionally. Pepto Bismol will bind with medications. I cannot take it because it will interact with my coumadin. Pepto also contains aspirin in it so it can make platelets more slippery and the aspirin could also cause ulcers if Pepto is used too often. I'm not saying the restaurant meal is the ongoing cause of your diarrhea episodes. I think more likely gluten is slipping into your diet on a regular basis somehow or you have developed an additional food intolerance. Have you investigated the possible causes of high eosinophil counts? One of them is autoimmune disorders and of course, celiac disease fits into that category.

      Thank you for the feedback!  I realize the restaurant meal was probably contaminated but I had no idea a reaction to gluten could last so long!  I’m hoping I find a doctor who will take me seriously.   Is Imodium or Pepto Bismol safe to take to manage symptoms?

      Welcome to the forum, @Julianne101! Your experience is exceedingly common in the celiac community. First, regardless of how gluten free the food was in the restaurant experience you described actually started out to be, you have no idea what measures were taken in the cooking, preparation and handling to prevent cross contamination. Sounds like to me you are either getting gluten from some unexpected source or you have developed additional food intolerances. It is very common in the celiac community to be intolerant to dairy (CMP or Cow's Milk Protein) or to oats (even gluten free oats, the protein avenin) which have proteins similar in structure to gluten and can be cross reactors.
