stomach upset?

Hi, I was diagnosed with celiac three months ago and have cut out all of the gluten out of my diet, but today I think I ate the wrong thing, and I feel like throwing up,  I have diarrhea, I have a 101-degree fever, and my stomach feels like its stabbing me. 

List of what I ate today

1.potato, red chile, water

2.cucumber, tomatoes and cheddar cheese with the salsa

3.eggs cooked in coconut oil and salsa I got from the Mexican market. I've never had trouble with it before, and I don't understand what my stomach didn't like. I've never had trouble with any of this before, but now old symptoms are coming back. I ran out of ondansetron and I don't know what to do. Are there any herbal remedies you'd suggest? Tips to prevent vomiting. Anything would be appreciated

The fever is a odd one...makes me think you might have gotten food poisoning. It is sometimes possible for homemade salsa to get a bacteria issue as a mess up in the canning procedure makes it a prime spot for culturing. Also depending on method.
I would suggest removing spicy foods and diary for a week or two til your stomach settles down. Pepto and or Imodium might help with the D. I personally use foods high in potassium and coconut flour to bulk up my stools with the D and take extra potassium. Nut meal porridge is my go to in stomach distress, the coconut flour in it absorbs liquid, adds bulk, is high in potassium, and I add in chia or flax meal and other nut butters. Do double check the newbie 101 thread in case you missed something.

      Yes, I did read about the bloodwork diagnosis option and was given the choice for further bloodwork or proceeding with endoscopy. At this point we would like a definitive answer as it will be a lifelong diagnosis and we realize we would have to go back on gluten if we ever wanted endoscopy in the future. I was reading an article from a GI specialist that was of the same opinion, but yes, difficult decision when it comes to your children.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children!

      The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal, although this may not be the case for everyone. This article may be helpful:

      For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes:

      Thank you very much for your response Scott. Apparently the second TTG Iga test was ten times the normal. I’m just surprised that there can be such a huge difference between the test results. It concerns me also that the lab has just recently changed their reporting. There are not really many/ any symptoms anymore. I was suspicious about celiac several years ago, and had my child tested then (it was negative then), so we never thought further about it as the pediatrician continued to tell us his shorter stature must be genetic even though we are average height parents. Also I did not have as much knowledge at the time. I guess we will know more after the endoscopy. It pains me to think this may have been an issue for years. I worry now if we are getting false negatives for my other children also.
