A gluten exposure for me can trigger my celiac disease which can cause GI issues for 1 to 2 months.  That means it hurts to digest anything.  I also become lactose intolerant during that time.  Everyone is different.  But if symptoms persist and the gluten free is strictly being followed, you should see a doctor.  He or she can help you determine additional food intolerances, SIBO, gastritis, EOE, pancreas, liver and gallbladder issues, and other autoimmune issues like Crohn’s or Ulcerative colitis.  A gluten free diet is not going to help those issues.

Are you asking how long after initially going gluten-free did it take the pain to stop, or if you accidentally get some gluten?

After I got diagnosed it took me 2-3 years to feel normal again, and during that time I would say that the aches, pains, etc., associated with gluten slowly went away. Other foods seemed to also trigger it, even foods with no gluten, so I had to cut out eggs, dairy, corn and tomatoes during that time as well.

When I've gotten accidentally glutened after that recovery period I don't have extreme symptoms, but I take enzymes before I eat out to be sure.

My stomach issues surpisingly resovled rather fast! I still have the fullness feeling, but no pain! It took about 2-3 weeks on strict gluten free for my stomach pains to go away. Everyones body is different so dont give up!

Mine never really stopped. I throw up about every other month for a period of time at home or at public restrooms. Then go about my daily business as if I never happened.

Hi, how long for the fullness feeling to go away, do you feel better now?

I don't really know. It kinda just went away over time. For now I'd avoid really acidic fruits like oranges

      I'm 70, had gut issues my whole life. 15 years ago my grandchild was diagnosed with celiac. Since I had a constant either constipation or diarrhea and what the doctors thought was fibromyalgia and other issues I decided to see what happens if I quit gluten. I got a lot better. BTW, 30 years ago I had head & neck cancer, the radiation destroyed my...

      FDA says that most drugs are gluten-free???

      I had been glutened from somewhere since I pretty much make all my food from scratch. I had to have an endoscopy which should gluten damage, had blood work which also indicated high gluten. 4 years ago when I had these tests my gluten levels were all in good alignment. It comes down to my levothyroxin accord brand that must have gluten in it. I switched to...

      That somes it up. It is worth mentioning GliadinX does not reduce symptoms for me at all. I also react to banana, avacado, cabbage, Oatmeal, and pecans among other things. If anyone else out there is like me, I had to eliminate gluten and all processed food before I could start to heal. I wish I had know this a long time ago. Thanks for the acknowledgement...

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      Thanks for sharing this detailed explanation. It’s really helpful to understand the differences between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. I had no idea that gluten withdrawal could feel similar to addiction, and it’s great to have that context when considering how it affects people. It’s also good to know how important it is to continue eating glute...

It was high, or above normal range. immaqnt is, I believe, what is also known as "total IGA" and at 160, looks to be in normal range since it wasn't flagged otherwise. This is a test for IGA deficiency. If someone is IGA deficient then all other IGA test scores cannot be trusted as being accurate. You are not IGA deficient. Here is a primer explaining the various tests that can be used to...
