How long does gluten take to leave your system?

I have been gluten free for almost a week now and I have felt so much better. Unfortunately, I ordered a gluten free pizza from Dominoes and I know it was a risk but I took it anyway. BIG mistake 😐 I had the pizza on Monday afternoon and at 2.30am Tuesday morning I was woken by a severe headache, which morphed into a migraine, and then some of the symptoms, stomach pain, bloating, nausea. It's now Thursday and I still feel awful, will it get better soon? Today I just feel exhausted and have lower back pain along with the belly pain and nausea 

Thanks to anyone who read :)

It takes me about 3 weeks to recover.  Sometimes the pain is so horrible I need medication to control the pain during that time.  It is like the worst flu you have ever had....for 3 weeks.

Yes, the forum community is discovering that not all that claims to be gluten free is actually gluten free, at least not for the more sensitive segment of our community. And it might not be the pizza itself that is the issue but the definite possibility that the staff a Dominos used the same utensils when cooking, handling and cutting your order that they did on the wheat crust pizzas they were also handling. They may have even cooked it on the same rack and in the same oven.

I am often told that the food arrives at a restaurant gluten free but that they will not guarantee it is by the time it is presented at the table.  I only eat in upscale restaurants where I have had the privilege to speak with the chef before arriving.

Remember, this is a silent killing disease.   Do not be fooled.

I'm sorry to hear you got glutened. This article may be helpful:

Cook all your meals at home. It is too risky to eat supposed gluten free meals in a restaurant. Most restaurants have no clue at all about cross contamination, and the need to have a dedicated area with equipment and utensils specific for cooking gluten free. Nothing is more important than your health and feeling vibrant and healthy.

Peka Wade Newbie

I second that~!

When in doubt, do without.   

I often take my own food to restaurants dedicating the the meal to match as close as I can to the restaurant.  

Remember, the server will be cleaning up your place setting and providing beverage so........LEAVE A GENEROUS TIP~!~!~!

I tried to order a Dominos gluten-free pizza from their App, and a pop up window tells you that although the dough is gluten free, the pizza is not considered gluten-free because they don’t follow gluten regulations, no separate preparing & cooking areas, lot’s of cross contamination possible.

I bailed on their pizza!  Surprisingly ‘Fatty’s Pizza’ does have gluten-free pizzas, and the owner said they are very careful to not have cross contamination with a separate prep area, and the simple act of changing gloves.  I didn’t seem to get ‘Glutened’, just a bellyache from eating to much.  Oh, and Dominos only has Small sized gluten-free pizza, Fatty’s has Large sized.

Another thing, when are the gluten-free Oreo’s coming out?

The gluten free Oreos have been out for months but may not be carried by grocers in your area.

Gluten free Oreos are out in my area. Unfortunately, they contain oat flour. So I can't eat them. 😟

      There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice.

      It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten.  You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease.  Zinc is also a common defiency.  Its an antiviral.  that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses.  Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps.   When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer.  Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile.   The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine.  Thats why processed foods are fortified.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage.  GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal.  Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio.  The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater.  Healthy is 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1.  So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels.

      Hello, Target recently changed their branding on the Up & Up Loratadine and no long have it labeled gluten free. I've not been able to find any meds labeled gluten free for allergies. Some lists showed them but the the packaging isn't labeled.  Wondering if anyone knows of or has a list that would be safe for Celiac kiddos.

      My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away.

      Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.
