4 months gluten free, still bloating?

Hello all!

Update on my gluten free journey. I am 4 months in and I am beginning to get my energy back, granted some days are better than others, of course. 

I have been on a consistent intake of multi's, probiotics, l-glutamine, D and Magnesium.

I am curious when you all started to see improvements in your bloating? Mine has improved, but, it is definitely still inflamed and one of my more apparent symptoms. Obviously, DECADES of gluten exposure will not go away over night. But, I am curious of your experiences with this particular symptom on your journeys. 

Thank you!!

Meg.

In my case bloating went away in the 6-12 month time period after going gluten-free.

Of course bloating can be caused by many things, so it is possible that you have an additional food intolerance, for example to milk, oats, corn, etc., so you may want to keep a food diary to see if you can find a connection. Not enough or too much fiber can also cause such issues...usually too much.

      I agree with @trents, they should have run a total IgA. What was the normal range for the DGP IgA test? Different labs use different units thus have different normal ranges.

      Get your total IGA checked to make sure your celiac antibody test scores are trustworthy.

      I do eat 4 slices of wheat bread with almond butter. Yes it was a reference to my iron consumption.

      To give you a frame of reference for pretesting gluten consumption necessary to ensure valid antibody testing, here is the current recommendation for those who have been on a gluten free diet: The daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks. Not sure why you mentioned eggs and chicken...
