How Long To Reaction?

Hi -

I'm just wondering how long it takes for people to show symptoms after being "glutened"... I'm pretty sure that I ate sauce with flour in it last Wednesday night. I felt "tingly" right away. Thursday, I felt tired and brain-fogged - but no bad stomach problems. Same on Friday - Also, I had to pee often. Then the D* started Saturday & hasn't let up since (it's Tues. now). I don't think I've eaten anything with gluten since last Wed. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Thanks.

All that I can tell you is that if is different for different people. My mom is sick in less than an hou and better just as quickly. My sister's reactions are more delayed. I never have the classic reactions so I must be extremely careful. I could do damage without knowing.

My allergy doc just told me that gluten reactions are more frequently delayed - like they happen a day or two after the exposure as opposed to within minutes...

This is a pretty individual thing--everyone reacts a little bit differently.

I start to get symptoms within about 2 hours. My reaction is worse on days 2 and 3--I'm very nauseous, brain fogged, crampy, etc. It begins to improve after that, but I don't feel completely back to normal for more than a week.

Hey there -

Thanks for the responses! Another question: Does the magnitude of the response correlate to the amount of gluten ingested? I think that this last reaction has been my worst since going on the diet over 2 years ago. I also think that it's been my worst contamination...

Take care

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Long term recovery

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By marinke · Posted

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      @DayaInTheSun what were the shortness of breath symptoms for you ? And did they come on all of a sudden or was it a gradual increase in said symptoms?

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      By DayaInTheSun · Posted

      I had shortness of breath so much so I went to a lung doctor. I told him I get short of breath wirh certain foods, he said “Food doesn’t affect hour breathing.” I told him maybe it was an allergy  he cut me off then said “Food allergies don’t cause shortness of breathe.” I beg to differ as soon as I figured out what foods were causing my shortness of breath it went away. I also never saw him again as he was rude, condescending? And refuse to listen to me kept dismissing my problems as “you’re young.” I cut out Soy, dairy, sesame, eggs, and of course gluten. I stopped being short of breath, going on a two years now. No thanks to the doctor I saw. Figured it out on my own.
