Just curious to see what you all have for a reaction time on average if you accidentaly eat gluten. I usually feel it gradually build up from within a couple hours with the worst coming the day or two after. What about you all?

My gastro symptoms hit within 1-2 hours and my cluster headaches start within 1-8 hours.

This was a hard question to answer. I get my gluten ataxia and my tummy starts to growl within a couple hours, migraines come the next day along with joint pain and an overwhelming depression but the upset tummy doesn't arrive until 2 or 3 days later. My whole reaction takes about 3 weeks to resolve. My 'pattern' makes it pretty clear to me when I get glutened as there is never any doubt it was gluten and not some bug I picked up. I guess in that respect I am lucky to have multiple system impact.

My answer wasn't exactly a black-or-white one... there is definitely a grey area for me. Sometimes it can take a few days. Other times, it is the following day. A reaction for me is never really immediate, which makes it hard for me to pinpoint exactly when. Plus, one of my major symptoms is C, so it can take a few days to realize I have been glutened.

If I get a migraine, though, I know I have been glutened in the last few days.

My tummy starts to hurt within a few minutes. I use this as a way to 'test' before eating something someone else has prepared. An hour or so later I get headache/fatigue.

I don't have celiac disease, but have tested gluten/casein sensitive. 90% of my worse symptoms are neurological, especially the sensation of dizziness within 10 minutes after eating, but I can get brain fog anytime, even if I haven't ingested anything reactive (just about 7 weeks into this, so still in the healing process, I am sure).

When I first went gluten-free/CF, the reaction would last for about 18 hours, but that is drastically less these days, down to just a couple of hours.

Got glutened yesterday ... BOOOOO! My symptoms start within 1 hour. I bloat like a balloon, the gas starts, then nausea, then the blood sugar drops, then the headaches. My blood sugar will dip all night long into the next day. Then I get pissy. My foul mood spilled over today because I snapped at my friend who said her salsa was gluten free...so I said "SALSA IS SUPPOSED TO BE GLUTEN FREE, WHAT KIND OF CRAPPY SALSA NEEDS GLUTEN!" I'll have to apologize tomorrow :o

15-20 mins my stomach starts to bloat and hurt. This lasts for hours and then the humdinger bathroom visits are usually 6-8 hrs later.

vbecton,

Oddly enough, I was just settling down to eating salsa at a Mexican restuarant (after they had carefully prepared food for me in separate oil) when the waitress told me, "Stop!" They actually put a gluten-containing chicken baste in their Salsa! It's good salsa, so I guess anyone who can have gluten has no reason to complain. But, sadly, yeah, salsa can be dangerous!

OMG! I can't believe they add chicken baste to salsa. HOLY COW! Good to know info though as now I'll pay more attention. I'm from south Texas and we take our salsas and Tex-Mex ultra seriously. It's almost a sport around here to grow the best tomatoes & jalapenos for the best salsa. I'm so glad they told you and you avoided a glutening :D

      What should I do with these test results?

      The fact is, we know very little about the mechanism of NCGS at this point. We know much more about celiac disease. Some experts believe that NCGS can transition into celiac disease. And I do not agree with what you read about NCGS not producing any elevated antibody tests. IMO, and I have no scientific data to support this, it's just a hunch base on reading...

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      Statins are a widely prescribed class of medications used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes. Extensive scientific research, including large-scale randomized controlled trials, has demonstrated their efficacy and safety for most individuals. Statins work by inhibiting an enzyme involved...

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      Just judging from the reports we get from forum members sharing their endoscopy results, very common. But we also get a lot of reports of inflammation in those areas coupled with a negative biopsy for celiac. But I wonder if in a lot of those latter cases we are seeing NCGS or a transition from NCGS to celiac. I have no scientific data to support that. It...

      How many grams is there in one slice of wheat bread?

      I don't have symptoms now. But this DGP IgG is high than normal. I read your article. Very nice by the way. Based on it I don't need to do DGP IgG because I don't have IgA deficiency. I did it first time because those days I didn't know the right procedure for blood tests so I did all. What might you do if you was me? Just keep eating gluten and do tests...

And I do not agree with what you read about NCGS not producing any elevated antibody tests. IMO, and I have no scientific data to support this, it's just a hunch base on reading many, many forum contributor test result reports, elevated igg antibodies may signal a transition from NCGS to celiac disease.  But there are other things besides gluten that can cause elevated dgp igg and ttg igg antibody levels. So, yes. I would continue to monitor the situation if I were you and get regular testing. Not necessarily every 6 months but yearly anyway if you can. In the meantime, if you know gluten causes you unwellness, continue to avoid it.

      Statins are a widely prescribed class of medications used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes. Extensive scientific research, including large-scale randomized controlled trials, has demonstrated their efficacy and safety for most individuals. Statins work by inhibiting an enzyme involved in cholesterol production in the liver, thereby reducing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, often referred to as "bad" cholesterol. Importantly, statins do not "remove all fats" from the body, as suggested in your post. They specifically target cholesterol synthesis and do not deplete essential fats, such as those required for brain function, hormone production, or nutrient absorption. The body still maintains its necessary fat reserves, including healthy fats, which are critical for physiological processes. Regarding the claim that statins cause internal bleeding by making blood vessels permeable, this is not supported by scientific evidence. Statins are not known to increase the risk of internal bleeding. However, like all medications, they can have side effects, such as muscle pain or, in rare cases, liver enzyme abnormalities. The benefits of statins in reducing cardiovascular risk generally outweigh the risks for most patients, particularly those with a history of heart disease or high cholesterol. The suggestion to use odorless garlic, magnesium, vitamin K, and calcium for heart health may have some merit, as these supplements can support cardiovascular function in certain contexts. For example, magnesium is involved in muscle and nerve function, while vitamin K plays a role in blood clotting and bone health. However, these should not replace evidence-based treatments like statins when prescribed by a healthcare provider. Always consult a medical professional before making changes to medication or starting new supplements, as individual health needs vary.

Biopsy is not available in my town. I also read somewhere if a person has NCGS he doesn't have any blood tests high. Very confusing situation.
