Does Anyone Else Only Throw Up A Few Hours After You Eat Gluten?

Once, after I had been gluten free for about a year (I think), my family was eating pizza and I decided, "what could one tiny slice hurt?" So I ate a few bites of one slice. I felt fine after; however, a few hours later, I threw up 3 or 4 times. And that was my only reaction. My reactions don't seem as bad as other peoples; so I'm just curious if anyone else is like this. I haven't eaten gluten on purpose since then, so I don't know if my reactions have changed or not.

I have had that happen only once about 3 monhts ago when I consumed a large amount by accident. I went to Olive Garden and decided to try the gluten-free pasta. I usually have the mixed grill or the steak and steamed broccoli but I was in a pasta mood. My server clearly had NO CLUE what it meant when I told her I was ordering from the gluten-free menu. I should have asked to speak to the manager when I noticed her hesitation but I have had only good experiences at Olive Garden before this and I knew that the gluten-free pasta was premade and just heated in a microwave in it's own little pouch. So I figured it would be hard to mess up. The salad came out with no croutons just as I had requested. Then my pasta came out. I tasted it and it was really good, actually I was surprised that the flavor was really familiar...it was NOT gluten free! I asked my husband to taste it just to make sure I wasn't imagining things. After all, it had been over a year since I had wheat pasta but he had eaten wheat pasta more recently and would know the difference...My husband tasted it and confirmed that if that was gluten-free pasta, it was the best tasting gluten-free pasta he had ever tried. I ate a few more bites hesitantly and then started to feel sick. By the time we got home from dinner I was running for the bathroom to throw up. I spent the rest of the night violently throwing up. Even worse, I had all my typical glutening symptoms the next day despite the throwing up. :(

I got glutened at Carrabbas off of their gluten free menu (I suspect the cook put the grill sauce on my chicken)and I threw up half way through my meal! Wierd thing is, I was known for NEVER throwing up in my gluten eating life so now that I am gluten free I throw up when I get glutened. I think your body just says, "WHOA! I thought we got rid of this crap already! Let's get it out PRONTO!"

I haven't been diagnosed with anything at this point, but throwing up is something I've been doing about once or twice a week for the last year or so..since cutting out gluten I haven't had to once....hmmmmmm

I usually do about two hours after and get really sick to where I need to stay in bed for at least 4 hours. It usually hits me about an hour after eating. Not fun at all! It's probably best because if I just had diarrhea from eating wheat, I would probably cheat.

I've only just started the gluten-free diet, so I don't know what my symptoms of being glutened are yet, but my pre-diagnosis symptoms involved a lot of acid reflux and the strong desire to vomit--even burping up chunks of food. but I have practically no gag reflex, so that might explain why I never actually vomited. (I can reach my finger all the way down the back of my throat--past the end of my tongue--without gagging at all.)

Thanks for this; it makes me feel better. I had Indian food last night, which is usually not a problem. I've been gluten-free for 6 years and have never thrown up, but I did last night after feeling very nauseated. It kind of freaked me out, but I guess my body just wanted to get rid of the gluten as you say. But I had D not long before I threw up, which IS normal for me after I've eaten gluten. I am so careful that maybe my body just reacts in this violent way now on the few occasions I ingest gluten...

Yeah, I tend to throw up when I've eaten a lot of gluten. When I first got diagnosed I remember going through my cabinets checking labels and it finally clicking in my head why I was throwing up after I ate certain things; they all had gluten!

Hi, just stumbled upon this thread and noticed your username as dolphin..... is that your surname? Mine is dolphin too and I have coeliacs disease, as it’s a very uncommon surname I’m wondering could we be very very distantly related?!

      Augmentin (amoxicillin) syrup

      By Sergiu2020 · Posted

      Good point. I will go to the pharmacy to ask who is the provider of this Augmentin and i'll contact them. The problem is i need to know about it very fast cuz i am already delaying the antibiotics administration. My little girl is not afraid of injections but i cannot say she likes them. It's normal. We did choose the syrup solutions because it was the easiest. Of course where there are flavors added...the mighty gluten may be present or not. Thanks a lot for your time and for the reply! 👏

      Gluten Free Daily Vitamins for Kids w/ Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      You can always just double up or triple up on whatever gluten free chewable multivitamin product you may already be using. That should cover the bases. Celiacs need the same vitamins and minerals as non celiacs, just in higher doses to compensate for less efficient absorption. Are you wanting to boost any particular vitamins or minerals? I seriously doubt you will find a vitamin product specifically designed for celiac kids. There just isn't a big enough market for such a product to provide the incentive for a company to invest in such a product line.

      Enegy level extremely low

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @Sicilygirl, I had lost a great amount of weight, felt depressed, and had no appetite early on.  I found that taking Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine extremely helpful.   Doctors routinely check B12 and Vitamin D, but they fail to test for deficiencies in other B vitamins like Thiamine, because blood tests for other vitamins are not accurate measures of deficiencies.   Low Thiamine can result in depression, anxiety, unintentional weight loss, loss of appetite, and  emotional lability (quickly changing emotions and moods), and gastrointestinal symptoms (gastrointestinal Beriberi).  These symptoms of low thiamine can be easily brushed aside and contributed to other things.  The best way to tell if one is low in thiamine us to take it and look for health improvement.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  No harm, no foul for trying it.   I took a B 50 Complex along with 300 mg Benfotiamine twice a day with the first two meals of the day.  A one a day multivitamin does not provide sufficient amounts to overcome the  malabsorption of celiac disease and correct low vitamin levels stored inside cells.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so any extra or unabsorbed is easily excreted in urine.  The eight B vitamins work together.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  If there's not sufficient thiamine, the other B vitamins are not utilized and not stored inside cells.  Thiamine is needed for iron absorption.  Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D. We need more Thiamine when we are physically stressed by illness, emotionally stressed, and physically active.  Coping with Celiac covers all three.  Thiamine stored inside cells can become depleted within three days to three weeks.  Symptoms can change depending on how much thiamine is absorbed from your diet.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine results in an eighty percent increase in brain activity, so symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  The brain just thinking can use as much thiamine as leg muscles use running a marathon.  Mitochondria become sick and die without sufficient Thiamine.     Doctors aren't required to take many nutrition courses in their training period.  (Twenty hours of nutrition education out of seven years at medical schools funded by pharmaceutical companies.  Vitamins cannot be patented, so doctors cannot make money by prescribing vitamins like they make money by prescribing pharmaceutical drugs.).    I started feeling better within a very short period of time after taking Benfotiamine and a B Complex.  I also took magnesium, because thiamine and magnesium make life sustaining enzymes together.   Giving the body the vitamins and minerals it needs to function will increase your health.
