Your Celiac Diet And Symptoms

Hi Everyone,

I would love to know this. Are there various degrees to Celiac?

For instance, can some splurge on rare occasions ( a few things on the weekend) and have no effect?

is there any room for cheats?

Also can you please list how and when your symptoms hit, after you have eaten it.

Is it gradual or do you feel sick right away.

Can you eat gluten and feel no difference at all/and have it be delayed.

(i have the DQ8 Gene) i get; muscle aches, ulcers in my mouth, headaches, ocd....appx. every 2 months

i get huge intestinal flares that feel like ulcers/and it feels like it is going to kill me.

have tried gluten free before and didn't feel huge changes, although it was only a month.

I am going to do entrolab stool test. Do you think it is reliable? Some have said that everyone from that

lab shows positive and it's not very reliable.

Thank you for answering my questions.

I've been gluten-free for 2 weeks now, great improvement since. Whenever I get glutened, I don't feel it right away but my heart starts beating really fast about an hour or two later. Keep a diary and write how you feel after each meal, you'll notice a pattern sooner or later, good luck!

Everyone is different. Some are super sensitiveness and can't eat things even made on the same lines...others are not.

Cheating with no effects....I wish! Yeah any time I eat anything with gluten I suffer. No and's if's or buts!

Yes effects can be delayed up to a couple of days.

A month is not enough time. I've been gluten free 9 months and some of my signs just went away last week.

      Scott, I know full well that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and gluten sensitivity is not. And I agree that there is inconsistency in the use of the terms. But my contention is that "gluten intolerance" should not be used of NCGS since "gluten sensitivity" is actually found in the gluten disorder known as Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity and, therefore, "gluten intolerance" should be reserved as a common/nonmedical equivalent for celiac disease. It also seems to me that "intolerance" implies something more severe than does "sensitive". And it just seems to me that, though there is still a lot of inconsistency in the use of these terms, there is a movement toward using "gluten intolerant" to refer to celiac disease rather than NCGS. But that is just my opinion and perhaps, to be honest, a bit of a personal crusade. Actually, we would all be better off if we quit using the those informal terms "intolerance" and "sensitivity" and just speak of celiac disease and NCGS.

      Wow. I mean, I REALLY don't want to give up beer, but I NEVER cheat. I get caught (glutenized in my vernacular), but I never cheat. I didn't even know that was a thing...

      PS - Many new celiacs report that they can go gluten-free, with the exception of giving up beer. That seems to be a bridge too far from many celiacs, and may be why nearly 20% cheat on their diets:

      For those with celiac disease we know that there is a huge range in sensitivity, for example we've had many members here who report that even smelling wheat bread cooking in a bakery, for example a bakery in a supermarket, triggers an immediate gluten reaction that can last days or longer. Is there science to back this up--not that I've seen. Does this mean that it can't happen? Since it does seem to happen to some people, I can't say that there isn't something real happening to these folks.  Similarly there seems to be celiacs who can drink even regular beers, many of which have detectable gluten at under 20ppm, without issues, and many drink gluten reduced beers made from barley on a daily basis without issues, and without elevated antibodies or damaged villi. I also know that some celiacs report getting very sick from a single sip of gluten reduced beer. To be on the safe side it's probably best to stick with a naturally gluten-free beer, however, many of them lack the real beer taste, thus, some celiacs cheat on their diets and just drink regular beer. In this case I think having a choice is important, and drinking a gluten reduced option would be better than regular beer.
