Till I get to the doctor next week to dicuss things, I'm continuing to eat gluten. I've been eting at least one peice of bread a day since last week. Well today I decided to eat 2 peices of bread at one time asmy lunch. Within a hour I started to feel very tired and like a heaviness in my head. I feel like I have a sick feeling in my throat. Like I could vomit but not quite.

I used to feel like that everyday after my whole wheat toast. So yeah I guess it might be normal if you have problem with gluten but are eating gluten. I wish you luck with eating gluten, please stop if you feel like you are getting too ill :(

Yep.  Could be normal for Celiac.  Could be the afternoon sleepys that a lot of people get.  Open Original Shared Link

The extreme tiredness is my first sign I have been heavily glutened. It appears within 90 minutes (normally closer to 30 minutes) and to me feels like I have been awake for several days straight. It is horribly impossible to fight off the sleep. However, with trace amounts of gluten (ie, a restaurant putting toast on my plate, then removing it), I do not get the fatigue, it jumps ahead to sever abdominal pain. The gonna be sick feeling is 3-4 hours after consumption.

*this is just my reaction, everyone is different*

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.

      Thank you, Trents.  I appreciate your helpful and friendly reply. It seems more likely to be a bug.  It has been a pretty severe bought. I feel that I don’t have enough experience to know what signs my little one shows after exposure to gluten.

      Hannah24, be aware that if you are on a gluten free diet, you will invalidate any further testing for celiac disease (except genetics) and would need to go back to eating significant amounts of gluten for weeks or months to qualify for valid testing.

      Hello, @Hannah24 Have you had a DNA test done?  Celiac Disease is genetic.  You must have at least one gene to develop celiac disease.  You don't have to be consuming gluten for a genetic test.   Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives.  Some lucky people are seronegative, but still have celiac disease.  Peripheral neuropathy, tingling in hands and feet are symptoms of vitamin deficiencies.  Vitamin C, Thiamine B1, Niacin B3, Pyridoxine B6, and Cobalamine B12 can each cause peripheral neuropathy.  These same vitamins are needed to produce blood cells.  Most undiagnosed Celiacs suffer from nutritional deficiencies. The DNA test would be helpful.

      We do hear of cases of remission but they generally eventually revert back. I wouldn't push your luck.
