I LIVED on gluten, and I did have withdrawal symptoms, but they only lasted a few weeks, and during that time OTHER things started feeling better so it was no big deal.

I have been Gluten free for a week, and today I have a terrible headache on and off all day.. Is this normal??
It's usual to feel worse during withdrawal from anything as the toxins leaving your body cause symptoms. The toxins get stirred up in the process. A detox bath in Epsom salts could help and drinking lots of water, of course. Hope that helps. Hope you feel better

I'm not sure if it's normal or not. When I first went completely gluten-free, I felt some serious fatigue for a few days - week. I usually really feel it throughout my body when I get some gluten in my diet and feel quite a bit better when following a strict gluten-free diet.
