How Long Before You Get Sick, After Eating A Reacting Food?

Curious, when you react to something how long does it take for you to be sick.  I am asking specifically for people who get diarrhea as a  symptoms.  I am very very sick this morning, my reactions don’t seem to be always happening right away.  It seems to me the next day that I am very sick.  I meet with GI Dr. again on Wed. I hope they can help me, figure out what is going on.  I am scared that I could have Chron’s disease I think a colonoscopy is in my very near future.  I have already had an endoscopy and my gallbladder removed in Jan. here we go again.

The same thing happens to my stepbrother.He's celiac and sensitive to lactose, so if he eats either he normally is woken up the next morning with D. He doesn't notice he's accidentally eaten something he shouldn't right away. But also I know people who start to feel off about an hour after they eat gluten. I think it depends on the person! I'm sure you and your GI can figure out what's going on! Good luck and I hope you start feeling better :)

For me, it's usually not long before I am very bloated and just ugh feeling. It's usually within a few hours or the next day that I am having D. I hope you find answers soon!

For me, it depends on what it is, honestly. Some things I can tell within 15 minutes because I start blowing up and others I will get slammed with the next day.

I usually feel like something is just "off" in the world starting within half an hour, the next day is filled with the worst smelling farts, then about 40-50 hours after glutening it all comes rushing out and that's the sign that I can start moving on with my life after eating tons of yogurt and drinking lots of water. It makes it difficult to know what the source of gluten was but it's a predictable cycle.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
