I have been Gluten Free for about 4 days now and I have a punding headache today! I can't get it to go away and I am so tired (but I had a child in ER this morning as well) so that may be the reason I'm dragging. LOL

 

 

If this is withdrawl how long does it last??

That headache lasted a little over a week for me.  Yuck. I hope you feel better soon and that your child is okay.

Yes, I had slight headaches in the back of my head and frontal lobe that weren't severe but just irritating. About a week for me until they went away completely. I also cut out caffeine completely the same day that I went gluten free so that may have been the cause for mine.

Sorry about your child.

LOL! No sorry I should have been more clear. My almost 17yr old was in the ER and now in ICU with a blood clot all the way up her thigh. She is one of those rare people that got a clot due to birth control pills.

 

Thanks for the feedback. I still have a headache on and off and just an upset tummy most of the time. Can't wait for this to pass,

omgosh, sorry i misunderstood - i hope your daughter is alright.  if my kid was in the ICU, i would have a headache and stomachache, too!  hope you feel better.  (stress does me in.  my doc gives me a xanax script for especially stressful times.  i hardly ever take it, but when i need it, it keeps me from losing my lunch/dinner, etc iykwim)

      Celiac for dummies

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
