Absolutely!!

That's one of the symptoms that led me to find out I was gluten intolerant. It happened mostly when I had some rye bread. Even one slice would make me thirsty within an hour, probably like 20-30 minutes. It would last for an entire day, and no amount of water would relieve the thirst. Not even 12 full glasses, which was about as much as I could drink.

That's weird because I've had a very dry mouth since I went on the gluten-free diet! Always knew I was backwards! :blink:

Yea--gluten does make me thirsty. The first couple of months gluten-free, I was thirsty all the time.

The last time I was really sick because of gluten (last August) I was so thirsty for about 24 hours. I couldn't stop drinking water. The extreme thirst was my first clue that I'd been glutened.

Yes, it's with me, too. With us during the training drinking is allowed, but not during the belt tests. And I always tell my students to train for that. They look even more strange at me, when I drink during training, because I was glutened. But I'm incredible thirsty then, too. And my mouth is so dry, I can't speak to explain the exercises anymore. :blink:

Dry mouth seems to be one of my first signs of gluten contamination. It does make it difficult to carry on a conversation :lol: It sounds funny when I speak.

I have been thirsty all the time for the past three years. I was just diagnosed with celiac disease about 6 weeks ago, and the thirst has subsided some. Seems to be getting better each day. I had mono about 3 years ago and never really recovered. One of my mono-like symptoms, in addition to fatigue and headaches (the primary problems), was thirst. I often wake up feeling hung over. I feel better after a couple of glasses of water. I am hoping that all of my mono-like symptoms are gone after a few more months going gluten-free.

      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.
