Hi there,

I am just wondering if anyone has had experience of being glutened and the symptoms lasting for more than two weeks? I have been sick for 2 weeks now and do not seem to be getting any better?

5 to 6 weeks for me.  That doesn't mean the autoimmune attack has topped completely, just that I don't feel symptoms.

Mine typically last two months more depending on how much I was exposed to and the type. Five months has been the longest.

Oh my gosh, that's awful. Which symptoms continued that long and did they get any easier? I am at the stage where I can't even get out of bed with fatigue, migraines, muscle pain

Digestion issues,  fatigue, and muscle weakness issues normally wear off in 2-4 weeks for me. The waves of anxiety, depression, and numbness keep up for a few months afterwards.

People seem to be very different. I get abdominal pains for about two weeks after I have eaten gluten which slowly fade to nothing. Some symptoms remained indefinitely, they have never gone away.

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
