glutened or something else?

Hi, i was diagnosed 2 months ago after horrible bone pain. Everything resolved in one month of gluten-free diet! My bone pain was gone although i feel a little ache in my bones sometimes. But  it is really nothing compared to 2 months ago when i was crying almost every day.  Two days ago i ate in a restaurant. It was a birthday party and i  order gluten free food, although i dont have the best feeling if it was really gluten free. Well, yesterday i had again terrible bone pain in my both knees. I was crying all evening, pain killers helped but it lasted almost one hour before i feel better. Today i have really bad ache in my wrist. 

So, my question is (since I never had any other GI issues): How many hours, days after glutened is typically to have symptoms? Is there anyone who has bone ache as glutened symptom? Is it typical to have the same symptoms after glutened like i had before diagnose?

I am not sure what to do. This bone pain triggered my anxiety although i never experienced it before that there might be something worse going on like multiple myeloma or some other horrible disease.

I think you are talking about joint pain?  I don't have joint pain from gluten, but I do get joint pain from eating nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers eggplant).  I avoid it by not eating nightshades.

If your joint pain is caused by an immune reaction it could last for weeks or more.  If it is caused by inflammation associated with gluten and not directly by the immune reaction, it may go away sooner.

We tell people not to eat in restaurants for the first 6 months.  Why take chances with your health when you are just learning the gluten-free diet?  I know experience is a good teacher but the lessons are sometimes hard.

I hope you feel better soon.

      Fosamax is a first generation "bone rebuilder" and I have heard there are newer and better things on the market now. I assume Reclast falls in the second category and gets better reviews according to this website: https://www.drugs.com/compare/fosamax-vs-reclast I think some bone rebuilding can happen when a celiac faithfully begins to practice gluten free eating. How much may depend on a number of factors, not the least of which may be the person's age. May we ask how old you are? Gender may also play a part. What are your reservations concerning Reclast as opposed to Fosamax? And does Reclast pose less risk for bleeds/ulcers than Fosamax? I was diagnosed with celiac disease at age 50 and DEXA scans done at that time showed osteopenia. I am male and 74 years of age. I was on Fosamax for a while but discontinued it. I don't remember why I stopped but it may have been because of GERD. I have not had a DEXA scan follow-up so I can't say for sure whether or not going gluten free at age 50 resulted in any recoup of bone density. But, I have had numerous Xrays of this and that body part over the years since then and no doctor has commented on low bone density showing up in the Xrays. Of course, an Xray is not a DEXA scan but I think in a crude way they can reveal bone density because of how bright the bones appear on a Xray. And in around 25 years I have not had any fractures so I think that may say something. Here's an important question with regard to bone health: Are you on a PPI for GERD?

      @trents I am really not sure lol. I had a doctor who quit with no notice from 2 different practices and I was her patient both times, I just remember her telling me to take it. I guess for the dysphasia or Barrettes Esophagus? I have been taking it for years
