First Day Gluten Free

Hi guys! So yesterday was my endoscopy and today I'm starting my gluten free diet. I haven't gotten the official diagnosis yet but I figure it's for the better in general to start eating fresh non processed food which are naturally gluten free. I am wondering how long after starting your gluten free diets did you start to feel better? I'm feeling very sick today but I assume that's from the meds from my endoscopy leaving my body. Thanks!

Glad your endoscopy is over.  Time to heal?  Hard to say.  Those with celiac disease can take weeks, months or years to recover depending on damage.  Neurological issues seem to take the longest to resolve.  It also takes time to really get the gluten free diet down.  Be sure to read the Newbie 101 tips located (pinned) at the top of the "Coping" section of the forum.

You will feel better soon!

Did you happen to experience a really bad headache the first couple days not eating gluten. I'd assume that cutting out all the gluten and processed stuff from my diet is probably causing these headaches.

People have reported headaches and "withdrawal" symptoms.  I did not experience it, but with celiac disease, everyone's symptoms are often different.  Stay hydrated and rest as much as possible.

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.

      My daughter has celiac disease and has had for a long time. She fell loses strictly gluten-free diet and recently got rid of all cutting boards in any gluten in her house at all. She just had a stool test and it came back showing of gigantic response to gluten in her diet. What could be going on since she doesn't eat any gluten and is very careful about any kind of hidden glue? Help!
