Gluten Sensitivity Recovery Timeline?

Greetings all,

I’ve recently learned that I may have some level of gluten sensitivity.  I got my blood tested a few weeks ago to and it ruled out Celiac disease.  However, I still have a ton side effects (both mental and gastrointestinal) that I’m told can be helped by going on a gluten free diet.  
 

With this info, I wonder about how long I should expect until I have relief from the mental symptoms (for me mainly depression, fatigue, brain fog and anhedonia).  I’ve been trying to treat my depression, which mainly surfaces as anhedonia (inability to feel interest or any positive emotion) for 5+ years, with nothing really helping.  Some of the testimonials I’ve seen online about people having their long depressions be fixed by going gluten-free makes me believe that a gluten intolerance may be the cause of my suffering.  
I guess what I’m asking is how long was it until you saw relief from you gluten caused symptoms.  Primarily I’d like to hear from other who are Gluten sensitive and have had mental health (but will listen to everyone) issues in the past that were fixed from removing gluten from your diet.  
Thank you.

Here is an older thread that might help.

It's different  for everyone, it can be a month or maybe a year. Most probably within a few months. This is assuming the symptoms are in fact related to gluten, which they may not be.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
