Eating after Glutened

[MariaMart]

My gastroenterologist mentioned I may be Glutened. I’ve researched and many of my symptoms match. However, I don’t know what to eat as I let my body heal. Suggestions? Thanks!

Welcome to the forum. Did you get diagnosed with celiac disease? It sounds like you are on a gluten-free diet now, is that correct? Here is a starter guide if this is correct:

I find Cream of Buckwheat cereal to be soothing and easy to digest. I use Pocono brand. It is grown and processed a couple towns over but is available nationwide and they may have it available off line. Other than that I go with stuff that is easy for me to digest. Homemade chicken soup, well cooked veggies and fruits etc. I hope you heal quickly.

Thank you for the responses. I’ve had blood test (negative) but have to wait for other test hopefully in June. Therefore my doctor is trying to support until we know for sure.

for me, personally, I just eat whatever i'm hungry for.  sometimes, just gluten-free toast or something light, a little tea.  or, sometimes, after i'm done feeling icky, i'll eat a huge meal.  that being said, I've been on gluten free diet for 10 years.  your guts might be more sensitive if you're just starting this journey.

fyi - my blood test was negative, too.  but, I went gluten free before doc tested me (at the advice of another doc, lol ?)  but within 2 weeks, I was feeling much better and gained 20 lbs, I was dangerously underweight and could not digest anything before that.  good luck!

edited to add:  I did have a follow up endoscopy that the g.i. doc could see the damage but I was advised not to do a gluten challenge because I was dangerously malnourished.  

what scott said below = true story.  my case was a little different.

I think you may know this but in order to get further testing for celiac disease done you need to be eating gluten daily for at least 6 weeks, otherwise your test results might be false negative.
