A gluten exposure for me can trigger my celiac disease which can cause GI issues for 1 to 2 months.  That means it hurts to digest anything.  I also become lactose intolerant during that time.  Everyone is different.  But if symptoms persist and the gluten free is strictly being followed, you should see a doctor.  He or she can help you determine additional food intolerances, SIBO, gastritis, EOE, pancreas, liver and gallbladder issues, and other autoimmune issues like Crohn’s or Ulcerative colitis.  A gluten free diet is not going to help those issues.

Are you asking how long after initially going gluten-free did it take the pain to stop, or if you accidentally get some gluten?

After I got diagnosed it took me 2-3 years to feel normal again, and during that time I would say that the aches, pains, etc., associated with gluten slowly went away. Other foods seemed to also trigger it, even foods with no gluten, so I had to cut out eggs, dairy, corn and tomatoes during that time as well.

When I've gotten accidentally glutened after that recovery period I don't have extreme symptoms, but I take enzymes before I eat out to be sure.

My stomach issues surpisingly resovled rather fast! I still have the fullness feeling, but no pain! It took about 2-3 weeks on strict gluten free for my stomach pains to go away. Everyones body is different so dont give up!

Mine never really stopped. I throw up about every other month for a period of time at home or at public restrooms. Then go about my daily business as if I never happened.

it just from all the internal damage and scar tissue. it just never held or ever little. just something I have to live with. After all not like they can replace my whole digestive track. I have a feeling it wont last long  my body just gives out on me from being worn out and lack of functioning the way its suppose to.

Hi, how long for the fullness feeling to go away, do you feel better now?

I don't really know. It kinda just went away over time. For now I'd avoid really acidic fruits like oranges

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Nausea

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy.
