Tummy pains after going gluten free

[Freequeen]

Hi so I’ve been gluten free a week nearly & I’ve had really bad stomach ache the last 2 days. I was wondering if anyone could advise what I can eat whilst the initial adjustment settles. I know mint tea works well for an angry stomach. Is this normal though? My stomach feels sore, angry, bloated & I had a bad stomach (d) last night. I’ve tried to Google but can’t find much. 
I’ve only had gluten free bread once the rest has been clean eating really rice, chickpea curry, fish potatoes. I was thinking of cutting dairy out too as seen it advised. The brain fog & tiredness have lifted but the sore tummy doesn’t seem to be.... Any help would be much appreciated!

Your on the right track just continue to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in processed food and through cross contamination.

It can take days, even weeks, to get over one gluten episode.

It can take two years or more for the gut to experience full healing after committing to eating gluten-free and every gluten episode can be a setback.

Best approach, particularly during the learning curve, is to avoid all processed foods and stick to fresh meat, eggs, fruit and veggies, simple things using only seasonings your are sure are gluten-free. Also, avoid dairy and soy and any other food you suspect gives you issues.

Also, about 10% of celiacs react to oat protein the same way they do wheat/barley, rye gluten. So that is something you should look at.

Yes, re-check your diet and be sure there is no hidden gluten, and note that gluten-free breads often contain high levels of xanthan gum, which can cause gastro issues in some people:
