How long does gluten take to leave your system?

I have been gluten free for almost a week now and I have felt so much better. Unfortunately, I ordered a gluten free pizza from Dominoes and I know it was a risk but I took it anyway. BIG mistake 😐 I had the pizza on Monday afternoon and at 2.30am Tuesday morning I was woken by a severe headache, which morphed into a migraine, and then some of the symptoms, stomach pain, bloating, nausea. It's now Thursday and I still feel awful, will it get better soon? Today I just feel exhausted and have lower back pain along with the belly pain and nausea 

Thanks to anyone who read :)

It takes me about 3 weeks to recover.  Sometimes the pain is so horrible I need medication to control the pain during that time.  It is like the worst flu you have ever had....for 3 weeks.

Yes, the forum community is discovering that not all that claims to be gluten free is actually gluten free, at least not for the more sensitive segment of our community. And it might not be the pizza itself that is the issue but the definite possibility that the staff a Dominos used the same utensils when cooking, handling and cutting your order that they did on the wheat crust pizzas they were also handling. They may have even cooked it on the same rack and in the same oven.

I am often told that the food arrives at a restaurant gluten free but that they will not guarantee it is by the time it is presented at the table.  I only eat in upscale restaurants where I have had the privilege to speak with the chef before arriving.

Remember, this is a silent killing disease.   Do not be fooled.

I'm sorry to hear you got glutened. This article may be helpful:

Cook all your meals at home. It is too risky to eat supposed gluten free meals in a restaurant. Most restaurants have no clue at all about cross contamination, and the need to have a dedicated area with equipment and utensils specific for cooking gluten free. Nothing is more important than your health and feeling vibrant and healthy.

Peka Wade Newbie

I second that~!

When in doubt, do without.   

I often take my own food to restaurants dedicating the the meal to match as close as I can to the restaurant.  

Remember, the server will be cleaning up your place setting and providing beverage so........LEAVE A GENEROUS TIP~!~!~!

I tried to order a Dominos gluten-free pizza from their App, and a pop up window tells you that although the dough is gluten free, the pizza is not considered gluten-free because they don’t follow gluten regulations, no separate preparing & cooking areas, lot’s of cross contamination possible.

I bailed on their pizza!  Surprisingly ‘Fatty’s Pizza’ does have gluten-free pizzas, and the owner said they are very careful to not have cross contamination with a separate prep area, and the simple act of changing gloves.  I didn’t seem to get ‘Glutened’, just a bellyache from eating to much.  Oh, and Dominos only has Small sized gluten-free pizza, Fatty’s has Large sized.

Another thing, when are the gluten-free Oreo’s coming out?

The gluten free Oreos have been out for months but may not be carried by grocers in your area.

Gluten free Oreos are out in my area. Unfortunately, they contain oat flour. So I can't eat them. 😟

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
