Two Days Until A Reaction?

My DH is not feeling well tonight...crampy, gassy, uncomfortable.

We've been gluten-free for just over a week, and we were seeing some improvement in him. Monday we went to my parents' house for a cookout. It was the first time in over a year that he's felt well enough to eat anywhere else but our house. My parents cooked hamburgers/hotdogs, and while I suggested he just have a hamburger patty w/ no bun, DH was stubborn and insisted that one bun wouldn't hurt him.

He's an adult, so what could I do? Could he be sick now because of something he ate 2 days ago? I know that around here, we've been totally gluten-free since going to my parents' house, so it's nothing he ate here.

If so, I hope this will be a lesson for him!! He has not been tested yet, but I'm certain now that he has a gluten-tolerance issue.

Hi, and welcome to this board. Yes, he could definitely get a reaction two days later! Sometimes it takes me a whole week for the diarrhea to start after getting glutened. A lot of people get a delayed reaction. A whole bun contains a lot of gluten, even a crumb could have caused a reaction.

Very rarely do I have a reaction w/in hours of eating something that has hidden gluten. Usually it's 24 hours which makes it harder to pinpoint the cuplrit. I know you are frustrated at your dh for doing this to himself, but it's a very natural reaction in the first stages of coping with celiac. (been there, done that. )After awhile he will equate the forbidden items with stomach distress and realize that the pleasure of eating the wrong things is greatly outweighed by the problems they cause.

Hello, I have been sick since I was 7. In January of 2005 I stopped eating wheat and gluten. I noticed the difference immedietly. In the begining I to sometimes would not get a reaction for at least 24 hours. Now its an immediete reaction. His tloerence is higher now than it will be. He will notice the difference. He has to stick with it. This disease is deadly if not taken care of. I am 30 years old and now know i will be able to have children one day. This disease was killing me slowly and unoticed. Its very challenging but it will all come together. Good Luck

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley...

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease. Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too. is this everyone’s experience? Can I drink it? I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant react...

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
