Question About Being Glutened!

Hey there peoples

I have been fairly well since my last posts in early 06 after defeating a helicobacter stomach infection on top of celiac healing..

I Have had a strict 0% gluten diet and have been fairly well over last few months, i just feel i have received several glutenings at my girlfriends place just over a week ago... i keep getting a nauseous / quivering feeling where i think im about to throwup, ive honestly never had that before , its revolting... sure ive had diareohea/bowel problems but this is more stomach felt and behind the ribs...

my main question is that if a celiac is glutened can symptoms last for over a week? and also does the glutening damage and inflame his/her stomach ? or is it something your over with after two days or so..

i dont know whether to put it down to my gluten poisening and just think , dont worry your stomachs been damaged just chill out and cope with it... or go to the doctors and get a blood / sample test ...

any help much appreciated guys!!!

cheers

I have heard other people on here talk about being sick for a week or more after being glutened. And if there were several in a short period of time, it would make sense to me that you'd be looking at a longer recovery time.

Maybe you could keep some gluten-free only cooking items at your girlfriend's place?

My stomach definitely gets inflamed when glutened. I doubt that you need a doctor, you just need to wait it out, don't eat anything that would be hard on your stomach for a bit, avoid gluten, and you'll be fine.

And yes, you can have symptoms from ONE glutening for two weeks, never mind several in a row.

Yea unfortunately it can last a while. I found that PeptoBismal helped me a bit with this.

I use Zofran or Phenegran when I am so nauseated that it affects my work...as a teacher I can't go home early very easily! You can get these from you dr. Only take Phenegran if you can sleep...it makes you sleepy but definitely makes the nausea go away.

If it doesn't clear up in a few weeks then I would see a dr but for now you probably just need to wait it out and be more careful of what you eat. I think I tend to get careless and then if I get glutened I am more picky about what I eat!

Hang in there!

I get the nausea and feelings of wanting to throw up when gluttened. I take Dramamine and sometimes pepto bismol too if it is bad. Dramamine works great for me and they have a less drowsy formula.

I am still trying to figure out how long it lasts for me, but at least 3-4 days.

I am an old pro at this--5 yrs gluten free this month. Yeah, it can last 2 days, 1 week, 2 weeks and when the nausea and diarrhea go away for me, then my tummy hurts, like a huge black and blue for days. It's never fun being glutened and it will happen from time to time. Take care. Deb

      celiac disease and braces

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      This is a common experience across the board with various brands of gluten-free bread products. Prices go up, size goes down. Removal of the egg component may be for the purpose of cost-cutting related to bird flu supply shortages or it may be catering to those with egg allergy/sensitivity, fairly common in the celiac community.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free...

      My only proof

      Years ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came...

      Your Complete Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Plan: Recipes, Tips & Holiday Favorites

      Wow what a helpful article!! I am just seeing this now but I hosted a small group of family for Thanksgiving at my house this year and I did some of these things- got a butterball gluten-free turkey, got gluten-free stuffing, had a few gluten-free sides, and a gluten-free nothing-Bundt-cake. I had other non gluten-free things there too for others, and I also...

      By Anne G · Posted

Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and did it cause any problems or issues with gum recession?  Her dentist seemed oblivious that celiac patients are at higher risk of gum disease /cavities. Her bottom teeth are crooked but are pretty hidden even when she smiles. Thank you!!

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free. Unfortunately Sainsbury's have changed the recipe and have made it 'Egg Free' too and it has lost everything that made the original loaf so unique. Now the loaf is unevenly risen with 8 x 8cm slices at best, having lost it's bounce with the texture dense and cake like after toasting resembling nothing like White Bread anymore. Unsure as to why they have had to make it 'Egg Free' as the price is the same at £1.90 a loaf. Anyone else experiencing the same issue with it? - also any recommendations for White Bread that isn't prescription? / Tesco's / Asda's are ok but Sainsbury's was superior.

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By marion wheaton · Posted

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.
