How Long Does It Take

[porterpotti]

It seems to take about 4-7 days for me to have a reaction to eating gluten and by then I can't remember what I ate that might have done it. I'm just wondering how long it takes for other people.

I get a reaction within hours. Usually around 3-5 hours for something like whole wheat bread.

[gdobson]

My reaction is within a few hours as well...and then lasts about 2 weeks.

[jerseyangel]

About 2 hours.

[wolfie]

Usually about 4-6 hours for me.

Patti......nice to "see" you!!! You look great!

I get the first symptoms in 15-30 minutes.

I'm at about 48 hours. I get some symptoms right away--brain fog, bloated, headache, feel like I have a hangover the next morning. C for the first 24 hours, then all of a sudden the intense cramping, D, etc lasts for about 6 hours. Of course, I'm new to this, so these may change the longer I go gluten-free.

I have been gluten-free for over a year and my glutened symptoms seemed to have changed over time. I used to get sick within a couple of hours. Would stay sick with "d" and fatigue for about a month. Last time I got glutened the reaction was very different. It came on very gradually so I have no idea where I got sick (although I have an idea). I had "d" and horrible brain fog (never had this before). The brain fog went away after about a week but the "d" stayed around for 5 weeks. I know everyone is different.
