How Long After Being Glutened Do You Feel Better?

Forgive me if this has been a thread before....

Last week I made the mistake of eating out about 4 times. All I ate SHOULD have been OK....but I know I was glutened. I had what my husband calls "angry a#s" last week, which means I had to poop a lot, to the point it hurts to walk..... I still have a lot of gas this week. My stomach feels "bubbly". I have indigestion (even though I take prescribed medicine for this) and I have flatulance. It's frustrating because before I stopped eating gluten, I did not have any obvious problems like this. Now, if I get some even through cross contamination, I suffer. And no matter how careful I am about what I eat at a restaurant and after talking with the staff, I still seem to suffer some.....

So, how long does it usually take after being glutened before you feel better? Whenever I'm feeling ill, I get on these board and it helps me to know I'm not the only one.... Thanks to all of you for providing such good support.

Usually for me the nausea, bloating etc. will last 48 - 72 hours. The fatigue, lethargy, lack of concentration etc. will last up to ten days.

Hope you feel better soon.

For me, the nausea, bloating, "d", and other severe symptoms last 5-7 days; but the brain fog, fatigue, muscle aches and pains, etc, last another 5-7 days. So , ususally it takes me 10-14 days to feel "normal" again.

2 weeks seems to be the mean duration of recovery after being glutened, but multiple "glutenings" might prolong this recovery time.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
