Hey guys!

Im curious ;) This has been the longest in 8 mos that it has ever taken me to get over a glutening. I ate something last Saturday and still havent figured out what i did. So it is now day 7 and i dont feel any better.

Do yal have any recommendations as to what you do? I know not to try anything new during this time but should I be eating bland food? B/c everything i eat hurts me.

Thank u for any advice!

I eat buckwheat hot cereal, so much like cream of wheat it is scarey, with cinnamon and a bit of sugar. It is real high in digestable protein for a cereal and quite soothing. Yogurt if you can tolerate it is also good, it helps to get the good bacteria back in balance. I also make real sure I am taking my sublingual B12, drink lots of water and get as much sleep as my body needs, after the gluten speed effect wears off anyway.

I tend to stick to bland foods after a glutening or when unwell but I follow my appetite/cravings within reason. If you're not already, you may want to try eating many little meals throughout the day. I think it is easier for an already stressed digestive tract to avoid eating too much at once. It is also a good way to keep your blood sugar stable throughout the day which is important to feeling well whether or not you're dealing with diabetes or other blood sugar issues. Also Pedialyte is a must for me at the first sign of GI distress. Being dehydrated is a sure way to make you feel even crummier.

Bland foods for me too!!! I also take probiotics when I get CC'd or glutened cuts the recovery time in half!!!

I try to remember to take them everyday but generally end up taking them if I feel yucky!!!

I never had buckwheat cereal...I tried cream of rice and didnt care for it. Where do you usually buy yours at? I might look into this, it seems like a quick and filling breakfast.

The past 4 years I went to dance camps at UF and USF and constantly got glutened, no matter how hard I tried. Fruit always made me feel better. I would usually eat some sort of fruit, drink lots of water, and take a little nap. Most of the time afer that I would have enough energy to finish my day "normally".

I buy the Pocono brand at either my local health food store or at wegmans. It is certified organic and is grown and packaged by a company in Penn Yan NY about 20 miles from where I live. The company that makes it also makes some other great buckwheat products including a kasha that is great as a replacement for bulgar wheat in tabollah (sp). The companies name is Birkett Mills, they have a website but I don't know if I can post it with all the spam we have had lately. You should find it easily in a search or PM me if you need to.

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
