How Fast Can A Reaction Occur After Consuming Gluten?

I also get mouth, or should I say tongue, irritations. I have a geographic tongue and when I get a trace amount of gluten - such as second hand beer from kissing, my tongue gets circles and ridges and it is tender. This is always my first and sometimes only sympton of being glutened.

And how long does yours stick around? HOw long until your tongue feels normal? I just posted more about my tongue issues on this board. Let me know if it sounds like you!

My tongue does that ridgey circles tender thing too, it always crops up when I eat slices of apple with peanut butter. I think I'm allergic to that combination of foods? It doesn't happen with just apples or peanut butter, only together, and not every time I eat it either, but that is the only time it happens.

my tongue now seems to have recovered hooray! except in its place i have a full cold and sore throat. but i didnt have mouth ulcers or anything, and there was nothing noticeably wrong with my tongue it just felt bad.

you know what sucks tho? i took cold n flu tablets last night, then went to have some more this morning and was doublechecking the amount to take when i saw down the bottom "Also contains lactose and gluten". WTF?! i just dont get why there is gluten in stuff like that! How long did it take other people to remember to check every single damn thing that they put in their mouth?

I had tortilla chips yesterday and within a few minutes I started reacting. I'm only just learning that even corn chips can have hidden gluten (I'm newly diagnosed), but to have a reaction so quickly seems a little unreal. Is that possible?

Thanks!

My reaction time is usually between five minutes and 20 minutes....but the worse symptoms can be much later and last for hours. I'll still have mild reactions for a couple of days. :unsure:

Yeah for you and your recovery!!!! I wish I could say the same. When you say, "there was nothing noticeably wrong with my tongue it just felt bad," what do you mean by that? and how long have you had your mouth problem? you sound like me....

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?

      You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away.
