How Long Do Your Glutening Symptoms Last?

I unfortunately was glutened two days in a row from eating out (I officially will NEVER eat out again, lol) and here we are on Saturday, and I still am nauseated. I was glutened on Tuesday and Wednesday. The nausea is so bad I am having to take pretty heavy duty nausea meds just to keep food down. It's awful.

My question is, how long do these symptoms last for everyone. I do realize everyone reacts differently, but this seems really long for me.

At the beginning of the diet, and for probably a year and a half into it at least, my symptoms would last for about 2 weeks. It wasn't until about the 2 year mark that I began to feel consistantly better, able to tolerate more foods and my accidental glutening symptoms (the GI ones) only last a couple days. The anxiety and brain fog still hang on longer.

I had a lot of nausea early on, and that has gradually gotten better.

It used to last a few days for me. Fortunately for me good old pepto bismal liquid now takes care of it and the pain on the first dose and it doesn't usually come back. I don't know if you have tried pepto but if not perhaps it might help.

Have been gluten-free for only 6months. I find that nausea and bowel trouble are minimized by fasting for a day after being "glutened" and I naver eat out " have been become quite the gourmet cook as a result lol "as I am very sensitive and suffer with muscle fatigue, bone and joint pain and DH all of which I find to be more debilitating than associated stomach problems. Epsom salt baths also seem to help to draw unwanted toxins out and decrease my symptom length. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the responses.

Unfortunately Pepto Bismol makes me worse. It's also really bad because I have to eat at least 10-15 grams of fat at breakfast and dinner so I can take a medication, this only makes things way worse. ;)

      No! Do not start the gluten free diet until you know whether or not you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to verify the blood antibody test results. Starting gluten free eating ahead of either form of diagnostic testing can invalidate the results. You don't want to allow the villous lining of the small bowel to experience healing ahead of testing by removing gluten.

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

      Thank you! What do you recommend in the next 7 weeks until I see my Doctor?  Just start my Gluten free diet?

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
