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. ;)

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
