Delayed Reaction?

does anyone know if you can have a late reaction to gluten. Vincent has broken out in hives starting friday afternoon. I didn't know if this could be from Cross contamination or something he ate on thursday afternoon when he went out for lunch with a cousin. We have not seen this reaction before with him. We are also thinking it might be the sunscreen but i check the ing. and everything looks ok and he has never had a problem with any before.

I just dont know. With it only being about 5 weeks in to this diet and his celiac test being neg i dont know how much cross contamination i need to worry about or is it better to say away as much as i can?

My dd gets crampy and has d within minutes of eating gluten, but my son has a reaction about 24 hours later, with d and he becomes a raging lunatic, drop down, drag out tantrums and fits---we were in the midst of one all day today <_< I seems to be different with each person. Oh, and my dh who still doesn't think he has a gluten issue, has a reaction within 30 minutes----but it MUST be something else :rolleyes:

It can take up to 48 hours, or so I have read.

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
