Is This A Typical Reaction To A Gluten Slip?

I was diagnosed with celiac disease when I had a biopsy in November. Two (and probably three) of my children have celiac disease and when I started having intestinal issues for the first time in my life, I decided to get checked out. When I went gluten-free, most of the diarrhea stopped. A couple of days ago, I believe I made a mistake in eating some candy that may not have been gluten-free. Yesterday, I just felt bloated and uncomfortable, last night I had very bad diarrhea which continued today, and tonight I am vomiting. Is this a typical course when you are exposed to gluten? I feel horrible, but not horrible like I have the flu--just in my stomach. The candy I ate was from a candy store where they sell things out of bins. Probably a bad decision on my part and I'm paying for it big time!

Hi Yael and welcome :D

It sounds like a gluten reaction to me. Especially since you said that you didn't feel flu-ish. Vomiting isn't as common, but some have it and I know that myself, I don't vomit, but I get very nauesous along with my other symptoms.

The timing is also suspect for gluten, since you can identify a possible trigger--it makes sense.

Hope it passes quickly!

      But you didn't answer my question. When you consume gluten, is there an identifiable reaction within a short period of time, say a few hours?

      You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/

      I am only wondering why you would need to cut out rice? I've never heard of rice being any issue in those with DH.

      My mother has celiac disease and was diagnosed with Afib around 8 months ago. She's 81 and around 2 months ago had ablation therapy done, which is a very common procedure to treat this, and has been out of Afib 95% of the time since then. Apparently the full effects of this treatment don't kick in for 90 days, so the doctors expect her recovery to possibly reach 100%. Be sure to discuss this with your doctor.
