Nausea When Glutened?

I am still getting tested to see if I actually have celiac. I had the blood test and I was IgA deficient so Im seeing a GI soon. My symptoms since going gluten free myself are evolving and are never the same 2 days in a row.

Last night I tried some gluten, as my doctor recommended I be glutened for seeing the GI so he can properly diagnose me. I had half a bowl of honey nut cheerios and started to feel weak and tired and my heart starts pounding a little heavier, all of this which I've experienced before but, just before bed I develop nausea! I managed to fall asleep for an hour with gravol, and woke up feeling nauseous still! took me 2-3 hours after that to fall asleep and now that Im up this morning I don't feel nauseous but I have a bad headache.

Could all this be due to the gluten?

Also I have severe anemia right now that's crippling me and keeping me out of school!

This is all just horrible, I was eating anything and drinking and partying a month ago and I've fallen apart!

Yes, nausea is a symptom of Celiac. For a year before I was diagnosed, I would have my 2 slices of whole wheat toast for breakfast and then by the time I left for work, I felt like I was suffering from morning sickness. I was nauseous A LOT. It's been almost 4 years gluten-free for me and I am never nauseous now!

Good luck and feel better soon!

Yes, nausea can definitely be caused by the gluten!

I was nauseous so often before going gluten free that my doctor thought I was pregnant.

The nausea disappeared after taking gluten out of my diet.

I went undiagnosed for years and up until the year before I was diagnosed all I had was persistant anemia and nausea. I can't tell you how many times I ran out of places because I was afraid I was going to vomit.

Even now if I get accidently glutened, I get nauseous for a couple of days.

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?
