Does This Sound Like A Gluten Symptom?

Pre-gluten free I never got diarrhea and cramping. So i'm not sure if this is a new symptom? I ate a burger from a restaurant on sunday for lunch, w/o the bun of course and was on their gluten free menu. HOWEVER, to my surprise 3 hours later I was in bad cramps. I thought this would go away and went to the gym. Started getting extremely fatigued in the gym after doing basically the equivalent of lifting 15lb weights and then the diarrhea came. 2-3 hours later I felt fine except tired.

Does this sound like the burger might've had gluten in it? Ive just never had those symptoms before and want to know if I should stop going to that restaurant.

Thanks!

It sure sounds like one. That's similar to the way I react. It could be CC or maybe they slapped ii onto a bun in the kitchen then remembered and just removed the bun. The restaurant next to my flower shop always makes burgers for me but the last time I had a mild reaction. I've never had that before. I don't know what was different.

I had the same thing happen to me at In-N-Out. I ordered the burger protien style and animal style. Later I had the same thing happen that you explained. It either came from the burger accidentally touching the bun, or CC from the dressing that they use. I found out that the dressing isn't in a pump or a squeeze style bottle. So they just keep dipping the same spatula in the dressing and slapping it on the buns.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
