I've had symptoms wake me up several times. Once was so bad I woke up and went straight to my dad (he's a PA) until the doctor's office was open and we did an ultrasound to make sure I hadn't unknowingly swallowed a small wombat that was trying to claw its way back out. Earlier this year when the nausea was really really bad I'd wake up all the time thinking I was sure to throw up.

I used to get that all the time when I was eating gluten. I'd wake up at like 2 or 3 in the morning and the sheets and my pillows would be absolutely drenched with all my cold sweat. I'd have the shakes really bad, felt very weak, very disoriented, heart was always racing, chills, cramps in my feet and calves, sharp stabbing pains in my stomach... It used to be so bad sometimes, I'd have nightmares about being in that much pain and then I'd wake up in that much pain. The nightmares were my body's way of trying to wake me up I think.... I don't really have that happen at all anymore now though since I went gluten free...

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. ...

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease.

Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.
