What To Expect When "glutened"?

Any ideas what I can expect and when? DS has been gluten-free for 2 months now. What should I look out for? He's already been up screaming 3 times in 4 hours. I am so sad and angry.

Also, we were suppose to get blood work done 6 months after going gluten-free. Do you think they'll want to push that back?

Thanks for all the help people! Really. I have tried to help others here and get nothing when I need something. I know nothing is owed to me but I am so over this board.

What are we supposed to say? Everyone's symptoms are totally different, especially once they've been gluten-free for a while and they last for different amounts of time. I hope he's doing better today.

No, they won't push bloodwork back for one glutening. It shouldn't make a difference in the antibodies four months from now.

Sounds like you are already getting answers to his reaction.

Hi Stephanie,

I sure hope your little one is feeling better after the bread ingestion. Accidental glutening is bound to happen; we just went through something similar this week but it was my fault. I didn't panic, just felt bad about it and realized these things are bound to happen from time to time. I think we have to remember that these little guys went for a looong period of time with gluten; so while getting gluten-ed accidentally is not an ideal scenario post diagnosis, the sky won't fall in. They just don't feel well at all, poor little guys. My daughter's celiac friend has violent reactions to accidental glutenings, and I think everyone's child is different. I was wondering the same thing about the 6 mo. follow up bloodwork, but decided I'll tell the GI when we are at that follow up appt. so they have the info. I would think one glutening wouldn't affect the entire 6 mos. that dramatically? In any case, on another note: Don't feel bad if sometimes it takes a few days for people to reply to your posts even w/multiple "views". I've had the experience that no one replies, but it is not personal, its more likely that they don't have the answer. We're all here to help one another out and sometimes you get more info. than others. You sounded upset and frightened about your child, I hope things are better now. Take care. Emily

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
