Yes it could be normal. For years I had symptoms sporatically as far as tummy issues went. In my instance I might have stomach pain but only had D every few days for years although it did eventually become an after every meal thing. How long before your testing is done?

It was really sporadic for me. Also, I found I reacted worse to fatty meals. Toast wouldn't cause me nearly the trouble as steak pies with chips. Again, that lunch with the crisps and mars bar also would have had me queasy while meatballs and toast wouldn't be as bad. Lager has gluten in it as well, and alcohol and carbonation are not easy on upset stomachs.

I shied away from rich foods for a long time because they would often go right through me. Things like fettucini alfredo were the worst. I had always figured I couldn't handle the sauce - being sensitive to the pasta never occurred to me! :lol: Not too long after I went gluten-free, I realized I could eat chips (from a dedicated fryer) or cream sauces on gluten-free foods without problems.

22nd September but i dont know how long before i get the biopsy results

Right after you have the biospy done you can start a gluten free diet trial. You don't have to wait for the results. As far as your original question, some people have delays in when the gluten effects them. 24 hours of recording your food and reactions, is not long enough, IMO, to see a pattern. Sometimes gluten gives me symptoms within 20 minutes and sometime it's as long as 72 hours later depending on the amount and type of gluten I'm getting (I'm gluten free now so I'm not eating any on purpose, but I have noticed the reaction time varies when I get accidental gluten).

You don't need to wait for the results to start a dietary trial. Your body may give you the answer before you even get the results.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
