Hi, I started having diarehha, nausea, and the shakes last Wen. and the symptoms are still persisting. At first I thought it was the flu, then anxiety, and now I'm thinking its a gluten reaction. I have diarehha 24/7 and feel very nausiated. I also have uncontrolable shaking as well. I am not sure if this is anxiety or a gluten reaction and would really appreciate some input. Like, how long does your gluten reaction last. Do you have similar symptoms. I have only been awake for 2 hours and have already used the bathroom 7 times. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Well first off if this has been going on for over four days now you may want to consider seeking medical attention as you are probably dehydrated and you will have lost a lot of essential nutrients if you have been having diarrhea that badly for that long. That being said I am not in the medical profession so that is just my opinion.

When I get glutened I usually take an Imodium AD right away and I usually ok within a day and pretty much back to normal in two or three days. That being said I am not super sensitive (I can take the bun off a burger and eat it or pick croutons off a salad and be fine) so if you are really sensitive you may have a longer reaction time. If you do decide to not get looked at at least drink lots of water and make sure you are getting electrolytes.

You should get to the doctor. Are you a diagnosed celiac? If you are then you may be getting some continued gluten as usually the D doesn't last quite that long when we get glutened. Everyone is different of course. You could have food poisoning and D 24/7 for as long as you have had it should be looked into by a doctor. Hopefully you are staying hydrated but if you can't even keep liquid in your stomach and you are very weak you may want to consider a trip to the ER. Have someone else drive you if you can.

I have been diagnosed with celiacs for a little over two years now. I do also have anxiety issues, but my stomach is really messed up and I could have gotten glutened, but I don't know what from. Except that I ate a Mounds bar on Tuesday. Are those gluten free? I thought they were...

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
