Delayed Reaction Time - Fustrated!

I'm getting so fustrated lately. Does anyone have a delayed reaction time when eating gluten? How do you know what caused the problem...I had dinner tonight, absolutely NO gluten! (gluten-free Spegetti, Sauce, Salad and Wishbone Ranch)...after dinner I've been in the bathroom three times with the big D! Look back because I've been keeping a food log and I think my reaction time is two days. I think I'm having this problem from something I ate two days ago..this morning I went completely normal...Does this make any sense???

Some people seem to have a reaction RIGHT AWAY. Mine is always the same. I eat and everything is pretty normal, then I go to bed and wake up with a horrible intense headache, heartburn, intestinal cramping, D, and pain in my jaw joints. It lasts about 24 hours and then I feel ok again. But, it's always after I go to sleep and wake up. I never start feeling it right away. That's just me though...everyone is different. It is good you are keeping a journal. I am starting that too. It's only been 4 months since I've been diagnosed and I am averaging getting glutenated about 1-2 times a month. I think it'll get to the point where you'll know exactly how your body will react and what you ate. Hang in there!

I am the same way when I eat gluten. I go to bed fine and wake up feeling awful. Some times it can be 24 or 48 hours after.

I feel it the next morning like the two previous posters. It takes my son 2 days to feel it. Boy was that confusing until we figured it out!

I eat Tinkyada pasta...which is not the culprit. I've been eating it for six months now. I think I'm having a problem with vinegar...damn...or maybe dairy. I'm going to have to do the process of elimination....this really ticks me off...

I also take a long time to react. I think that I react about 24 hours after ingestion of the culprit. But I can't be for sure. But that is my guess.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Outgrow celiac?

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.
