Not Feeling Well Since gluten-free

Hi,

I've been gluten-free for almost one month now and am feeling yucky - stomach upset, diarrhea. Is this some sort of die-off?

Don't worry, I'm not going back, just wondering how long it will take to feel better.

Thanks

It can take a while and you might be sensitive to all foods until you begin to heal. Also you might want to review your diet to make sure something is not sneaking past you.

What have you been eating and did you eliminate all possible sources of cross-contamination-- Old pans, wooden spoons, new toster, etc?

Since I've become gluten-free two months ago I've noticed that as soon as I do not have enough fibre (that I used to get from tons of gluten-laden products) I have those symptoms. When I get enough fibre no problem. Perhaps something else to look into? My dietician told me to get 25g per day so I am really trying to adhere to that.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
