Eating Gluten After Being Gluten Free

[Debbie-nibbles]

My Dr. thinks I might br gluten intolerant, so I started the diet. Yes I do feel better then I have in a while but I thought I would try gluten again, having a french dip and fries. Today I feel like I have the flu, my stomach is very queasy and I'm very tired. I also don't feel like doing anything at all, including thinking about fixing food at all. What has anyone else felt after getting gluten after being gluten free?

A lot of people have said that they get really, really sick. I have been gluten free for a few months and about a month again I accidentally ate something that was totally full of gluten and nothing happened. Recently, I've been feeling kind of sick again and think I might be getting something in my system. I just feel nauseous a few times a day, especially when I first wake up.

I feel like crap usually for a good 2 weeks after being glutened. I usually get feeling tired, nausea, anxiety, etc. It is not a fun feeling.

Scratchy throat, splitting tongue, sinuses whacked, bellyache, headache, V and D, low grade fever, muscles ache...oh about two weeks worth each time now with a small accidental glutening like some cross contamination. The one last year that got me was a major incident that took eight months and multiple hospital trips to get over. I hope never to get hit that badly again.

major brain fog, head ache, fatigue, c or d, depends, all for about a week and a half or so...

Migraine, heartburn, depression, unexplained sobbing, constipation, nausea, flashes of anger, fatigue, saddness, lasts from a week to two weeks. Also variable eating conditions - will feel like crap most of the time but sometimes my stomach will seem almost normal, and all symptoms will subside, until I eat something ungentle (coffee, chocolate, anything fried, anything greasy, cheese, sugar) and then it all comes back again. It's frustrating when I start feeling better and are sick of broth and rice and bananas and basic foods, eggs, salmon, and then I eat something more normal and get sick all over.

Pretty much now if I start crying for no reason I know it's gluten. If I haven't put the pieces together by then, that seals the diagnosis for me. And all this can happen from eating the equivalent of a bread crumb or two... it's a major bummer.

Even with all that though, I feel so much better the rest of the time, I know there's hope. I'm kind of down today because I got glutened again yesterday at lunch and it was a rough night.
