Stomach Symptoms After I Eat Gluten Free?

Hi,

I have a question. I've been gluten free for three months. When I do have symptoms because I eat gluten (cross contamination) I notice my symptoms are worst on day 2 and three, and the worst when I eat. So if I consume some gluten, my symptoms kick in strong the next day/ a few days later, and get really bad after I eat anything. My symptoms are a very sour stomach, pain, and severe bloating. is this common?

Any advise is appreciated, including how to alleviate the symptoms (bloating, sour stomach, grumbling stomach)

Thanks!!!!

Yes, it is common for symptoms to appear a couple days later. It's what makes it so hard to pin point what is causing the problem when starting out or when you have no idea that gluten can even do that to people. It also makes it difficult to know which food you ate that was CC'd. Pain in the butt!

I have no idea how to alleviate the pain but I like to think that I eat extra healthy and drink extra water during that time to help it go away faster- flush it out. But in reality, I am so mentally not with it that I have no real memories of my CC days.

well i love to say that i do have something to help :) that happens a lot to me. i am 16 and i got diagnosed about 3 and a half months ago. i understand where you are coming from. there are enzymes to help. what they do is they help you digest things. so how this helps is the food isnt sitting in your intestines. the enzymes attack the food and help digest. quick digest with plant enzymes. thats what i use. it helps. my boss has some stronger ones that i love. they work a lot better. as soon as i can ask her what they are called i will let you know. this isnt a cure but it helps with the pain. also you may ask for some nausea meds. i have old ones that i use that help a ton. if you ever need anything im here to help. :) i have a lot of answers haha good luck! let me know how it all works out. and il get back to you on the better enzymes

My symptoms come in strongest 24-72 hours after I've been cross contaminated. I normally have a excessively full feeling and bad taste in my mouth 30 minutes after eating, diarrhea the next morning, and then sometimes throw up the second morning after. Blah.

Bri, I'm interested to see what the name of those enzymes are and where to get them.

Thanks,

Pete

You can take milk of magnesia to help get things moving faster. And some Pepto Bismol to help sooth the intestines. Marsh mallow root or okra can do the same thing. L-glutamine is said to heal heal the gut although I don't have any ref for that.

Pro-biotics can also help get things back to normal.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
