Gluten Free For 2 Or So Months

I've been gluten free for about 2 or so months I think now, and I haven't had any stomach aches from eating any foods while being gluten free so I don't think I've been glutened, I only believe this is true because i had a small sip of beer about a few weeks into being gluten free before i reset the time frame and 15 minutes later y stomach was killing me, uncontrollable bloating and turning of my stomach and instant trip onto the toilet. and i thought why did I get a sudden horrible, painful stomach ache so suddenly, then I realized what i did! well now its been 2 more months. I feel as if my hair feels fuller and well less thin. Not that I lost hair but it just feels way softer and has more volume, could it just be because of my recent haircut 2 weeks ago or could it be me being healthier? I also didn't go nuts on trying to bu a new toaster or anything for my gluten free waffles and different silverware or anything and have been fine as well. I've only gained 3 or so pounds since being on this diet, but hasn't went up a bit since. how long til I start gaining any weight, I'm 20 years old and am at 100 pounds, was just diagnosed before my birthday this past august. This diet is great for me and I do feel better but mentally I'm still pretty depressed about things including going out with friends and ordering a lame steak. I'm sick of rice, and Gluten free pasta haha. this life I'll never be used to, but I guess its the life I've been given, ill take it over feeling like crap.

is there anymore things that I should see if I notice that have improved since I've been on this diet? other than less back pain and more energy???

how did you feel, what did you notice?

      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?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      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/
