Was This Glutened?

Not getting any reponses on the "symtoms" board so I will ask over here. My dd doesn't have intestinal symptoms at all. But last night, she left youth group at church early saying she felt like she was going to throw up. We left and she cried for 15 min. with it and never threw up or went to the bathroom. Then it went away as fast as it came on. She was perfectly fine after that and all night. This doesn't sound like most of your glutened symptoms. THey usually are bad and last longer than 15 min. We had to eat away from home for lunch and dinner but she took her entire meal with her. She didn't eat any other food. Was this gluten or a childhood tummy ache, gas? Just wondering if she is starting to have symptoms. She goes back to the doctor Tuesday so I need to know whether to mention this or is it not consistant at all with glutening!

Honestly and in my opinion, it doesn't matter how gluten affect anyone else. Everybody is different. However I have acute symptoms after I eat gluten, nausea and drowsiness that goes away quickly but I will still be tired and then the morning after is usually bad again. I stay bloated for days and almost feel like I have moments when I react to it again and again until its out of my system. I think if it concerns you, mention it. A doctor won't be able to decipher without all the possibilities on the table. I saw that you said she ate her own meals. Did she take her own silverware? Could cross contamination be an issue in your kitchen?

She did take her own silverware but she drank out of the cup at the restaurant without a straw. I only ordered her a drink. That's all I can think of. But she was literally dancing outside on the porch about 25 minutes after it started. It was just weird. I do have a gluten dd (9) in the house becuase they are retesting her this week to see if she has celiac also. So I had to keep her on gluten. But we are very careful and for 6 months so good ....until yesterday. I guess I could drive myself crazy with this one.

Yeah that's a tough one but typical stomach bugs don't come and go that fast. I also jabent experienced gas that caused extreme nausea either.

Could maybe have been her gallbladder acting up? This can come on suddenly and pass suddenly. Can cause nausea and gas type pains. Just be aware of watching for reactions to greasy or fatty foods.

Many Celiacs have gallbladder issues. They seem to go hand in hand? I was told I needed mine removed, but I'm hanging onto it in the hopes it will heal now that I'm gluten-free. It still acts up though. :(

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
