For sure until I stop eating whatever got me. It took weeks before I figured out the buckwheat being cross contiminated.

Four to six weeks. It is positively awful, it's like being drunk for a month or more. I'm slurring words, bumping into things, losing my balance, can't carry on a conversation because I forget I was having one (sometimes mid sentence) and have the memory of a goldfish. That is without the pain and exhaustion. I think I'd rather be on the toilet for 6 weeks tyvm.

Somewhere in the area of a week - depending on how much gluten I ate - ie. cross contamination versus having a meal where the waitstaff erroneously told me it was gluten-free, the latter taking longer to get over.

For me, it also depends on what I do. My best plan is to eat very light, very safe (nothing that coud have any gluten), drink lots of water (lots), and rest. If I am feeling better, physical activity seems to help get me back on track. When I am "down" I also avoid all dairy and soy and graze because it almost seems to affect me like everything has gluten in it - my stomach gets pretty touchy.

Most of the time it's just a few days. Two times it's been about 3 weeks of pain pain pain. I think in those cases it was cumulative gluten over the course of days. Both times I was on trips out of the house.

Four to seven days, depending on the amount. When I did a mini-gluten challenge (small amount of pasta at one meal), it was more than a week.

Are you sure that you aren't confusing your glutening symptoms with plain old.... well old age? :P

Old? ME?! Well, yeah, I've got that. Or, I had that but I seem to have misplaced it. Um, what were we talking about anyway? :blink::lol:

I'm not sure I remember. One of those young whipper-snappers will be along shortly to get us back on track. :D (There is something magical about the day your child becomes an adult that just pushes you off that age cliff.)

Ditto so far. I'm a newbie with little experience but Northern Elf's response rings true for me. I'm on day four after being glutened in a restaurant eating gluten-free food. Although it started out pretty intense, this afternoon, my outlook on life became better which is one of the first signs of "the road back". There are symptoms going down the road and symptoms coming back. Today, I literally had no appetite and when I drank hot water with bitters, lemon & ginger syrup, it comforted me. Here is something I found and it seems to help on those days when my body is saying, "uh, no. No. Please don't put that in my stomach...":

      Ibuprofen

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding

      Oh my goodness medication causing pain !!!!

      By Colleen H · Posted

      I think I found a huge culprit for severe reactions to create worsening of my c symptoms. Do people with celiac have sensitivity and /or have opposite reaction to certain medications Where can I find a list ?  I'm new here I'm.wondering why I am getting worse when I take certain medicine...the burning feet.  Rebound muscle pain so intense  How many people get opposite effects or have a horrible attack after these meds

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Juliane · Posted

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…
