Glutened how do I stop symptoms?!

Hello, I was diagnosed with Celiac over a year ago and I've been doing pretty well with eating gluten free with little to no reactions. A couple days ago I visited my brother and we ate out. I'm pretty sure I was glutened at a Mexican restaurant. My symptoms when I eat gluten are constipation, bloating and a feeling of a brick/heavy feeling in my stomach. I was wondering if anyone else has these symptoms and if so do you have any remedies? It's very uncomfortable and I am having a hard time enjoying my time being home, thanks!

Yeah with the bloat and constipation I suggest taking Magnesium Citrate for the constipation, I take it daily as a supplement via Natural Vitality Calm, but in higher doses it acts as a laxative. For the gas GasX and teas help, I found using Anise is a life saver with gas issues,

I buy wholesale from the company direct and got a lb of it.

Other then that your going to have to wait it off, -_- I know it is annoying but your going to have to let the antibodies go back down can take 1-6 weeks to be completely gone, I find constipation would clear up in about 5-8 days before I was regular again.

I have used milk of magnesia when I've been glutened to relieve the c and the brick heavy feeling. Take at night with a large glass of water. Usually the next day I go, but then the following day I don't because I've gone so much! But I don't feel bad.

fyi it's gluten-free and I take the full capful as I have what they call "slow transit times" so when I can't go, I need a lot of help.

My experience when i've been glutened as a result of eating out,  is that there is nothing you can do afterwards, except to take it easy & restrict yourself tohome food only. Take it easy for a week or so, and the symptoms should gradually recede, leaving behind a lesson to be extra careful in future!!

Best of luck..

      I'm pretty sure that in stores, you can find plenty of gluten-free options. But they are usually a bit more expensive.

      Hello @BunnyBrown and welcome to the forum. I cannot say that I have had the procedure you describe, but recently I did have general surgery and was routinely intubated.  That pain was what troubled me most after the operation, far more than the operation site.  It took a few days to really settle down, I was quite badly bruised. It was taking so long I was a bit concerned so asked the question on another forum. A few patients came back to me and said they had suffered the same.  I imagine in my own case possibly the throat got bashed about a bit,  maybe they had difficult inserting the tube?  I've suffered with a painful throat post-endoscopy too, but never as long as the intubation pain.   I hope you will be feeling better very soon.   PS BTW - love the name!  I saw this today in an Easter display in a shop and your name reminded me of it.🙂

      This wonderful, Anne. I think you have a point about why people disappear off forums.  I found the first few years post diagnosis a real struggle and frankly wondered if I would ever feel better (not to dishearten people, but just to say it can take a while longer for some folk to heal).  However, once my antibodies were back within normal range it really has made a big difference to my health.  I've chosen to stick around because I'm a Mod, otherwise I might have been one of those that disappeared, too!
