ARCHIVED After Eating Gluten, When Do You Get Pains?
Fluffyblue posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Just a quick question - when you have eaten gluten (be it on purpose or accidentally) when do you start getting pains/symptoms in relation to your stomach? I ask because I had a pizza on Sunday lunchtime and although I was really tired and irritable on Monday, I didn't start getting symptoms until Tuesday afternoon. This is the usual pattern, and also... -
ARCHIVED Another Question About Reactions
Fluffyblue replied to CMCM's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I think that when you are eating gluten all the time, you tend not to notice some of the symptoms because you have them all the time and just live with them, and also you get used to the pain in some respects, so when you go gluten-free, you feel better than you have for ages - hence a little bit of gluten ingested when you are gluten free feels worse than... -
ARCHIVED Does Everybody Have A Reaction When Eating Gluten?
Fluffyblue replied to lnr's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I usually feel tired the next day - really excessively tired - and sometimes have a migraine and feel sick with it, but I don't normally get a reaction in terms of stomach pains for two to three days, if that helps. Sometimes I only get the pain reaction two or three days later without the tiredness or headache. I was in the same boat as you - by bloodtests... -
ARCHIVED Do I Or Don't I?

Danielle Thanks again for your speedy response. Doctors in the UK are actually free, and it's really hard to get on another doctor's books if you are unhappy with your doctor. My doctor is Italian he's kind to the eye (!) but it takes twice as long to make him understand what I want from him. There are other doctors at the same practice (that is what... -
ARCHIVED Do I Or Don't I?

Danikali - thanks for your really quick response. What you've said made a lot of sense to me. We do sound pretty similar. Yes, I do mainly suffer from Constipation, but I do occasionally get diarrhea, probably two or three times a month. I live in the UK, so Enterolab is probably out for me. We have a different system in the UK, under the National... -
ARCHIVED Do I Or Don't I?
Fluffyblue posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I've been lurking for a few weeks now, reading all the posts, and gathering a lot of information and this seems to be one of the best resources on the web to find out info on celiac disease. I have been suffering from what my docs told me was IBS for about 15 years now - never been properly diagnosed, and several times a year I will go to the doc with... -
I have had nightsweats for years, and have had "IBS" (undiagnosed) for about 15 years. I have noticed that I have nightsweats when I overeat, or just before and during my period - so for me it could be linked to gluten, and it also seems to be linked to hormones. My doctor tested me for perimenopause about two years ago (I'm now 33) and that showed...
