Help - I don’t know what’s glutening me!

Question

I had severe gluten symptoms for about 20 hours, then they were gone for about 5 hours, then they came back worse. I determined the most likely culprit, but I only had it before the first bout of symptoms. It’s definitely gluten and not the noro virus since I’m not digesting food.

  1. Do you ever have a long break in symptoms for the same glutening, or is it probably a different food that triggered me for the second bout of symptoms? My original thought was that I was glutened by a meal I ate that was not made in a totally gluten free kitchen, which I ate before the first bout. The only new food I had before *both* bouts of symptoms was bobs red mill quinoa with kraft grated parm, but it’s labeled gluten free. The symptoms are so severe I think it may have been a lot of gluten and not a little contamination, so I don’t know what could have done it the second time. Maybe I was still overly sensitive since I was recovering from earlier in the day and reacted to the cheese?

  2. Do you have any tricks, or teas, or hacks to make the gluten symptoms more manageable. I’m so sick and I have two new babies to nurse and take care of and it’s so hard.

Thank you so much for any advice.
