Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 I don't know about a nausea reaction to gluten, but this year's flu can definitely last several days. A number of my co-workers had it earlier this Spring and were sick for over a week. Hope you feel better soon!

In the sickly years before I was diagnosed, I would feel feverish somewhat frequently, but not necessarily nauseated at the same time. So, I guess what I'm asking is:1. Has anyone heard of a stomach flu lately that's lasting several days?2. Has anyone had flu-like symptoms from eating gluten?Who knows -- it could be a combination of the flu and my immune system not reacting well.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 I definitely have had a ‘flu’ when I have had gluten or dairy or soy (intolerance). Just the immune system trying to fight the invaders – in this case food.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 I just had gluten exposure (ok, I actually ate a croissant, chalk it up to an extremely weak and stupid moment), and I feel awful, too. Yesterday was a serious case of intestinal agony, and now I just feel tired and like I'm coming down with the flu. No fever, though, so maybe you do have a bug. Hope you feel better!

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Hi -- I hope you're feeling at least a little better by now. For what it's worth, a few people here at work have been out with a particularly bad stomach flu. My guess is that's what you have ( Take care. I hope you're back to healthy soon!
