Somebody said where is the logic, and that DS should only be able to eat their own elements. Don't forget Natsu got sick when eating Etherion. Gajeel could be sick after eating the shadow, so the logic is there, they eat something other than their own element and they get sick. Not even sick, violently ill.
Though Natsu managed to retain the lightning element from Laxus. I also feel maybe he didn't get sick from it because it came from another DS? Or what somebody else said in that lighting and fire may be(or are) closely related. Maybe then Gajeel won't be sick since this shadow also came from another DS. At the same time when you think about it, this gave Gajeel a new form, he's not going to look like that every fight now so it may be a one off power up that will make him sick. Or it could be his SSJ form, since 1st generation DS can't enable Dragon Force on their own, they'd need some sort of other power up.
I may be incorrect about certain details or forgetting something, so please correct me if I am wrong(without sounding like a know it all! Hehe). :)
I believe that you got some of the points right. I think another guess as to how natsu could take the lightning could be that laxus element comes from a lacrima, rogues power partially does so too. another guess i t hought of is that rogues shadow seems to be an enitity of its own, so maybe rather than absorbing the element gajeel let himself be possessed by it and then took control.
