Cutting Out Corn

Gluten free for two months; much better, but still having some unexplained reactions. Food diary suggests corn (had corn on the cob last thursday, was sick all week; popcorn last night, threw it up; had a bunch of jelly bellys (corn starch) and felt not great for a day a few weeks ago). If I have to, I'll go to a full-on paleo diet or elimination diet to figure it all out, but given how hard gluten-free has been, I'm inclined to try just cutting out corn first. So my key question: do I have to go whole hog and cut out everything with any ingredient that could possibly have corn, like with gluten, or is it enough (at least to try to start with) to cut outactual corn, popcorn, and things with a high quantity of corn based ingredients? For example, I love Reese's Pieces, but corn syrup is an ingredient in there somewhere. What do you all think?

You have to go "hole hog", unfortunately. Like gluten, corn is everywhere! Hopefully, Bartful will chime in. She has recovered from a corn intolerance -- so there is hope!

If I remember correctly, you do not have Celiac? Or weren't tested? I am getting dizzy jumping from one topic to another.   :o  Maybe keep some of these questions in one place with all the info we need to know?

 

 

Maybe it's not gluten but something else? You might need to go to a few basic foods and slowly add things back to see if any food is your real issue.

      Why?

      By mishyj · Posted

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.

      Why?

      By mishyj · Posted

      My daughter has celiac disease and has had for a long time. She fell loses strictly gluten-free diet and recently got rid of all cutting boards in any gluten in her house at all. She just had a stool test and it came back showing of gigantic response to gluten in her diet. What could be going on since she doesn't eat any gluten and is very careful about any kind of hidden glue? Help!

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By cristiana · Posted

      I think sometimes the pain described here can be a result of a sort of 'perfect storm' of contributing factors.  Recently I had an appalling bout of lower back pain, lower burning gut pain and what felt like cramps.  I then started to think about what could have caused it and I realised it was several things that had set it off: I'd been carrying heavy luggage (back strain); I had been sitting down in a car for too long and wearing a tight belt (I have pudendal nerve issues and sacroiliac issues and this exacerbates the pain), and I had bloating and burning pain in my colon caused by eating too much soy, latte and caffeine, I guess putting further pressure in the lower abdomen.  I had this same pain prior to my diagnosis and a couple of years post-diagnosis, I'd quite forgotten how unpleasant it was.

      Have this rash forming on the back of my legs. Looking for relief outside of going to the doctor.

      By cristiana · Posted

      HI @Kirbyqueen That's great news your insurance will be kicking in soon.  Sorry to see that you have been dealing with this for six months now, but I do hope you have managed to find some relief with some of the suggestions in the meantime. Perhaps come back and let us know what the doctor says. Cristiana

      Trying to read my lab results

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?
