Symptoms Of Egg Intolerance


Christa1

Recommended Posts

I was just wondering what kind of symptoms anyone gets if they eat eggs or almond butter. I am having a hard time figuring out where my symptoms are coming from and if they even relate to eggs or almonds. I have trouble with peanut butter so I made cookies with almond butter, brown sugar, and egg whites. Those were the only ingredients and after I ate them my chest got really tight and my throat felt like it swelled up. I can't pin down the culprit because I don't even know if these symptoms correlate to the cookies. Anyone who could give me any input or advice would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds like you might be allergic to the almond butter. My brother-in-law is allergic to all kinds of nuts and that is what happens to him. My daughter is allergic to eggs. At the time I didn't know and she had some and her eyes started to swell up and she got itchy all over her body.

Thank you for your input. Peanut butter has never settled well with me so I bet the other nut butters probably are affecting me as well. It is so hard to pin-point the culprit of the symptoms that pop-up. I will just have to stick to my eggless, dairy free, nut free muffins instead of trying to experiment with cookies. Thanks again!

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.
