My son (2) just got his IgG allergy test back. He extremely reactive to eggs. We have removed them from his diet. This was weds night. Today he is showing a lot of aggressive behavior that subsided once we went gluten free. He had withdrawals from the gluten. Could he go through withdrawals from the eggs?

Thanks in advance.

Here's a link to a book on Google Books that seems to say - yes, any food causing an intolerance can cause withdrawals. It gives a detailed description of possible symptoms and the timeline.

Just FYI, I have never heard of this phenomenon myself. My spouse had withdrawal symptoms from casein, but not gluten or eggs.

if the link fails, the title of the book is Food allergy and intolerance By Jonathan Brostoff, Stephen J. Challacombe
Published in 2002. It looks like a really interesting book.
