My Doc Is Going To Test Me For Food Allergies.....

I told him about the reaction I'm having to dairy and like many of you suggested he thinks it could be an allergy vs just intolerance. He's going to run blood tests on a few of my foods I'm reacting to.

Question, do I have to continue eating these foods for the tests to be accurate? He's going to test wheat as well.

The cool thing about this forum is when your advice is verified by my dr! I never thought I could actually have an allergy to milk but I am highly atopic to many environmental triggers so I wouldn't be surprised. My mother is allergic to strawberries and had an anaphalaxic reaction to them, allergies run in my family. You guys mentioned it right away!

So thanks for all the support and advice!

I don't know if you need to keep eating those foods for the test to be accurate. my allergist did skin tests and my food allergies came up right away fiercely.

This is the most recent (I believe). It talks about when to test and so on.

Stephanie posted this in another thread. It's a very good idea to read it before your allergy testing. It's from National Institute of Health so its a very reliable source for info. Might be more reliable than some allergy docs.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By yellowstone · Posted

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
