Reacting to most foods?

Hi all.

I've been tested for Celiac disease and nothing came up so I assumed I had Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivy. I know gluten is a trigger because every time I eat it I get the classic Celiac symtoms like fructose and fat malabsotion as well as the usual digestive discomfort and even autoimmune type symptoms like joint aches and psoriasis that lasts for days.

Here's the confusing part: Many other non gluten foods seem to trigger the same intestinal symptoms as the gluten does. All grains (including white rice), gluten free oats, all dairy (inc butter) as well as white potatoes and eggs.

I also have a host of allergy type reactions to other foods that I have devoped in the last few years.

Has anyone had or heard of similar issues?

My current 'safe' diet is basically limited to beef, sweet potato, some fruit/greens, everyday for a year.

The diet is a blessing, but I fear I may be locked to it until I can figure out what is going on.

Any insight appreciated. Thanks.

TJ

Wow!  Just those few thing to eat?  You have been gluten free for a year and no improvement?  

Were you given the full celiac blood panel?  Did you know that some celiacs are seronegative, yet they can have intestinal damage?   Have you had a Gastroenterologist consult to discuss celiac disease or other illnesses like inflammatory bowel disease? 

Celiac disease and additional food intolerances are commonly linked, but I am sure food intolerances are probably commonly linked in many other illnesses too.  I hope you find answers soon.  I wish you well.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.

      I was diagnosed at 18 months old with celiac and lived without wheat, rye, oats, and barley as instructed by my doctor, Dr. Katz at Boston Children's Hospital in the 60's and 70's. I don't agree nor recommend doctors removing oats from restriction, certified gluten-free or not.  I have eaten certified gluten free oats and have had the usual reactions to gluten.  Please reconsider this with newly diagnosed patients.

      It's great to hear that the trip went well, and the general consensus I hear about gluten-free travel in Europe, including my own experiences, is that it is much easier done in comparison to traveling and eating gluten-free in the USA.

      Safely home from my recent trip to the UK. I had zero gut issues while traveling around this pretty country. Our tour leader was very good at making sure the 2 of us with gluten issues on our tour were well taken care of.  We often got our meals before the rest of the group and adaptations to the menu for us were well thought out and very tasty. I just wish restaurants here in the USA took as much pride in making food that everyone can enjoy. Many of the hotels and pubs we ate at had numerous options that were safe for us with wheat/gluten restrictions to eat.
