this is weird cos I can't seem to find anyone else who has this issue. Most of us agree with gluten intolerance it seems. But even I asked my GI specialist and he was like "that doesn't make any sense!"

basically whenever i eat corn or anything that contains corn or corn starch, I get like a small bump on my lower right back and it hurts and the outside of the calf muscle on my right feels tight and hurts really bad as well. I've read that corn can be inflammatory and I guess its one of those things I just need to avoid as well as gluten. It sucks cos I only recently been gluten free which alone is hard as hell and most gluten alternatives seem to have corn, so now its going to be twice as hard!

Anyone else experience this?

Some celiacs can't tolerate corn, and it is considered a separate intolerance. You might want to look into food sensitivity testing, which Alcat (one of our site sponsors), does.

Some celiacs, like myself, have temporary intolerances to foods, which go away after 1-2 years on a gluten-free diet. I could not tolerate corn for about two years after going gluten-free.

Also, corn intolerance was just discussed in this thread:

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.

      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.

      I received the results that my child has the genes for celiac disease (she is still undergoing testing and it has been complicated). Can someone explain if this is homozygous HLA DQ 2.5 or not? The interpretation just says permissive for celiac disease. Thank you! DQ Alpha 1  05:01, 5 DQ Beta 1 02:01, 02:01 DQ serologic equivalent 2,2
