It could be corn or soy. Or dairy after all. Or maybe tapioca or sorghum, who knows? I am afraid you'll have to play detective and use the ingredients from what you made somehow one at a time to see if you react.

It doesn't sound like it is gluten. So, it must be something else.

Pasta or rice is rice. I guess you aren't intolerant to rice. But those flour mixes have a lot of different ingredients, and it appears to be one of those.

Shortly after I went gluten free, and started to incorporate more items with corn, I became intolerant to corn. As soon as it was removed from my diet, my D stopped! You may want to try it and see what happens--even if you try it for a week or two. I know it stinks, :P but your health is worth it! Good luck.

If gluten is your problem, and you've only been gluten free for 3 weeks, then I would assume you haven't fully healed yet. It may not be another food intolerance.

Healing doesn't happen overnight. Even if you are 100% gluten free, your body still needs time to adjust.

I see a few things I'd suspect if it were me.

First, one mix has honey, which I've heard can have gluten. Then there's the yeast. Also, corn products and corn starch aren't necessarily equally safe. Some corn is organic, others are GMO, which I know I react to. I'm not entirely convinced that it need be a common ingredient, but I agree it's a good place to start. The cane juice I don't know much about, as I don't do sugar.

As for guar gum being a laxative, that's what Wikipedia says, but recently I read the opposite :unsure: From my experience I'd have to disagree with Wikipedia this time, sadly. It's the insoluble type which is used in laxative products isn't it?

Here's what Wikipedia says about dietary fiber:

Sources of dietary fiber are usually divided according to whether they are water-soluble or not. Both types of fiber are present in all plant foods, with varying degrees of each according to a plant

      Son's legs shaking

      Hi, My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine...

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
