I was curious to hear who else out there has problems with corn? Corn has always hurt me worse than gluten. Anyone else out there have corn issues?

None of us have a true corn allergy, but I get a belly ache every time I eat it. It also tends to send me straight to the bathroom. I love homemade cream style corn and turkey dressing, but that is about all I will risk it for.

I react the same to corn as I do to gluten but can tolerate "VERY SMALL AMOUNTS" of corn starch in my meds. Anything more and I have problems.

I normally get a stomachache after eating corn, any kind... I was curious to see if anyone else has the same problem. Corn products such as corn syrup, dextrose, maltodextrin etc. seems to bother me the most.

Hi my celiac cyberspace friends!

YES, I have a big problem with CORN, RICE & POTATOES too.

Great book you have to buy. BREAKING THE VICIOUS CYCLE by ELAINE GOTTSCHAALL B.A., M.Sc.

The author believes some of us can't eat, corn rice & potatoes.

Hi I'm baack w/ a baad computer with sticky keys. My other computers were infeected with thee DEADLY trojan virus while looking up drug ingeridents alast night. Please bear with me.

My ssysteem cann NOT tolerate CORN or DAIRY. I live a sstrick gluten free dairy free diet since 2001.

The thyrroid medication I'm taking is giving me diarrhea. I take the pill and eat 30 mins later, within 10 minutes in in the bathroom with diarrhea. I'm taking LEVOXYL 75 mcg generic for SYNTHROID. My ddocc is NO HELP! I caalleed thee paarmaacist and I was told another drug LEVOTHYROXINE does NOT contain dairy or corn.

My daughter has a confirmed corn allergy, but avoids it completely. I think the only thing it's in, is her Vitaballs - as corn syrup. She doesn't eat corn tortillas... corn on the cob... corn... I'm thinking she doesn't even like nacho cheese Doritos (corn chips).

Here's my theory on degrees of allergy... Let's use nuts as an example. People with a really bad nut allergy, I'm assuming, have to avoid those products that say "produced in a plant that also produces products containing nuts". So if those people with a high nut allergy have to avoid those foods..... I'd say that people with a high corn allergy must avoid *all* forms of corn as well. Melanie's allergy level for corn was like a 3.6 on the RAST test. I believe they said the high end limit of the test was 16 or 17, so I guess she's not *too* allergic. But then again... her egg level (slightly less than corn, but still a 3.x) they (the allergist) said was "hardly worth mentioning". Okay doc... do you wanna come to my house at 4am and change the bedsheets after she pukes on them? I didn't think so! It's worth mentioning!

Did I just vent? :ph34r:

I lost my train of thought. Hope somebody gets something out of this, I forgot what I was trying to accomplish. :rolleyes:

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
