Roasted Corn

I had gone pumpkin picking at my mother's house the past weekend all I had that morning was a cup of coffee and then when we got to the pumpkin patch I decided I wanted to have roasted corn. I wound up eating about 3 which was not good on my behalf, after the pumpkin picking we went home it was me and my children and my husband and I was fine for maybe about two and a half hours, then all of a sudden I got this horrible horrible abdominal pain it lasted all the way until the next morning which was Monday morning. Monday morning when I woke up I couldn't move at all I have been throwing up all night into Monday and Monday into Tuesday. I'm still not sure what's going on with me it is now Wednesday and I'm a little bit better but I still have this pain in my stomach I'm not sure if it was food poisoning or I just can't eat corn but I have eaten corn my whole life growing up usually out of the can or Frozen and never had a problem like this. If anybody has any advice to give me or if they know about this or had it happen to themselves please let me know because I really don't know what to do I can't take this pain anymore my head is pounding I'm afraid to eat anything. Thanks a lot

That sounds like food poisoning to me, since (1) corn has no gluten in it and (2) you have been eating corn fine your whole life. The only other alternative would have been if they used a coating or spices with gluten in it, but it seems unlikely to me for some reason. 

Hope you're feeling better.

Sounds like food poisoning. Is this the same or similar reaction you get to CC?

Did any of your family have it too? Who cooked it? Did you ask them what they used to prepare it? Was it cooked on a grill alone or in the husk? What else was cooked at the same time?

Did you eat the corn right at the farm?  Was it removed from the husk and roasted or was it washed?  I cannot tolerate GMO corn and get very sick with ANY pesticides, especially Round Up.  Something to think about.

Are you the only one in your family that ate the corn? If others ate it and didn't get sick then that would likely rule out food poisoning. Was it roasted on a grill that may have had gluten foods cooked on it previously? Did they have lots of straw bales around for decoration or to sit on?  So many possibilities. I hope you feel better soon.

How about gluttony?  Three ears?  That much corn can be hard to digest for anyone, let alone a celiac with a damaged gut. 

I hope you feel better soon!

      My bone structure is disintegrating and I’m having to have my teeth removed

      By trents · Posted

      Staci, take note of the forms of magnesium and zinc I recommended. With some of the vitamins and minerals, the formulation can be very important in how well they are absorbed. Many of the vitamin and mineral products on supermarket shelves are in a form that maximizes shelf life rather than bioavailability which, in your case, would seem to be a critical issue. And with magnesium, if you use the typical over the counter form (magnesium oxide) you may find it has a definite laxative effect (think, "milk of magnesia") simply because it isn't well absorbed and draws water into the colon. Spend some extra money and get quality vitamin and mineral products and research the issue of bioavailability. There are forum members who are knowledgeable in this area who may have recommendations. Do you have Costco stores where you live? Is Amazon available to you?

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      And yes, of course it's better to know and we will adjust.  It's just, he's 7 and in our house we can control what he gets. But he plays soccer 3 times a week and in the changing room the boys share candies. I can and will tell him not to accept them any more, but "mistakes" will be made.   I'm really burdened by the potential social impact for him. He so loves to go to a restaurant as a family - I'll guess that's finished. Going to birthday parties at another kids house? I am reading about Coeliacs and apparently the fact that something as much as TOUCHED something with wheat is enough, even if he doesn't feel the symptoms - how can we control that bar from keeping him locked up?    And the worst worry of all: how do you tell a little boy to do all of this to not have symptoms that he does not have. If he'd been having horrible diarrhea or feeling really tired, we could tell him 'see, you feel so much better now, that kind of food was just not good for your body', but now, what will our argument be? For clarity: of course we will put him on the diet, I am not saying I don't believe in the necessity of that, it is just that it will be quite a stretch to 'sell' it to him 😞

      I’m 41. You have helped me achieve the goals of finding a way of getting nutrients into my body so I will see how it works for me. Thank you so much.

      Thank you for your reaction. The reference values are both "<10", although I found a medical paper from Netherlands (I'm Belgian) who use the same values and there the see a positive daignosis as twice more then 200 and a positive biopsie. I didn't see how to change this in my original message, sorry...

      Hi Kathleen Welcome to the forum. I am based in the UK so I am just picking this post up before our US based moderators appear.  I think they will want to know the lab values of both of the figures you have provided us with (min/max reading) as they tend to vary - could you post those for us, please? We see a lot of coeliacs who also have helicobacter pylori on this forum.  I am not sure how that would reflect in the blood results so I will leave this to be answered by my more experienced colleagues @trents or @Scott Adams. Obviously, you won't really know for sure where things stand until you have your meeting with the consultant.  I am sorry that you have to wait, but it will be worth knowing one way or another.  Apart from his recent gastric issues, it is fantastic to know that your son is otherwise a picture of health.  But it is worth bearing in mind that undiagnosed coeliac disease can cause health issues in the longer term, so far better to know now if he does turn out to have coeliac disease and adapt your son's diet accordingly, before other health issues have a chance to appear.
